[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] A petition has been posted on the Blue House National Petition Board demanding the disclosure of personal information of a man in his 20s who entered the home of a mother and her two daughters and murdered the entire family.


On the 26th, a petition titled "Please disclose the personal information of the man in his 20s who committed the triple murder of a family in Nowon" was posted on the petition board. Currently, the petition has received preliminary consent from over 100 people and is under review by the administrator.


The petitioner stated, "Women, who die by the dozens every day, are exposed to many crimes because they are considered 'relatively vulnerable,'" adding, "Although articles about the 'Nowon mother and two daughters murder case' are gradually increasing, the world seems strangely quiet. It should not be quiet. We must not let this pass without action."


They continued, "Currently, since the perpetrator is undergoing treatment after attempting self-harm, the facts have not been fully revealed yet, but it is certain that three family members were killed," and urged, "It is also certain that the crime was committed with premeditation. We request the prompt disclosure of the perpetrator's personal information."

According to multiple media reports, at around 9:10 PM on the 25th, a mother and her two daughters were found dead in an apartment in Junggye-dong, Nowon-gu. The police are considering a man in his 20s, identified as Mr. A, who was found collapsed after self-harm at the crime scene, as the suspect. Mr. A was transported to a hospital, underwent emergency surgery, and is currently recovering.



Mr. A reportedly met the eldest daughter through an online game and, after being rejected, harbored resentment and committed the crime. Investigations revealed that he visited the family’s apartment on the 23rd. It was found that he first killed the youngest daughter who was at home, and then attacked the mother and eldest daughter upon their return.
