In the winter of 1989, a sense of unease settled over the community of Bellingham, Washington, with the disappearance of 19-year-old Choung Su Mullen. A young woman of Asian descent, Choung was last seen on February 9th of that year. At the time she went missing, she was described as being five feet six inches tall and weighing approximately 140 pounds, with both brown hair and brown eyes. The circumstances surrounding her last known moments are vague, leaving her family and investigators with a painful void of information. The official record simply states she was last seen in Bellingham, offering no further details about her activities or companions on that day. The days turned into weeks, and then years, with no sign of Choung. The initial investigation, led by the Bellingham Police Department, struggled to gain traction without significant leads or witnesses. The lack of information regarding her disappearance created a challenging environment for law enforcement to piece together the events of that February day. Her case, logged under the number 89B05513, remained open, a quiet but persistent reminder of a life interrupted. As time went on, the active search efforts began to wind down, but for Choung's loved ones, the hope for answers never fully faded. Decades later, the case of Choung Su Mullen remains unsolved, a poignant cold case in Whatcom County. Information about what she was wearing or any personal items she may have had with her at the time of her disappearance has not been made public, adding to the mystery that enshrouds her fate. The passage of time has only deepened the questions surrounding what happened to the 19-year-old. Her disappearance is a somber narrative of loss and uncertainty, a story without an ending that continues to trouble those who remember her and the investigators who have yet to close her case.
