While YouTuber foot-and-mouth disease was accused of threatening Tzuyang (Park Jung-won), Prosecutor General Lee Won-seok ordered a strict investigation and punishment for YouTubers who distribute malicious content.

On the 15th, the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office was in charge of investigating the foot-and-mouth disease (Lee Hee-joon), who is suspected of extorting tens of millions of won by threatening Tzuyang. The Suwon District Prosecutors' Office revealed the true nature of the racketeering case of foot-and-mouth disease and announced that it will conduct a quick and strict investigation so that it can take a collective action.

In addition to the Tzuyang intimidation case, the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office has indicted the foot-and-mouth disease five times on charges of defaming it by making false statements on YouTube.

The foot-and-mouth disease was voluntarily present at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office without prior consultation. `The reason I came here is to submit all the data on the Tzuyang case to the prosecution, but the main reason is to reveal the true nature of the cartel behind the case and to request the prosecution to protect my personal safety by submitting all the data I know to the prosecution,' he said. `Tzuyang was used as a scapegoat to prevent the largest cartel in Korea. I have never threatened Tzuyang with blackmail."

On this day, the foot-and-mouth disease voluntarily attended and entered the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, but was not investigated, and instead went to the prosecution's civil service office, submitted his cell phone, and returned home.

On the same day, President Lee defined 'Cyber Lekka' as a malicious content publisher and ordered 'Work closely with the police to respond strictly and make every effort to recover criminal proceeds and protect victims.'

In particular, they were asked to actively arrest and investigate if they intentionally posted false content or repeatedly committed crimes to generate profits, or if they threatened or blackmailed the victim. It is also known that simple defamation should be handed over to a formal trial in principle to seek a heavy sentence equivalent to the nature of the crime if the damage is large, such as infringement of personal rights or exposure to privacy.

An official of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office said "The actions of malicious content publishers are a means of making money, such as generating profits, but serious crimes that seriously damage victims of sexual violence and defamation and their families by wrapping them in the name of 'public concern' or 'private sanctions"."

In this case, there are not only the threat of cyberrekas such as foot-and-mouth disease, but also indiscriminate revelations of the `smuggling sexual assault case' and the 'Daldeok concentration camp' incident.
