At the funeral of the late Kim Ha-neul (8), a victim of the Daejeon elementary school murder case, a flower wreath and photo card from IVE, which she loved during her lifetime, were placed.
On the 11th, at the funeral home of Konyang University, a flower wreath with the message "We sincerely pray for the repose of the deceased" and the name of IVE was placed. A photo card of IVE that Kim Ha-neul had always wanted was also placed alongside it.
Previously, Kim Ha-neul's father revealed in an interview, "Ha-neul's dream was to be like Jang Won-young. She asked for a Jang Won-young photo card as a birthday gift," and added, "Whenever Jang Won-young appeared on any program, she would stay up late to watch it live." He also requested, "It would be appreciated if Jang Won-young could say a warm greeting on the path that our Ha-neul is taking."
In response, IVE's agency sent a flower wreath and photo card in the name of IVE, praying for the repose of Kim Ha-neul.

Meanwhile, Kim Ha-neul lost her life at around 5:50 PM on the 10th when a teacher in his 40s, referred to as A, wielded a knife at an elementary school in Seo-gu, Daejeon.
A reportedly confessed to the police, saying, "I was thinking of killing any child and then dying together." A had taken a leave of absence due to depression and returned to work last December, taking on the role of a subject-specific teacher.
