Testimony and evidence have emerged indicating that Kim Soyoung (20), the suspect in the "Gangbuk Motel Serial Murders," exhibited a strong obsession with food. Immediately after committing her first murder, she sent a message to her date saying, "I want to eat pork jowl and pork belly." Following her second crime, she reportedly used the victim's card to order a large amount of food.

On March 15, The JoongAng Ilbo reported details of Kim Soyoung's actions before and after the crimes, based on testimony from Mr. A, a man who survived after coming into contact with her, as well as mobile phone records. Kim Soyoung was recently indicted and detained by prosecutors on charges of killing two men and injuring another by giving them drug-laced drinks. Mr. A met Kim Soyoung immediately after her first murder and could have been her next target, but ultimately survived without harm.

According to the verified message records, immediately after her first crime, Kim Soyoung sent Mr. A a text expressing that she wanted to eat pork jowl and pork belly.

It was also discovered that on February 9, when Kim Soyoung committed her second murder, she left the motel and used the victim's card to order about 130,000 won worth of food, including chicken, and brought it home. The order reportedly included around 20 different items such as "chicken sauce packs" and "instant rice."

Despite already having eaten with Kim Soyoung twice that day, Mr. A testified that just before parting ways, she asked him to buy her a hamburger and butter bread as well.

Used men as tools to satisfy her desires

Attorney Nam Eonho, representative lawyer at Vincent Law Firm, described Kim Soyoung as "an unprecedented psychopath," saying, "After forming a relationship with a man, Kim Soyoung would commit murder as if 'unfollowing' someone when she decided he was no longer useful."

It has also been reported that Kim Soyoung would often send men information about popular cafes, barbecue restaurants, and five-star hotels in various regions, saying that she "has a big appetite and loves eating most of all." Attorney Nam analyzed, "It appears she used men as tools to satisfy her appetite and material desires," adding, "In order to fill her sense of lack, she tried to extract as much as she could from men."

Between December 14 last year and February 9 this year, Kim Soyoung is accused of giving drinks laced with benzodiazepines to three men in their 20s, resulting in the deaths of two and causing one to lose consciousness. On March 10, the Seoul Northern District Prosecutors' Office Criminal Division 2 (Chief Prosecutor Kim Garam) indicted and detained Kim Soyoung on charges of murder, aggravated assault, and violation of the Narcotics Control Act.
