Mike, I hope you're feeling better since the second jab. It will be worth it! And thank you for sharing.

Another series of awesome videos. Seriously, how do you find the time for all the production? Answer: With the way your going this will put you in a nice economic bracket! Buy a house in Las Vegas, (don't - trust me), get a Lamborghini; second thought Ireland is a lot nicer and cooler. Keep up the great work.

Eddie Glass

After watching this, I am gonna ask Google Translate what tree hundert and turty tree is in Korean.

Lee Ann Scherman

I was teasing... didn't mean to offend you, sorry. ✌

Lisa B

Thanks, Mike. Much appreciated. 💜💙🧡

Lisa B

Mike's in Ireland, fyi.

Lisa B

Oh, to be 34 again. ~ I hope you had a great birthday!

Lisa B

Don't make us write you up, Mike.

Etak Doow

I used to always comment that on his YouTube 😂

Etak Doow

Being nice is free

Lee Ann Scherman

Jeez some of you guys are long winded.😬

Jessica Atkins

There is a statute of limitations on murder 😳 definitely not here in the states

Laura Jane

I'm with Ruth, incredibly well stated :)

Ruth

Well said !!

Also, in case Mike reads feedback—I really want to know if you’re in the US or UK. Your accent is that of a sexy leprechaun (welp, I guess it’s time to start working on a Halloween costume!) but you typically cover US cases (obviously not today), so I’m curious. Also, and this is a tribute to the work you do, you’re not only my only Patreon subscription, but your work is so consistently interesting, thorough, legitimately funny-yet-empathetic, endearing, intelligently presented, and you put so damned much hard work into it that I started out paying double what you ask and am about to double that amount. I used to have a fairly successful blog (back between 2007 and 2012), and I know how stressful and difficult it can be when something you do for fun becomes something people begin to expect and insist on (making it a job, and no longer quite as fun). I remember feeling so guilty and stressed out when I went too long without writing a post, and that guilt and stress gave me anxiety, so I’d become even more avoidant, which fed the cycle until I’d eventually cave and force a post, which was never anywhere near as funny or well-written as the ones that came about organically (and more prolifically) before I’d developed a more widespread following. My point is that you’re killin it (ooooh), deserve to be paid far more than you’re asking (for real, people, if you can pay him more for the insane number of hours that must go into this each week, and sheer talent of the man, please do!!), and that (especially those of us who have ever done media on a semi-professional basis) fully understand the pressure you feel to produce more/justify needed time off, and as such won’t ever begrudge you time away. You don’t owe us diddly, and I live in fear of the day that the pressure of the grind gets to you so much that you take a permanent break. Keep up the good work (shit...um...I mean, please don’t feel pressured to keep up the good work?) and take good care of yourself above all else. The rest of us will consider any breaks you decide to take as a protection of one of our favorite investments.

Kristie Webber

Oof. Dude looked exactly like the sketch. We never found out why his hands were so soft, did we? I know you mentioned he had a hard time keeping a job after his time in the military, but between the time in the military and the fact that his sister-in-law was found “in his shop,” I would assume he’d at least have a few scars and callouses?

Capt. Rick Allen

Thanks Mike

Devin Michael

Wow. This could easily have gone off the rails, what with all the murders, assaults, different locations, a manufactured copycat, etc. But not with That Chapter. Your storytelling abilities iron out all the wrinkles and preempt so much confusion. Brilliant! I will now start your back catalog again, go to bed, and not wake until Friday.

Jill

Police: let’s hide this kid so we don’t have to file all this paperwork, let’s let her mother and father cry themselves to sleep for years while we know the truth yet hide behind a badge. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

JJ

Time off means time off Mike. We command you to do so. Thank you, the management. 😎

Paula Bernardes-Silva

Hello, Mike! What a nice surprise! I wasn't counting on you posting a video so soon, since you said you were going to take a break! Also, yesterday was my son's birthday, so I haven't even checked my mail. Excellent video, as always! And I guess the film you mentioned must be also very good, since Bong Joon-ho is such a great director. I googled it and watched the trailer, and it made me want to see the movie. I also saw Guillermo del Toro take on the film and recommend it, it's very interesting (and short, for those who aren't much patient). Bye, Mike, and take your well deserved brake. Love ya! 💖

Paula Bernardes-Silva

Congrats, Alexandra!

Paula Bernardes-Silva

I thought so, too! It's the most accurate police sketch I've ever seen.

Paula Bernardes-Silva

It was (I'm writing this on the 20th) my son's birthday too! And his name is Dinis, which translate as Dennis! How's that for a coincidence? Congratulations, Denise!

Liz C

There's a AWESOME Korean police procedural called "Beyond Evil" I highly recommend it, I think it must have been based on this case, it's nearly identical.

Maureen Newey

Just gave it a goo. Thanks as always Mike.

Weezie Tara Crihfield

<--- Dead last! Lol

Dahlia

Thank you!

Anna Larke

Another brilliant video, Mike. Always look forward to your new videos x

CloudLasso

Awesome….and great Korean pronunciation.

Jojo

Oh Mikey oh! So wholesome and frightening glad to see your Patreon and sub counts going to the mooooon

Wixl Nin9ty-Nin9r

Thanks for the blessing boss.

Kyle Leonard

That wink tho.

Carols Sweet

Another good one! Thanks so much for doing these Mike. You are the best. When my hubby and I sit down for some tv or videos, he asks what do you want to watch? I say to him "do you want to give it a goo" lol he instantly knows what I am talking about.

