▲ Hee-jin Lee attending the appeal proceedings


Lee Hee-jin (33), a rich stockholder of Cheongdam-dong, who is being sentenced to prison sentence for illegal stock trading and investment attraction, has been confirmed late by extreme choice.

Seoul's Suese Police Station said on July 27, Lee's associate, A, was found dead in a apartment complex in Daechi-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, where he lived last month.

The suicide note was not found, but the police had taken their own life and the incident ended, considering that A was taking the usual depression medication and there was no sign of a hit.

A is a well known figure to victims who has been boasting of her acquaintance with Lee through the social network service (SNS) as an aide to Lee Hee-jin of 'Cheongdam-dong stock rich'.

According to the victims, Mr. A tried to avoid the incident by calling the victims in 2016 when Lee's suspicion of investment fraud began to appear and a slogan was posted on the Internet.

A has not been charged with Lee's case, but Lee's behavior has been depressed since it was revealed as an investment fraud.

Lee is indicted on charges of violation of the Capital Market Act and the Regulation on Regulation of Similar Behaviors and the Fraudulent Punishment of Specified Economic Crime in 2016. He is sentenced to five years in prison and 20 billion won in fines and 13 billion won in penalties. It is in progress.

Recently, Lee's parents were murdered in Anyang, Gyeonggi Province, and police arrested Kim (34) as the perpetrator and sent him to the prosecution for suggestion of arrest.
