A 37-year-old housewife and her three children were found dead in a room at their apartment in this southern port city in an apparent suicide pact, police said Saturday.

The woman, whose named was not available, was found hanged by her husband at around 11 a.m. Saturday, police said. The husband was apparently unaware of the death because he was sleeping in another room, they said.

Police, alerted by the 40-year-old husband, inspected the room and found the couple's three children, aged 4, 9 and 10, dead in the same room where the housewife was found hanged.

Police said they were trying to determine the exact cause of death but suspected that the woman might have killed herself after killing her three children.

South Korea has the highest suicide rate among the 30 nations in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, of which it is a member.

we know what it means, but using a rather unfunny meme in such a post ain't that classy...

there's nothing to explain you're just being an asshole and refusing to acknowledge how fucking unwise your choice to post that was

I can understand you meant it in the content of "The horrible people do on this world, makes me want to move to another planet". But the meme comes from futurama as any person would see, it was created in a humors way such as

the beatles suck compared to Justin bieber
I dont wan't to live on this planet anymore meme would be appropriate here...

If you use it in a topic about a person taking her own life and murdering her children in the progress, it is not a appropriate time to use this meme. This can happen, I make stupid mistakes like that also..

But I don't become dismissive about it and call other stupid in almost every reply :)

obviously they didn't know at all

if there are so many people in they shouldn't you think by now that what you said was tactless? instead of backpedaling just apologize jfc.

Do you understand that 'I don't want to live on this planet anymore' implies suicide?

the world sucks and that people are doing bad things. And if there was an alternative world they'd go there.

Did you read what you just wrote? That is what some people think when they have suicidal ideation/thoughts.

By the way, calling someone stupid doesn't help you get your point across. And I didn't attack you, calm down. HTH

That's not a suicide pact...That's a parent killing their children. For it to be a pact, it requires agreement from the other parties, and children cannot consent.

On another note, that's really upsetting and pretty horrific. RIP the children, and I feel sorry for that poor man. I hope he's okay after seeing such a horrible thing. :(

the woman might have killed herself after killing her three children

That is Murder suicide, not a suicide pact.

this is so horrible :c but the husband was sleeping and didn't hear 3 kids being killed?

It didn't say how they were killed...it could have been quietly. But even if it weren't some people sleep really deep. Like they can sleep through tornadoes or their ship sinking.

There are ways to kill people with out making a noise, especially if they're trust. Carbon dioxide poisoning is a major one. If you're sleeping, you would even notice. Drug over dose/poison pill/etc for these kids is probably a good guess. Mommy gives them medicine and they don't think twice about taking them. The man just lost his wife and three kids, no need to get critical about it.

How could he have slept through that? I highly doubt the kids didn't make noise...and it's not like she could have killed them all at once so it would have had to be one by one. Unless she smothered them in their sleep? O.o? Anyway, this whole thing is disturbing and horrible.

I wasn't pointing any fingers at anyone, just asking a simple question. The article obviously doesn't have enough facts available at this point for us to know anything either way. I also feel sorry for the dad because even if he was innocently asleep throughout the whole thing, it's very likely that he would become a suspect in the case. It's just a sad fact of how things usually go for the first person to come upon the crime scene.

Im disturbed by this but im even more disturbed at the fact hey are labeling this a "suicide pact" as though the children agreed to kill themselves.Ummmm no they were murdered, as in killed against their will by their mother and whoever reported it as a pact needs to gtfo!

um. i took a japanese suicide class and though i know this is korea but i'm gonna leave my two cents.
in eastern asian culture the mother believes that the child is a part of her and that the child would be unable to care for themselves and that no one is capable of caring for the child like the mother would. in her apparent suicide it would be necessary in her mindset to take her three children with her...as they are part of her... if you get what i'm saying...

Im going to ignore the pact part since that could just be someone's mistranslation; however I feel awful for these children. If you're going to end you own life, well, that is your own choice (not a good one, and certainly one I would advice against), but don't kill your children too. And the people judging the husband, seriously?! The man already has a dead wife and 3 third, he going to take his guilt to the grave, he doesn't need your judgement.

I want to know why this woman thought suicide is her only choice. OP can you post some follow-up articles when we have more details.

honestly i don't think this is the pressing matter at hand. if the family doesn't want her details released i think we should respect that.

From: [identity profile] hinadori.livejournal.com
You don't thing there'll be an investigation? Details are bound to come out, all I'm asking is for any follow-up info that comes out. A woman just killed herself and her own children, don't you want to know why? Not in the being nosey sense but in the understanding the root cause sense.

this is horrible...not only did she take her own life but her young children's...they were innocent :(

the poor husband, i hope he is getting support for this. though i do wonder what happened, though there are plenty of ways that she could have killed her children silently.
