The incident occurred late in the evening— around 11 PM on August 31 — according to reports from the Gyeonggi Nambu Provincial Police Agency.

The man (identified as Mr. A) was found by emergency responders in a state of cardiac arrest when they arrived at the scene. Despite being rushed to the hospital, he was later pronounced dead.

Mr. A was being investigated for allegedly threatening to upload illegal sexual content involving minors on social media platforms. It is reported that he had posted such content before quickly deleting it.

Online, netizens reacted strongly to the news.
