August 31, 20242 yr From The Thaiger A night of camaraderie and drinks in Pattaya turned into a nightmare when a 62 year old South Korean tourist plunged to his death from the 10th floor of a hotel in the early hours today. The tragedy, which has left friends and police searching for answers, unfolded at around 5.05am, sending shockwaves through the popular holiday destination. Local police, led by Police Lieutenant Phuttharak Sonkamhan of Pattaya City Police Station, swiftly responded to the scene at a 38-story hotel in Nong Prue subdistrict, Bang Lamung district. Forensic officers from Chon Buri’s District 2 and rescue teams from Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan Pattaya joined them in their investigation. The lifeless body of Byung Yong Lee, a farmer from South Korea, was found on the 5th floor, entangled in a grove of trees. The 62 year old had fallen from the balcony of his 10th-floor room, suffering fatal injuries. Despite the severe trauma, initial investigations revealed no signs of foul play. According to hotel staff, Lee and a group of fellow Korean tourists had checked in the day before. Lee’s friend, who had shared a room with him for over 30 years, recounted their final hours together. After a night of drinking, Lee’s friend awoke to find him missing. Disturbingly, the deceased’s shoes were still in the room, leading his friend to check the balcony, where he discovered Lee’s body below. He immediately alerted hotel staff and security, who contacted the police. Through a translator, Lee’s friend expressed his shock, noting that while the deceased South Korean national had been noticeably intoxicated, how he ended up falling from the balcony remains a mystery.
