#338: ‘Parasite’ Actor Found Dead After 2 Women Blackmailed Him & 19 Hour Police Interrogation

In South Korea - there were 2 women sitting inside a prison cell together. One was in for fraud. The other for drugs.

But they had a lot in common. They were both young. Pretty. And wanted a lot of money.

Around the time their friendship developed - on the other side of the world - at the 92nd Academy Awards (The Oscars), Lee Sun Kyun was standing on stage with the cast of ‘Parasite.’

He was at the height of his career - internationally acclaimed actor and family man.

Within 4 years - he would be found dead in his car after a 19 hour interrogation by the police, leaked personal phone calls, $300k lost to blackmailers, and his life completely ruined.

And those two girls - would have everything to do with it.
