On June 29, 2022, a car was fished out of Songgok Port in Wando County, Jeollanam Province, South Korea, and three bodies were found inside, including a 10-year-old girl and her parents. It is reported that the girl's father lost 100 million won due to failed currency speculation, and finally chose to commit suicide with his family. Today, the family is cremated.
According to foreign media reports on July 3, 2022, 10-year-old Zhao Youna is from South Korea. She and her parents have been missing since May 30, 2022. On June 29, 2022, the police fished out a silver car from the seabed 10 meters away from Songgok Port, Wando County, Jeollanam Province, and found three bodies sitting inside.
After confirmation, the three deceased were Zhao Youna and her parents. In addition, a bag of medicine was found in the car, which contained sleeping pills . It is reported that the family drove away from the hotel on May 30, 2022. Surveillance showed that Zhao Youna was held by her mother and seemed to be unconscious, while her father looked very panicked.
South Korean police stated on July 1, 2022 that Zhao Youna’s father began investing in the virtual currency from March to June last year, but now he has lost 100 million won. They speculated that the family committed suicide because they were deeply in debt.
In addition, due to the relatively long time of death, the remains of the three people have been severely decomposed, and the specific cause of death is currently unknown. Since this family did not have much contact with their relatives and their relationship was relatively weak, their relatives decided not to hold a funeral for them but to directly cremate them.