Diana Lindqvist

Can't believe I haven't heard of him before. Thanks for your hard work, Mike!

Sunny

oh no it's okay. I do see where you're coming from, but since I did live in Korea for half my life, I did feel the need to clarify. I also lived in US for a big chunk of my life, so I like living in both of those countries.

Rose Tyler

Happy 🥳 birthday 🎂. I hope you had a great one!!!

Rose Tyler

They need to change the laws regarding statute of limitations. It’s ridiculous that he got away with killing so many innocent women and children and also r*pe. This was a very interesting case and I’ll check out the movie. I’m just so sad for the victims and their families. Oh and the little 8 year old girl the police ought to be ashamed of themselves and the ones that covered it up cause they were too lazy to do the work should be rotting behind bars.

dougie

Interesting video. Tragic and frustrating stuff. Wonder why they called him the Korean Zodiac killer?

Denise Boehm

Thanks ladies!

Alexandra Corbo

I can’t believe I only pay $2.00 for this quality ass content that I get earlier than the rest of the world! Thank you for dropping this amazing video on my 34th bday Mike! Love ya too 💜💜

Christy Hoehn

M. j.j. Sch- so sorry I criticized your country. I had no information and I was just reacting to Mike’s story. I’m not sure which case you’re talking about, but the cops sound like idiots. Of course I’m not in favor of rapes in India. There’s another American case that I’m obsessed with- little Summer Wells has been missing almost 6 weeks and as far as most of us know, the cops are really effing that one up too. This country isn’t what it used to be. I had no right to criticize your country.. so sorry- it probably IS safer there than here!

Christy Hoehn

Sung Min Kim- Thank you VERY much for that information! It surely does sound safer than this country ( currently )! The cities are all destroyed, and the murder rate is thru the roof. Thanks to you Korea just moved to the top of my list! Thank you again, (I’m sorry for being rude )☹️

M.j.j. Sch

Yea, this apples and oranges though. You think you're defending your country but all youre doing is showing that you are also callous and irresponsible. No normal person responds to their police ignoring a missing murdered child corpse with "yea but what about those rapes in india? You are ok with rapes in india right? Were great, much better"

Dorvita

actually yeah, really liked this one, was different, great video again Mike.... thank you for all your time, effort and hard work you put into all of these... aye, might not be obvious but we love you too..... Dor ... out!!! :o) xoxox

Peri Jetton

One I’ve never heard before and what a shit that guy is! I’m so happy for the vid as I didn’t expect one. I’m hoping that you are still enjoying some time with family and are able to take it easy some. Love ya right back ✌️

Jennifer Brown

WOW!! Sounds to me like some laws need changed over there.. totally messed up... thanks tho Mike, love ya 😘

Laura Jane

I watched this case a couple days ago on Casual Criminalist. Simon (and Callum and Jen) did a phenomenal job, yet I knew I'd equally enjoy your presentation. I was not disappointed, in the least. Great job and thanks for making me think I was watching the subject matter for the first time.

Ruth

Wow, how on point was the sketch !!! Thanks Mike.

Laura Jane

I imagine he didn't fall for the undercover officers. They were likely the only ones wearing red, kinda a dead give away.

Mila Chavez

Happy Birthday!!! 🎂

DEADisBEAUTIFUL .

Wow. I’d never heard of this before. The little girl being found and then covered up is somehow the worst part of all of it for me. I can’t imagine how that must’ve affected the family. Thank you for sharing this one with us!

Jane Pohl

Thanks Mike

Kelly B

Love all of your videos my friend!❤️ Wanted to throw a few cases out at you that always blew my mind. Please forgive me if you’ve already done them. I guess I’m a new by and have only been watching you for about 9 months. Anyway here’s some that BLOW MY MIND! Lorena Bobbitt who cut off her husband’s penis then jumped in the car and threw his penis in a field. Later two men found his penis and they were able to sew it back on and then he made a porno? 🤦‍♀️🍆 also The Vampire of Daselldurf 🧛‍♂️ Would love for you to a video on these crazy cases. Thanks for all of your hard work!🙏🍆🧛‍♂️🤣

Matt Killeen

Cheers Mike, excellent as usual.

Sunny

South Korean here. As horrible this case is, South Korea is a very safe place in general, and honestly, if you can withstand living in US where they allow people to use firearms and won’t do much about gun violence,you should do alright in Korea. Just don’t go north of the border.

Christy Hoehn

I love ya back, Mike! ❤️

Christy Hoehn

I was resigned to missing you while you took a little vacay.. and WHOOP- there you are! What a pleasant surprise!!! This case is horrendous— The cops are ( almost ) worse than the killer and I have once again ( it never was on the list ) crossed Korea off the list of places to visit……YIKES!

babymeow13

Yaaaaassss, I get off at 7 can't wait to listen while I drive home from work! ❤️

Dena C.

This one made me wonder about the statue of limitations in other countries. Thanks as always Mike!

Denise Boehm

Awesome birthday surprise! I had already prepared myself for a video drought, so I’m extra excited! (Though it’s always weird to be excited to hear about someone else’s misfortune 😬)

Sandy

Mike you are truly amazing!!! ❤

Marty Murphy

This was awesome. Never heard of this case and for some reason, I figured South Korean police would be more ethical than this. Hope they took away the statute of limitations on murder. Great video!

Jacquelin Sainte

I’m a big true crime fan and as I’m teaching myself Korean currently and my boyfriend is Korean, I’m a big Korean fan. Never heard this case so I’m super excited.
