Three minor sisters aged 16, 14, and 12 jumped to their deaths from their ninth-floor apartment in Ghaziabad's Bharat City Society early Wednesday. A recovered nine-page diary revealed intense attachment to Korean culture and distress over parental restrictions. The eldest sister allegedly wrote, "Korean was our life," expressing anguish over phone restrictions and fear of arranged marriage. Police linked the tragedy to addiction to a Korean interactive "love game." The girls hadn't attended school for two-three years, remaining confined to their room. Their father had restricted mobile phone usage recently, which may have triggered the decision. Mental health experts warn against excessive online immersion, noting adolescents struggle differentiating virtual from real life. (PC: News18)
