‘Brave Detectives 4’ Uncovers Shocking Real-Life Cases: A Murder with a Screwdriver and a Mysterious Arson

Tcast E Channel's 'Brave Detectives 4' is set to delve into the truth behind a series of perplexing criminal cases.

In the 58th episode airing on the 14th, detectives Shin Jae-jin and Choi Young-chul, along with former KCSI Superintendent Yoon Wae-chul and Inspector Kim Jin-soo, will reveal their investigation logs from cases they personally solved.

The first case presented begins with a shocking report of a woman found bleeding profusely in her apartment downstairs. The victim was discovered face down in the middle of her living room, with a 15cm flathead screwdriver deeply embedded in her shoulder, only the handle visible. There were no signs of forced entry, suggesting the victim likely opened the door herself. The victim, a second-generation Korean-Russian from Sakhalin, had come to Korea with her husband six years prior. Her husband had left for a trip to Japan the day before the incident.

Upon his urgent return, the husband showed no emotional distress during police questioning. More disturbingly, intercepted phone calls revealed him speaking in Russian with another man, discussing alarming matters such as, 'The net seems to be closing in,' and 'I'll be in Seoul soon to pick up the newspapers.' The episode will investigate whether the husband is involved in his wife's death and the identity of the man he spoke with.

Following this, KCSI will present a case that started with a fire at a scrap metal yard within an industrial complex. A woman was found dead in a room on the second floor, the same floor where she lived with her children. Although the scrap yard's CCTV was turned off the night before the incident, detectives discovered nearby cameras that captured a man loitering around the premises two hours prior to the fire. This man had purchased tools from a supermarket and had visited the scrap yard once before. The episode will reveal what happened to the victim and why the man visited the scrap yard twice.

'Brave Detectives 4' airs every Friday at 9:50 PM KST and is also available on major OTT platforms including Netflix, TVING, and Wavve.

Netizens are expressing intense curiosity and shock, with comments like 'These real-life cases are more intense than any drama!' and 'It's terrifying that such things happen in reality. The detectives are truly amazing, I hope the truth comes out!'.
