[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] It has been confirmed that A, who was with university student Son Jeong-min (22) until shortly before he went missing and was later found dead at Seoul Hangang Park, visited Son's funeral hall to pay respects.
Son's father, Son Hyun, met with reporters on the 4th at a funeral hall in Seocho-gu, Seoul, and said, "A visited the funeral hall with his uncle around 1:30 a.m. today."
Son's father said he did not receive their condolences. He stated, "They (A's parents) did not even show their faces and came with relatives in front," adding, "I told them to leave because it was late." He also said, "It seems they came to pay respects when no one else was around."

Additionally, the police are searching for A's lost cellphone, and Son's father is also making efforts to find it. It is reported that individual volunteers have divided the area and are focusing on shallow parts using metal detectors.
