A 21-year-old college coed was arrested Sunday for trying to kill her boyfriend who tried to break up with her in Ulsan, southeast of Seoul.
According to police, the 21-year-old Lee stabbed her estranged boyfriend, identified as 28-year-old An, in the neck and back Saturday morning.
An was listed in critical condition. Police said that Lee wanted to have one last night with An and spent Friday night in his one-room studio rental home. She woke up early and attacked him while he was sound asleep.
Lee told officers that the two had been dating for two years but An apparently had a change of heart, telling her that he wanted to end their relationship.
