▶Next is Professor Seo Kyung-duk's full text

The doorbell rang at around 12 p.m. on the late 20th and opened the front door, and three police officers came.

I was also surprised because it was too late, and when I asked what it was for, he said he visited to make sure his personal safety was safe because a death threat was posted on the Internet.

A very serious death threat was posted in the comments of an article by a media outlet, and a netizen immediately reported it to the National Police Agency after confirming it.

Currently, the National Police Agency has launched an investigation into the publisher of the post..

Until now, Japanese far-right forces and some Chinese Internet users who are immersed in Chinese thought have long threatened to kill them with DMs on my mail and SNS.

This is because we have always responded justly on the front lines against the distortion of history between Japan and China.

However, it came as a considerable shock to me that such a post was posted in the public comments section of the domestic portal.

Anyway, the reason why I'm disclosing this situation like this is to ask our followers a favor.

If you find such comments, posts, etc. in the future, please make sure to capture them and send them to my DM.

Now, we will not overlook it anymore and respond strongly legally.

Above all, my wife and daughter were very shocked by this incident.

We will continue to deal with it well in the future.
