So if a farmer found him, does he get the 500 million won reward?

Not if they 'cannot confirm' his identity - Exclamation

I wonder who killed him or if it was suicide. Either way, if it's really him that sucks, I'd like to see him go to trial.

Well, it was 'dead or alive' so if the stiff fits the DNA profile and the finger print matches, he'll get the money. Not that 5억 is a fortune for farmers these days. Nice sum, but Miss Korea contestants aren't exactly lining up to claim child support. Laughing

Lot's of un-answered questions though:
1. How many members of the parlement took payoff and helped him get away?
2. He was supposed to be carrying 2 mil$ in cash. Where's that buried? Treasure Hunt!
3. His female TaeKwondo trainer is Hot! When is she going to get released? and is she available for you know what? Laughing

The feeling is that it isn't him and it is just some poor homeless guy.

The way the police have botched the investigation, it would take an act of faith for anyone to believe it's really him.

He was found 2.5km from his villa (hiding in plain sight? works better if you're still breathing), which had been "thoroughly" searched, in very expensive clothing with a bag that had personal items connected to him and still it took them 40 days to identify the corpse.

Something's rotten in Denmark.

Yoo was said to have had 2 billion won -- yes, with a "B" -- in cash stored in bags. If I was the person who found Yoo, I'd screw the reward and take the cash Yoo supposedly had with him.

The reward said it was for his "capture." I don't think finding his body is the same thing...may guess is that no, he won't.

I suspect he paid off the investigators to help stage his "disappearance" and is now living on his private island in the Caribbean.


Money buys anything in this corrupt country so why should we trust anything they tell us?
