31. UPDATE
The way the killer later buried his victims in a mountain, is based on the method of serial killer YOO YOUNG -CHUL, who buried 11 of his victims in a hill near a temple at Seodaemoon-gu, Bongwon-dong. #Signal #TrueCrime #Thread https://twitter.com/sel3nette/status/1090917695036346369

3. Similar to the Kim Yoon-jung case in Eps 1-2, the police at first suspected the kidnapper to be male, when it was actually a female psychopath (as diagnosed later). The motive for the crime was the same: credit card debts.

4. Some of the differences between Kim Yoon-jung's case in Eps 1-2 and the true crime (Park Na-ri's case): the murderer asked for ransom, was married, jobless, and pregnant. She was arrested quickly, currently in prison.

5. Seo Hyung-joon's manhole murder case (Eps 1-2) was based on an unsolved case in Ochang Town, Cheongju City, North Chungcheong province (2009). A hiker found a small scale businessman ("Choi")'s hanged body in a mat-covered manhole, his wrists bound

6. The case was ruled as suicide because of "Choi"'s business problems, but the bound wrists present a problem and questions still persist to this day.

7. The Gyeonggi Nambu serial killings (Eps 2-4). Based on Hwaseong Serial Killings (1986-1991), unsolved rape-and-murder cases that claimed the lives of 10 women. Similar to the drama, a would-be victim was saved (and could describe the killer's face). #Signal #TrueCrime #Thread

8. The Hwaseong murders happened between September 15,1986 - April 3,1991. As depicted in the drama, one of the victims allegedly rode with the murderer on the same bus, the night she was murdered. The murderer is still at large #Signal #TrueCrime #Thread https://twitter.com/sel3nette/status/1090896517123125248?s=19
