“Last year or not, there was a rumor that Seongjae was a drug, so I had a quarrel while telling me not to do that.” On November 22, 1995, in the first police investigation, his girlfriend K stated: At the time, the police suspected that 28 injections were traced as signs of drug administration, and that someone in the party who stayed with him had given him the injection and died. The next day, on the 23rd, the police called Road Manager L and conducted a second investigation. Regarding the time of the first discovery, L’s statement was unclear. Earlier, in a police investigation, L stated that he first woke up Sungjae, who was lying on his face in the living room at 6 am on the 20th. However, Lee Hyun-do remembered that when she called to Seongjae’s lodge at 5 am earlier and spoke with L, L woke up Sungjae, but did not wake up. If Lee Hyun-do’s memory is correct, she woke up once at 5 in the morning and then woke up again at 6 in the morning, but in the end, she did not wake up and reported it at 6:40. It is possible to ask if you have missed the golden time.

At that time, the bereaved family, the agency, and Lee Hyun-do were angry when they heard that the media and the police were consolidating their feelings that Sungjae’s death was due to’drugs’. The agency’s representative, Kim Dong-gu, held a press conference with Yuk Mi-seung on the same day after having her shaved as a protest, and strongly opposed Sung-jae’s allegations of drug use. In Seongjae Vinso, fans and fellow celebrities did not end there. Celebrities who were close to Seongjae in their lifetime, such as Shin Dong-yeop, Lula, Kim Jong-seo, Jang Hye-jin, and Koo Bon-seung, also kept their vulgarity. The funeral was ending in the tears of friends, colleagues, and fans. The day I put on Seongjae was very cold. Snow that was not even in the forecast fell. It was Saturday, November 25th. After a labor festival in front of SBS in Yeouido, Seoul, I headed to Byeokje, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do. It took 3-4 hours to make up. The funeral procession moved to Mungyeong Saejae, Gyeongbuk, the place of worship. It was the place that Seongjae wanted to live someday. K was also together that day. On the way to Jangji, Seongjae told the condolences that he was left-handed rather than right-handed. 2)

It was late at night, half a day later, when I arrived in Saejae. Upon entering the middle of the Sobaek Mountains, a wide site appeared. The starlight was brilliant. Seong-wook stood on the hill with the ashes. Yuk Mi-seung and his bereaved family picked up a handful of bone meal and sprinkled it in the air. It was the turn of K and his friends. The bone meal became a white shadow and scattered into the wind. The fans cried. Miseung Yuk also stole tears from the hem. Although the funeral was over, the police had not been able to find a breakthrough in the investigation until a week after the incident. After receiving reports of suspicion about her girlfriend’s behavior, she investigated three times, but did not find any clear suspicions. Still, the police postponed to 28 injection marks, and were inclined toward drug accidents. This was the reason the investigation into the possibility of death was neglected.
Police “accident” vs. national fruit tree “possibility of killing”
When the police were buried in the sixth sense of an accident, the national fruit tree was judging that Kim Seong-jae was not killed by ordinary drugs. This was because the drug reaction test results for urine, blood, and hair requested were negative. “Oh, this is it!” Hee-seon Jeong, director of the drug poisoning department, finally found out the identity of the substance in Kim Seong-jae’s body. It was Wednesday, November 29th. It was found after 8 days of oversleeping and expanding the range to 50,000 compounds and 100,000 compounds. The first thing we discovered was an animal anesthetic called tiletamine. The second substance was zorazepam, widely used as a stabilizer. The two substances were diluted in half and sold in veterinary hospitals under the name’Zoletil 50′. When I received the product from the Veterinary Association and tested it, it was consistent with the ingredients from Kim Seong-jae’s blood and urine. In 1 ml of blood, 0.85 μg of tiletamine (microgram, meaning 1/1,000,000 grams) was detected, and 3.25 μg of zolazepam was detected.
After hundreds of experiments, Kim Seong-jae, then head of the drug poisoning department, Jung Hee-seon, discovered’zoletil’ in the body. The decisive clue in solving the case came not from the police, but from the bureaucracy. MBC broadcast screen capture
In fact, the police request was whether or not drugs were detected. There were injection marks on the arm, so I had to find out if there was any possible drug abuse, even with animal anesthetics. This is because there was a possibility that the use of animal anesthetics for abuse purposes led to death. However, no matter how much I searched the literature, it was difficult to find cases of abuse at home and abroad. I also inquired by fax to a researcher at the U.S. Drug Investigation Agency I knew. In the United States, the same ingredient, terazol, is included in the drug regulatory list, but the answer was that there were no smuggled or abused cases. For what reason was it administered to the deceased? The question grew even bigger. Along with the drug test results, the fact that Joletil 50 was found in Kim Seong-jae’s body has not been notified to the outside. On the afternoon of Friday, December 1, K made a call to someone at the public telephone booth near S Apartment in Yeouido. It was a call to determine K’s fate. K’s actions on this day became the subject of contention during the trial. “Teacher, I have to meet you for a moment and tell you something.” K said to the man over the handset. “Who are you?” “If you meet, you’ll know who you are.” 3) At the time K was calling the man in question, Kim Kwang-hoon of the autopsy who received the analysis result from Jeong Hee-sun wrote the following autopsy report. “△The point that the injection needle is limited to the right upper extremity △The distribution of the injection needle is irregular, but the point that he tried to inject along the veins of the upper extremity △In the case of Bonshi, it is said that he was usually right-handed. It is very difficult to inject this directly △At the time of the discovery of this city, no syringe could be found △There were many (28) needle marks △The point that drugs that are not commonly used were administered, etc. Judging by this, it is difficult to rule out the possibility of killing.”
Kim Sung-jae’s autopsy report prepared by the National Fruit Tree. There are six reasons to indicate the possibility of death. The fact that no syringe was found on site was another situation that showed that the likelihood of an accident was slim in that it meant someone had removed the syringe.

