Attorney Kim met with reporters at the entrance of the 1st floor of the Seoul Central Prosecutor's Office this afternoon and said, "It is Jo's position that there are fewer paid members of Dr. Bang than known through the media, etc." It also included duplicate members, so it would actually be less.

The prosecution is also conducting an investigation into Mr. Kang Mo (24, prison of confinement), a social service agent at Yeongtong-gu Office in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, starting at 2 pm today.

Mr. Kang is known as a social service agent who provided Mr. Cho with personal information of the victims he identified.

The prosecution is said to have captured the situation that Kang actively participated in during the investigation.

Kang was prosecuted on January 28 for allegedly requesting 'retaliation' from Mr. Cho after accessing the information system computer network of the ward office and inquiring about the personal information of the victim woman A (34) and her family. In trial.

In 2018, he was sentenced to a year and two months in jail after serving a sentence of one year and two months in jail for fear of threatening Mr. A's personality, and he was detained again in January of this year.

It was reported that Mr. Kang was not involved in sex crimes related to the nth room, and he mainly claimed to be responsible for cashing in the profits of cryptocurrencies arising from crimes under the direction of Mr. Cho.

Prosecutors have caught up with Mr. A in the telegram message shared by Mr. Kang and Mr. Cho and launched an investigation.

In a prosecutor's investigation, Mr. Kang was said to have generally accepted and reflected the allegations of crimes against Mr. A.

Prosecutors are investigating further charges against Mr. Kang that have not been prosecuted.

He said he had no plans to conduct a major investigation into Cho and Kang.

Four people suspected of engaging in the operation of the doctor's room, including Mr. Kang and Han (27), who were accused of conspiracy with Jo, are currently being tried under the Seoul Central District Court.

The prosecution plans to summon and investigate further charges if the charges are revealed.
