South Korean tourist Min Tae Kim's body found in shallow grave after he posted online ad to exchange currency A man's body has been found in a shallow grave after reportedly trying to exchange $15,000 into Korean won. A 28-YEAR-OLD man has been charged with the murder of Min Tae Kim, a South Korean tourist whose body was recovered from a shallow grave in Brisbane's south yesterday. The body was recovered at Dakar Rd, Algester. The accused, from South Brisbane, is due to appear in the Brisbane Magistrates court this morning. Mr Kim, 28, was only weeks away from going home after a two-year working holiday in Australia when he vanished on Monday. Police had been investigating ads he placed on a Korean website to exchange his Australian savings before he left. Mr Kim was last seen at about 1.30pm Monday when he went to meet a man who had contacted him about his ads. The Courier-Mail found the ad Mr Kim placed last Thursday on Austory.kr, a popular website for South Koreans working and holidaying in Australia. Big money, $12,000. I'm selling the money at the exchange rate on 960 won per dollar," the ad reads. The following day he made another post on the same website, lowering the rate. Korean man Min Tae Kim's body has been found in a shallow grave in Brisbane's southwest. Police found the grave at the back of a large rental property. Forensic officers spent the day exhuming the grave on a lawn area behind a shed. The relatively open ground is 50m from thick bush and a creek at the rear of the property. Detective Inspector Rod Kemp stressed there was no link between Mr Kim's disappearance and the murder of Korean student Eunji Ban last month. It is totally different circumstances to Eunji Ban, thank goodness. It's certainly not related. I'd like to say that here and now for the community to take some sort of solace in that.
