A teenage student was found dead at an elementary school in Eunpyeong-gu, northern Seoul, with a presumed death note, police said Tuesday.

The student's parents found the body in the playground at 8:30 p.m., Monday. They were searching for their daughter, who had not come home from school, according to police. The parents took their daughter to hospital, but it was too late.

There were no signs of foul play, police said.

“A presumed death note was found inside clothing near the body,” said an investigator.

An investigation is under way.
