The suspect, identified only by his surname Jang, 17, asked one of his friends to kill his parents and elder sister by setting fire to their house, promising to share with him some 300 million won($258,000) in insurance payments upon their death, according to police.

The 15-year-old friend, identified by his family name Kim, allegedly broke into Jang's house in eastern Seoul around 5 a.m. last Thursday, dousing the living room with gasoline before setting it on fire and killing Jang's mother, 49, and 19-year-old sister.

You only read about this stuff in Japanese comic books.

My girlfriend was watching this on the news last night. Apparently the high school student wanted the insurance money so he could live in Gangnam.

Life lesson: Lie to your children about having insurance.

Think of it as a nice going away surprise when you die. Also, you don't gotta worry about being burned alive.

The 17year old kid is obviously not very smart, but that 15 year old is going places.

You don't understand.

They were drunk, so you have to forgive. They didn't know what they were doing. Also have a lot of stress.


Please try to understand the Korean man.

Also, punishing him would bring shame to his family. Better set him free.

I don't agree. They should ban him to Dokdo.

Comments insulting a population are violations of the TOS and in very bad taste. If you feel you need to make comments making fun of Koreans involving a traggic story; there are other sites for that. It ends here.

Grow up.