K and manager L are banned from leaving the country
On the night of December 3, Mi-Seung Yok was more surprised than the KBS current affairs program, which reported the suspicion of Kim Seong-jae’s death. ‘Tracking 60 minutes’ was based on a detailed examination of the noodle fruit without revealing the specific drug name, “The drug that Sungjae Kim administered… It is a new type of drug that has not been found in domestic drug patients. Kim Sung-jae died in connection with drug administration.” It was an obvious misinformation. Yuk Mi-seung couldn’t stand the broadcast of Seong-jae as a drug addict. The prejudiced police investigation and irresponsible reporting of speculation by the media were unacceptable. Mi-Seung Yu thought he had to take action. On Monday, December 4, Mi-Seung Yuk made a request for information on KBS 4), and then visited the lawyer’s office in Seocho-dong, Seoul. We talked about what we heard and seen regarding the suspicion of murder. Mi-Seung Yuk had deep doubts as he reiterated the words and actions K showed after the incident. Mi-Seung Yuk filed a petition written by a lawyer to Prosecutor Ahn Won-sik of the Western District of Seoul District Prosecutors’ Office. K, who had been rumored to leave Japan, asked for a ban on departure and investigated her for murder, and asked to properly reveal Sungjae’s unfair death. The fight between Mi-Seung Yuk and Mi-Seung, which changed the easy police investigation, began.
It was the petition filed by Kim Sung-jae’s mother, Yuk Mi-seung, to the prosecution on December 4, which made the police investigation, which was temporarily concluded by the accident, turned into a possibility of death.

The fact that the police investigation wasn’t too harsh was the reason Mi-Seung Yuk filed a complaint with the prosecution. Even in the eyes of Mi-Seung Yuk, a housewife, the police’s initial investigation was poor. The party at the hotel said that the police dispatched to the Swiss Grand Hotel around noon on November 20 did not even preserve the scene. The police, who reappeared four days later, said that they went after looking at the back of the sofa on which Seongjae was lying. On Tuesday, December 5th, an autopsy report was notified to the West, indicating the possibility of death. It took 4 days for the fruit tree to be accepted in the West through internal approval. It was in the afternoon that the autopsy results were known to reporters entering and exiting. Immediately, reports of the discovery of zoletyl, an animal anesthetic in Kim Sung-jae’s body, were wired up, but the police were still focusing more on the investigation of the accident rather than killing. However, Prosecutor Ahn Won-sik of the Western Office concluded that the case of Kim Seong-jae was fully re-invested, reviewing the petition received the previous day (4th) and the autopsy report delivered that day. In the criminal department, Ahn Won-sik, who has thick bones, instinctively felt that there was no small chance of being killed. On this day, K and manager L were banned from leaving the country. After 15 days of the incident, the investigation was in a different phase. On Wednesday, December 6, Mi-Seung Yuk was astonished when he saw the news. This is because the’animal anesthetic’, which the Shaman Park Soo-Dang, who possessed Seongjae on the previous day (5th), really came out of Sungjae’s body as a result of an autopsy. At the recommendation of acquaintances to appease Seong-jae, Mi-Seung Yu reluctantly accepted the true wedding ceremony and held a ritual at a store in Gongdeok-dong, Seoul. When Mi-Seung Yuk asked “How did you kill it?” he replied, “I put medicine in the syringe.” When Mi-Seung Yuk asked, “What is an injection drug?”, he replied “An anesthetic for animals.”5)
Animal anesthetic’zoletil 50′ detected in Kim Sung-jae’s body as a result of autopsy. It was marketed with a diluted solution with half of the anesthetic ingredient tilletamine and the nerve stabilizer zolazepam mixed in half. At that time, it was used for surgery in veterinary hospitals, but it was a material that was not well known to the public. Hankyoreh materials
The shaman who spoke of animal anesthetics in the marriage ceremony
On this day, the shaman gave a story about the people who attended the Jinweon Festival that could not be known except for Sungjae. To a sick friend, “Hey, what do you do because you are not in good health? do not worry. I’ll help you,” he said, and to a senior in business, “Hyung is too big, so it’s a mask. But if you wait a bit, it will be okay.” Friends and Mi-Seung Yuk shuddered in front of a concrete statement that cannot be overlooked. Was it really the soul of Seongjae? The more I thought about it, the more odd it was. On the afternoon of Thursday, December 7th, a man called the Banpo Police Box and said that he had a report on the Kim Sung-jae case. It was a crucial tip that changed a person’s life beyond the direction of the police investigation. By Oh Seung-hoon, staff reporter [email protected]
