Married in Secret, Brutally M*rdered Three Weeks Later.. GANGNAM ROOFTOP CASE

On May 6, 2024, a 25-year-old medical student surnamed Choi murdered his partner on a rooftop near Gangnam Station in Seoul, South Korea. Once celebrated for achieving a perfect score on the country's university entrance examination, Choi had secretly registered his marriage to Nam just weeks earlier.

He purchased a knife, arranged to meet her, and carried out a planned attack. In this episode of You Can't Unhear, we explore the Gangnam rooftop murder, the secret marriage, the evidence of premeditation, the trial, and the devastating consequences of control and rejection.
