    A decomposed female body has been found at a house in Busan, police said Sunday.

    Police found the body at 10:15 a.m. Saturday while searching the house at the request of the woman's family, who said they had lost contact to her for about 10 months.

    The body was in the bedroom and there were no signs of foul play, police said.

    Family members said they had been unable to contact the woman since March or April last year

    A neighbor said the woman ― identified by only her surname Park in her 60s ― "hardly ate" because her health was "chronically bad."

    Police will conduct an autopsy.
