"Smoking Gun" deals with the killer Jeong Doo-young.
On April 12, 2000, an urgent phone call came in saying, "There has been a robbery at my house, and it seems that my wife has been taken hostage." The police, who were dispatched immediately, captured the fleeing suspect with difficulty. He was Jeong Doo-young, a man in his 30s. He was the very suspect who had been publicly wanted on KBS's "Public Wanted Case 25." While questioning him about other crimes, the police were astonished to hear Jeong Doo-young's confession.
"I might have a devil inside me"
He was a serial killer who committed five robbery-homicide cases in Busan and Ulsan from 1999 to 2000, murdering a staggering nine people. The methods he used were uniquely brutal, utilizing weapons such as hammers, baseball bats, and kitchen knives. Jeong Doo-young targeted wealthy households with the goal of amassing 1 billion won to build a family, committing crimes and ruthlessly killing. One peculiar aspect was that he spared a mother who was raising a 17-month-old baby during the commission of his crimes.
Ahn Hyun-mo noted, "It is incomprehensible that while harming others' families, he thought about building a normal family himself." Lee Ji-hye said, "It's terrifying just to think of how many more victims there could have been if Jeong Doo-young had not been caught," and added, "It is remarkable that the mother of the baby, who bravely sought to catch a criminal who nearly took both her and her baby's lives, could not continue her statement."
Why was Jeong Doo-young obsessed with 1 billion won?
