SEOUL, July 10 (Yonhap) -- Seoul Mayor Park Won-soon was found dead in northern Seoul, police said Friday, after he was reported missing by his family.

Park's daughter had told police that her father's phone was turned off after he left their home after leaving a message that sounded like a will.

Reuters earlier had further details of the police search as follows:

(EXCERPT)

Hundreds of South Korean police using drones and dogs were searching for the longtime mayor of Seoul, Park Won-soon, on Thursday after his daughter reported him missing, officials said.

The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency said officers were searching for Park around Sungbuk-dong, a district in northern Seoul where his phone signal was last detected.

His daughter reported him missing at 5:17 p.m. (0817 GMT) and said his phone was off and that he had left a message “like a will”, according to Yonhap news agency.

Park left the official residence at around 10:40 a.m., wearing a black hat and a backpack, having cancelled a policy meeting that was scheduled for Thursday morning, according to multiple local reports.

Police have now reportedly found a body.

His daughter reportedly told police that Park had left a strange message before leaving the house, raising alarms and leading to her calling police. His phone had also been turned off and he was unreachable.

Probably not murder, but I think he was compromised and believed that he was discovered.

Didnt another Korean official commit suicide at the onset of the covid epidemic?

Code of honor for officials who think they failed

Still remember when a couple of KAL pilots crash landed their plane and chose to stay in the cockpit and burn rather than escape

Can only assume this must be a minor position for him to not have any police protection.

RIP

Suicide or foul play?

A bit of a lefty from what I can tell. And perhaps didn’t like removing his shoes either.

Seoul has a bigger population than New York City and he doesn't have a police detail?
DeBlasio has a big police detail and he doesn't go anywhere without it. He'd get clobbered for his crimes otherwise.
