During their time together, Ga often drank alcohol and beat Ms. L. due to emotional conflicts. On February 16, Ms. L. kicked Ga out of the house because she did not want to live together, so Ga had the idea of killing her lover and then committing suicide.

At around 4am on February 17, Ga rode his motorbike, carrying two knives and a bottle of weed killer to his girlfriend's house. When he arrived, he saw the bathroom light on and discovered Ms. L. brushing her teeth inside.

Ga went in to talk and hug L. but was pushed away. Then, Ga took a knife and stabbed her lover many times in the face, neck, chest, arms and back of the neck. When L. screamed, Ga threw the knife down, took a bottle of weed killer and drank it, then went into the bathroom and locked the door.

Hearing Ms. L.'s screams, relatives next door ran over and broke the door, but Ga ran out. Ms. L. was taken to the emergency room by her family but died.
