[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] As three days have passed since a man in his 60s with an intellectual disability went missing in Bucheon, Gyeonggi Province, the police have launched a public investigation.


According to the Bucheon Wonmi Police Station on the 16th, a report was received on the 14th that Kim Ho-seon (63), who resides in Sosa-dong, Bucheon, had gone missing.


Kim is of a small build, standing 170 cm tall and weighing 55 kg. At the time of his disappearance, he was wearing a red T-shirt, navy shorts, and a hiking hat. Analysis of closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage revealed that on the day he went missing, he traveled from Sosa Station in Sosa-dong to a gas station in Wonjong-dong, approximately 3 km in a straight line, but his whereabouts have been unknown since then.



He has an intellectual disability and is reported to have lived in China before naturalizing in Korea three years ago after entering the country. His Korean language skills are said to be poor. As the police have been unable to trace Kim’s whereabouts, they switched to a public investigation on this day and are seeking witnesses.
