The deadly gaming session began on August 3.He only left the PC to go to the toliet and nap briefly on a makeshift bed.
"We presume the cause of death was heart failure stemming from exhaustion," - a police officer said.
In an interview with the daily JoongAng Ilbo, former work colleagues and staff at the Internet cafe said that Lee recently quit his job to spend more time playing games.
South Korea, one of the most wired countries in the world, has a large and highly developed game industry.
