Shownotes Transcript

A young man calls the police around 3:30 am to report that he had just been physically assaulted by his ex-girlfriend. Officers are dispatched and the caller greets them with a few red scratches on his face. He had gone over to his ex-girlfriend’s apartment to break up with her—but that’s when she went crazy; scratching his face and twisting his arm. The officers ask the man for her name.

Goo Hara. A K-pop idol from the girl group KARA.

 

When the police begin investigating, the man’s story begins to fall apart. If what he’s saying is true, why is there CCTV footage of Goo Hara on her knees—seemingly begging the young man? Why did he email Dispatch, a Korean tabloid, twice during this so-called ‘one sided assault?’ And what does all of this have to do with Burning Sun?

A couple of months pass, and Goo Hara helps reporters blow the lid off the Burning Sun case.

Not even a year later, she is found dead.

This is part two of Burning Sun.
