Lawyer Noh Jong-eon and lawyer On Kang Go-eun of the law firm filed a petition for the National Assembly's consent to Article 70 of the Information and Communication Network Act on confiscation of profits and punitive damages for the spread of fake news by cyber-leakers on the 22nd, and began to receive public consent on the 26th.
The petition for national consent will be referred to the National Assembly-related standing committee if the number of consent reaches 50,000 within 30 days after the website is released.
According to data from the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, 8,712 cases were filed for defamation under the Information and Communication Network Act in 2023. Only 1,889 cases (21.7%) of them were handed over to trial, and 1,609 of them were concluded with summary fines. In other words, defamation under the Information and Communication Network Utilization Promotion and Information Protection Act (hereinafter referred to as the 「Information and Communication Network Act」) stipulates a fine of not more than 7 years in prison or not more than 70 million won, but 85.2% of those charged are completed with fines.
Lawyer Noh Jong-eon said, `The reason why indiscriminate fake news against celebrities continues to be mass-produced is that these current legal structures and practices are inherently structural problems that make big profits for cyber-recursors.' `So-called cyber-recursors frequently pocket enormous YouTube profits as pseudo-media while avoiding these social responsibilities, neutrality, and fairness of the media, or extort money and valuables from victims under the pretext of broadcasting. Unfortunately, however, it is difficult to prevent this with the current legal system", he explained.
He said "Cyber-lecker was born with the infamous YouTuber 'Entertainment Director Kim Yong-ho', and many celebrities suffered enormous damage to their fake news."However, little damage relief has been done for them, and it is the current reality that more cyber-leakers are generated and fake news is being mass-produced out of control."

Lawyer Roh said "For all profits (channel profits, advertising profits, profits obtained from blackmail) received by Cyber Recker from mass production of fake news, it is time to use the profits to recover the damages of victims who were damaged by fake news, or to consider the system system system in which the state confiscates and collects all of the above profits."," he said, urging attention.
Meanwhile, on the 10th, the YouTube channel 'Garosero Research Institute' released a call recording containing circumstantial evidence that some YouTubers belonging to 'Lekka Alliance' threatened Tzuyang with the past to extort money. In the early morning of the 11th, Tzuyang directly confessed that he had been assaulted and extorted by his ex-boyfriend A, who was the CEO of the agency, for four years. Foot-and-mouth disease, caracula, and Jeon Kuk-jin (main work inspector) that appeared in the transcript released in the Garosero Research Institute are under investigation by related agencies. In particular, an arrest warrant was issued on the 26th for blackmailing and intimidating Tzuyang (Park Jung-won) for foot-and-mouth disease and national attacks. The foot-and-mouth disease and the national team are accused of extorting 55 million won from Tzuyang in February last year as an excuse for their past relationship with Tzuyang and her ex-boyfriend.
