‘Korean and K-pop Are Our Life’: What Ghaziabad Triple Suicide Case Wrote in Diary Before Suicide; Chilling Details Emerge

Ghaziabad:Disturbing details have surfaced in the Ghaziabad triple suicide case after investigators recovered a diary allegedly written by the three minor sisters who were found dead at their residence. Though the diary has not been officially made public, sources closely associated with the probe have revealed its contents, offering a troubling insight into the mental state of the sisters in the days leading up to the tragedy.

According to sources, the diary repeatedly mentions the sisters’ deep emotional attachment to Korean culture, particularly K-pop music, Korean dramas, and online gaming. One of the entries reportedly states that “Korean and K-pop are our life”, suggesting an intense psychological immersion that investigators believe played a significant role in their isolation from real-world relationships.

Addiction to Online Gaming During Pandemic

Police officials said the three sisters had become addicted to online gaming during the COVID-19 pandemic, a period when prolonged lockdowns forced children indoors and increased screen exposure. The girls allegedly spent nearly all their waking hours gaming, often without breaks, for the past two-and-a-half to three years.

Family members reportedly told the police that the sisters gradually withdrew from social interactions, stopped engaging in routine activities, and became increasingly detached from school and family life. Their fixation on the virtual world intensified over time, with Korean pop culture becoming a central emotional anchor.

Emotional Distress Reflected in Diary

Sources said the diary entries reflect emotional turmoil, feelings of loneliness, and a sense of disconnect from reality. The writings allegedly suggest that the sisters found comfort and identity in fictional and online spaces, while struggling to cope with real-life pressures.

Investigators are examining whether the girls were experiencing depression, anxiety, or psychological distress, though no formal diagnosis has yet been confirmed. Police have also ruled out any immediate signs of external pressure or foul play, stating that the case appears to be linked to mental health challenges and digital addiction.

Police and Experts Raise Alarm

Senior police officials described the case as a wake-up call for parents and society, stressing the need for greater awareness around children’s mental health and unsupervised digital consumption.

Mental health experts consulted during the investigation warned that excessive gaming and obsessive engagement with online subcultures, especially among adolescents, can lead to emotional isolation, distorted perceptions, and severe psychological consequences if left unaddressed.

Investigation Ongoing

The police have sent the diary for forensic examination and are analysing the sisters’ mobile phones, gaming accounts, and online activity to build a clearer picture of their mental state and influences. Statements from family members and teachers are also being recorded.

Authorities said further details will be shared once the investigation is completed.
