According to local Chinese media such as Sohu, Zhang Yi was sentenced to death on December 18 last year. The Intermediate People's Court in Shenyang, Shaanxi Province, China, said, `The motive is vicious, the technique is extremely cruel, and there is no sign of remorse at all" and sentenced him to death. Jang Yi-yang appealed, but was rejected, and the death penalty was immediately executed on the day of the first trial's ruling. This is the first time a celebrity has been executed in China.
Jang Lee began dating victim A in September 2021 when she was 30 years old. During the dating period, Jang Yi continued to threaten suicide by self-harm and dominated A, a minor, with emotional control. Then, on February 26, 2022, when A notified her of the breakup, Jang Yi-yang, who was enraged, called A into the forest in the name of celebrating his birthday and stabbed him several times with a red flag. Mr. A died of excessive bleeding and suffocation. Immediately after the crime, Jang Yi-yang damaged the body and returned home to wash or dispose of clothes and weapons. Later, the hotel tried to make an extreme choice, but was arrested on the employee's report.
