[The Chosun Ilbo, November 14 2007] Man Films Himself Committing Suicide

A man in his 20s filmed himself committing suicide. The man identified as Ahn was found dead in his room in an apartment in Guri, Gyeonggi Province, on Tuesday afternoon. His grandmother called the police, saying when no sounds were heard from the room, she opened the door and found her grandson sitting on the bed with his head covered in a plastic bag. A digital camera found in the room contained video clips of the man putting his head in the bag. Police are questioning family members to learn why Ahn, who was preparing to take the civil service exam, killed himself.
