#354: Acid POURED Down 6 Year Old Boy’s ...

STEPHANIE SOO
About this episode

He melted onto the street. 

He was 6 years old when he was walking down the street in South Korea. Someone walks up to him and pours sulfuric acid down his throat and all over his face. His clothes were burnt black. The floor had bits of melted flesh. 


Third degree burns over most of his body - the boy had a 5% chance of survival. 

He was rushed to the hospital where he told the officers that the man - “Mr. Kim” who owned the fried chicken shop was running up behind him with the bag of acid. He was the one that did it! 


“Nonsense, acid is liquid. You can’t put it in a plastic bag - it will burn through the plastic.”


That was the police’s response. Had they investigated properly - they would have realized… the fried chicken shop owner was indeed, a little strange.
