In March 26/1991, was a public holiday in South Korea for local elections, and the 5 boys decided to spend the day searching for frog eggs in the streams of Mount Waryong in Dalseo on the western outskirts of Daegu. Later that day, a parent of the children called the police and informed them of the disappearance of his son and colleagues on Mount Waryong, President Roh Tae-woo sent 300, 000 police and military forces to search for the boys, and many people participated in the search of Mount Waryong, and some of the parents of the missing children left their jobs to spend all their time searching for their children.
More than 8 million publications on missing children have been distributed throughout the country, Mount Waryong was searched over 500 times.
Sadly. On September 26/2002, when a man in Waryong Mountain found separate pieces of shoes, clothes, and bones. The man called the police, searched the mountain, and all the children’s belongings and bodies appeared in a shallow pit.
Initially the police said they thought the boys had died of hypothermia, the result of this suspicion, as they found the children’s bodies close together, as if they tried to warm each other. But their parents rejected that conclusion and demanded a full investigation. Forensic experts found the skulls of three of the children showed blunt-force trauma, possibly from metal tools. Police said the children could have been killed by someone.
