Mr. Cho made a wallet in the name of Dr. Amo, the doctor's office. Mr. Lee is an accomplice who has delivered the crime proceeds to Mr. Cho.

In addition to this kind of bank account, Mr. Cho also posted a fake wallet address found on the Internet to Telegram.

The situation in which Mr. Cho washed the deposited cryptocurrency several times was also identified.
