A woman in South Korea has been arrested after allegedly killing a baby she gave birth to in an internet cafe.

Police say the 26-year-old woman allegedly gave birth in the Seoul internet cafe on the 25th of March, before putting the infant in a plastic bag, sealing it, and leaving it in a nearby parking lot.

The woman is now being held in a state nursing facility and will face trial for infanticide.

"She was playing games until right before she gave birth in the cafe's bathroom," a police spokesman in the city's Songpa district said. "She didn't even know her waters had broken.”

South Korea, a nation famous for embracing online gaming, is no stranger to almost bizarre deaths linked to gaming. In 2010, a mother murdered her three-year-old son when fatigued from online gaming.

In the same year, a 41-year old was given a two year prison sentence after he and his wife left their baby daughter at home while spending time at internet cafes, causing her to die of malnutrition.
