the 13th, a man in his 20s, A, was found dead in an officetel in Mapo-gu, Seoul.
The police arrested two friends who had been accused by Mr. A for murder and confiscated their cell phones.
However, as a result of SBS coverage, it was confirmed that a call recording file containing the circumstances in which two people forced Mr. A to withdraw from the complaint was found on this mobile phone.

They are also said to have said that "the police want to work easily," and "there will be investigations, but if you answer correctly, the police will not suspect anything."
After Mr. A, who was actually incarcerated, announced his intention to withdraw from the complaint in May, the police decided not to send the case, saying that the charges were not recognized.
It is also known that conversations depicting the atrocities committed against Mr. A are recorded.
It is said that he also talked about the fact that he stunned and knocked Mr. A, injuring his chin, or hitting him hard in the abdomen.
The two claimed in the police investigation to the effect that "there was no retaliation for the charges and there was no intent to kill."
However, the police are considering using a recording file containing the circumstances of forced dismissal of the complaint as evidence to support the retaliatory murder charge.
The police plan to announce the results of the investigation the next day and send the case to the prosecution.
