Man living with idol members arrested for setting fire to home

AKP STAFF

A man in his thirties has been arrested for setting fire to a home he shared with idol group members.

According to police on May 16, Mr. Jang entered the villa in the Nonhyeon-dong area of Seoul drunk at around 8:30AM KST, and after fighting with 2 of the idol group members, he got violent, threw things around, and lit the carpet on fire. He's now been booked for attempted arson, and they're questioning him about the conflict. 

There were no injuries as he's said to have put the fire out immediately when one of the idol members contacted the police. Mr. Jang reportedly has a close relationship with the idol group. Police stated, "One of the idol group members contacted the police, and we're currently questioning him. We'll be investigating the details of why he set the fire."

Stay tuned for updates.

Anger can make people do really stupid things.

This man is already in his thirties and he has yet learn to keep his temper in check.

Goodness, for anyone to be hurt thru burns are no joking matter. I have two permanent scars covering my body and one of my foot. And it never fades away. The scaring are very unattractive. For fire burns, damages to inside of body like lungs, vocal cords are very common too. Those guys/girls caught in the situation when it happened must be very frightened. I hope none are hurt.
