Amazingly vague details. Some healthy person is found dead in a public building with no report on cause of death. Yeah. If you know the history of this former leader, her family, they are historically connected to the fascist regime of post WW2 Korea. Which were mostly supported directly and indirectly fascist Japan and America.
Really feels like a means of the far right in South Korea using a political assassination, especially as the current leadership of South Korea is farther left than it has been in awhile.
I imagine many reporters wouldn’t be too eager to dig too deeply into a story like this. If the hypothetical murderers can get to a high profile judge, who has enough power to literally sentence former national leaders? If you can get through that person’s security, what hope does a reporter have of staying safe if they uncover something they shouldn’t?
I’m actually curious if anyone has any info on South Korea. I know about the fan death belief. And I also know of South Korea’s history with dictatorship. But in real life, have the two ever crossed? Has fan death ever actually been used to cover up a political murder?
The South Korean National Intelligence Service (NIS) has been involved in several controversial cases in the past, including the assassination of President Park Chung-hee.
In some crime themed manhwa, the NIS is also portrayed as a terrifying organization in the eyes of the police and the public.
Sure. High profile judges frequently drop dead without warning… Nothing to see here

It was probably just stress. /s
Must be the wind.
Probably left a fan on in his bedroom.
