Wavve crime psychology commentary 'Reading the criminal's letters' (hereinafter 'Reading') host Cho Chang-won reads the letter of Kim Rea, who killed his girlfriend in a dating violence incident, and expresses anger, saying "It's an insult to swear."

The 11th episode of 'Reading,' which will be released at 5 p.m. on the 13th (today), deals with the letter of Kim Rea, who in 2024 at an officetel in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi, killed her girlfriend with a weapon and stabbed the girlfriend's mother more than 17 times, leaving her with attempted murder. Park Kyung-sik, former producer of 'Unanswered Questions' (that is what the program is called in English: Unanswered Questions), said, "The victim who was suffering from dating violence went to meet him with a 'breakup agreement' together with her mother, and the incident occurred," adding, "This is the first person whose identity was disclosed after the Serious Crime Personal Information Disclosure Act took effect."

Kim Rea, who was sentenced to life imprisonment for the incident, denies a "planned crime" in a letter sent from prison, saying, "This is not an incident that started with me drawing the knife first." However, Cho Chang-won immediately said, "From the perspective of someone who knows the case, the first feelings are disgust and anger," and dismissed it as "an absurd claim and an insult to swear," while examining the whole sequence of events in detail. Producer Park Kyung-sik also exclaimed, "Every time I read the letters of bad people, the bar for the legend seems to be raised."

Cho Chang-won analyzes that Kim Rea's letter shows typical signs of lying. He says it shows the characteristic of intentional 'role switching' that simply changes the subject while specifically mentioning things that actually happened. In response, host Seo Dong-ju exclaimed in shock, "Did she hold a contest for saying the opposite? She's a 'another level' crazy person."

Seo Dong-ju, who also opened up about his own experience as a victim of dating violence, offers concrete and realistic advice on how to recognize the signs of dating violence and how to respond if violence begins during a relationship, drawing sympathy. Meanwhile, on the 12th Seo Dong-ju shared on his YouTube channel and social media a photo of a pregnancy test with two lines and said, "The doctor in charge said there is still room to observe a bit more," updating the current situation and attracting attention.<
