CCTV Captures Korean Man Beating Up His Girlfriend... The Brutal Footage Sets Internet On Fire

Recently, a South Korean YouTube channel VIDEOMUG shared a controversial video — of a Korean man assaulting his girlfriend — which now has the internet completely outraged.

The violent video showed a drunk man “B” brutally assaulting his girlfriend “A” nonstop for 15 times:

In an interview that followed the horrifying CCTV footage capturing the unspeakable events of the night, A said that she “initially received a phone call from B’s friend“.

B’s friend called me and said that B is drunk and passed out on the street. He asked if I could come pick B up. I said I couldn’t because I’m in Busan and it’s too far. Shortly after I hung up, B called back and said he was disappointed that I didn’t care about his condition.

When A arrived in front of her apartment building, she “heard a loud honk” coming from B’s car. B had drunk-driven to A’s house and waited there…

He knew on which floor I lived, but not in which unit. It has only been three months since we started seeing each other. So I didn’t want to tell him where I lived… I was kind of scared.

… only to harass A. She recalled, “I kept telling him to call a cab and go home. He wouldn’t listen. Instead, he kept trying to follow me inside.”

For over an hour, A and B hassled each other. When A walked B back to his car and insisted he leaves, B began attacking her for “not wanting to spend more time” with him.

B kept targeting A’s face in his attacks, which led to A requiring eight weeks of hospitalization for surgeries and treatments.

At one point, when A fell unconscious, B tried to “kidnap” A by dragging her into his vehicle.

When A gained consciousness, she got off the car and walked away — calling the police for help. Unfortunately, until A decided to share her story with VIDEOMUG, the police remained extremely unhelpful toward A.

I gave the police his name, number, address birthdate, car model and license plate information… only to find out later that they didn’t even go look for him.

For one, B did not get arrested. The police insisted that “there is nothing to worry about” and that “B will not try to get in touch with A because he’s on crutches too.”

There isn’t a huge need to arrest B because he is showing up to be questioned. Also the circumstances are too vague for us to issue an arrest warrant.

Hence, even during the investigation, B continued to call and visit A — making her feel anxious and frightened. Only after the media got involved, the police arrested B for investigating in detention.

Upon watching the infuriating video, Korean netizens are pressing the police and the South Korean government to show B no mercy — while many worry that the court will practice leniency in favor of the offender.
