According to the police on the 25th, the Seongdong Police Station in Seoul arrested Mr. A at the scene around 3:40 a.m. that day on charges of attempted murder for coming to a multi-family house in Majang-dong, Seongdong-gu, where his ex-girlfriend lives, carrying a weapon and threatening to kill her, and is currently investigating him.
