The parents of missing girl Ko Jun-hee, who was found dead in South Korea last week, had been getting along with neighbours and had a good reputation in the neighbourhood, reports said.
Some neighbours called the five-year-old’s father a “superman.”
The father, surnamed Ko, 36, and his common-law wife, Lee, 35, had been active in the neighbourhood and the residents’ online community.
“Ko was like the head of this small village. The father often posted his private life stories on the village’s online community site,” Yonhap news agency quoted a resident as saying.
Ko often offered to help other residents, such as lending them tools. He put a sticker saying “Head of village” on his motorcycle.
