The 'Frog Boys' of Daegu
Five boys who went to catch salamanders on Waryongsan on 26 March 1991 vanished; their remains were found on the mountain in 2002.
1991 CE · 35.88, 128.53 · status: unexplained
The account
A huge search turned up nothing for eleven years. Forensic study found marks on the skulls suggesting they were killed, but no one was ever charged; the 2011 film Children is based on the case.
The sceptical view
A crime, not a mystery of the supernatural kind; the failure of the original search remains unexplained.
