“I thought something urgent had to happen because he was running, but after a few seconds, I heard a sound like ‘Ack!’ Aak!’ about three times. ”
The man who was attacked was taken to hospital but eventually died.
This is the place where the event took place.
After committing the crime here, the suspect immediately fled in his car that was next to him.
The attacker, a man in his 50s who ran away, was caught by police in Gyeongju, Gyeongbuk, after 1 hour and 40 minutes.
The two men, who are YouTubers, have been criticizing each other on their channels for the past three years, and have filed more than 100 cases of defamation and insult by the police.
Those involved in the assault case were due to appear in court today.

“Wasn’t any hatred against the people who participated in the YouTube video or something like that on either side become a reason for some kind of conflict? ”
Police plan to apply for an arrest warrant for a man in his 50s on charges of murder as soon as they complete their investigation into the motive for the crime.
