A Korean man has been shot to death in the Philippines, Koreans living there said Saturday.

According to them, the 41-year-old man was shot to death Friday night while driving on a street in Mandaue, one of three densely populated cities on Cebu Island.

He was reportedly shot by two men riding on motorcycles.

Given that the two did not take anything from him after the killing, police suspect it was a case of premeditated murder.

The victim was known to have run a Korean restaurant on the island.
