Former League of Legends pro player "Yaharong", was allegedly involved in a murder case in Hanoi, where a girl was found strangled to death on May 30. Reports suggest she refused sexual intercourse, prompting the accused, identified as 24-year-old Yaharong, to commit the crime. The reports further claim that he was intercepted attempting suicide by jumping off a hotel.

The news was shared by Jesport and they stated "Allegedly he was staying in a Hanoi hotel with his victim on May 30th, when the victim refused to have sexual intercourse with him. After that, Lee strangled her to death, and quickly tried to commit suicide."

Yaharong began his career in August 2016 with the Korean side in the KeG Championship, later transitioning to Jin Air Green Wings for over three years in the LCK. Despite his tenure, Jin Air struggled in the LCK, eventually being relegated to the CK league in 2020. Joining Fredit BRION in the subsequent year as their mid-laner didn't yield favorable results, with the team finishing at the bottom of the standings in both splits.
