[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jeong-ho] 'True Story Exploration Team' traced a tragic incident caused by a fart.


On the afternoon of the 22nd, MBC's 'True Story Exploration Team' aired a story revealing a tragic incident that started with a fart.


After enjoying a meal with acquaintances, Mr. Jaeseong (alias) received a shocking phone call on his way home. It was that one of the acquaintances who had dined together was stabbed. Rushing to the scene, Jaeseong witnessed the horrific accident and froze on the spot.


Several days later, the 'True Story Exploration Team' visited the accident site. Despite the long rainy season, the gruesome traces remained intact. What was even more surprising was that the terrible tragedy began with a 'fart.' Furthermore, the incident sparked heated debates online as it trended in real-time searches.


Malicious comments such as "It was wrong to fart," and "He deserved to be stabbed" continued to appear. In response, the person involved in the incident courageously stood in front of the camera to reveal the truth of that day.


He shared the story of that day. The taxi driver's behavior was somewhat unusual. Not only did he carry a cleaver inside the taxi, but after the crime, he did not flee and instead watched the victim.


What kind of person could have committed such a horrific act? The production team disclosed the taxi driver's past actions.


Next, 'True Story Exploration Team' revealed the story of a man in a neighborhood in Seoul, whom nearby residents say no one has ever fought with. The reason for the fights is the 'noise' the man has been making for five years.


The man carries a loudspeaker over 1 meter long and makes the entire neighborhood noisy. According to neighbors, he plays 'funeral music' early in the morning and screams into the air. After the song ends, he holds a microphone and pours out incomprehensible words for a long time.


Due to the man's noise, nearby residents suffered severe damage. When the noise starts, daily life becomes impossible. Moreover, even phone calls are difficult, and sitting face-to-face for a conversation inside the house is not easy. One resident who worked from home for 20 years could no longer endure the noise and changed jobs to become an insurance planner working outside the home.


Additionally, they met a woman who received psychiatric treatment due to noise stress. In one apartment where the damage was greatest, 30% of the households eventually chose to move out.


Over the past several years, residents have made countless reports to resolve the issue, but the noise could not be stopped. Police who responded measured the noise many times but said it did not exceed the legal limit. Residents complained that the man adjusted the volume when the police appeared, expressing their frustration.



Meanwhile, 'True Story Exploration Team' airs every Saturday at 8:50 PM.
