The Unsolved Disappearance Of The Frog Boys | Anna Uncovered
Imagine waking one morning to find out that five boys from your neighborhood have gone missing. Wouldn’t that be devastating? This is exactly what happened to residents from a South Korean village on the outskirts of Daegu city when five boys mysteriously vanished on a national holiday…
It was March 26th, 1991. South Korea was having its first local election in over 30 years and to celebrate the national event, the government declared it a temporary holiday, which meant that school was out! Five young boys set out on what was to be a fun-filled day of adventure. They had plans to catch salamander eggs in nearby streams and ponds on Mount Waryong.
But by the time the sun sets, little did U Cheol-won, Jo Ho-yeon, Kim Yeong-gyu, Park Chan-in, and Kim Jong-sik know that this would be the last day they would ever be seen alive again...
The families of these five boys lived close together in a village on the outskirts of Daegu. Because the houses encircled each other, the children would spend most of their time together playing near the paddy field that was in front of the village.
The boys saw each other as brothers. They had grown up together, and so, would always go out on adventures as a team!
Because March 26th was a holiday, the boys woke up much later than usual. By around 8 or 9 am, these 6 kids from Seongseo Elementary School were playing around Ho-Yeon Jo’s house, one of the residents of the village.
