Mr. A's crime was revealed by investigating the cell phone of one victim child after a report from the parent of one victim child. The Danwon Police Station in Ansan, Gyeonggi Province, was investigating Mr. A after discovering the correspondence between Mr. A and the victim child. In this process, Mr. A confessed to other crimes he committed and was eventually arrested on April 14.



The judge said, "It deserves criticism for using children and adolescents as tools to relieve sexual desire. It seems that the victims will be a major obstacle to their lives in the future." "We took into account the fact that the illegal photos taken by the victims were not distributed to an unspecified number of people, and that they cooperated with the investigation by voluntarily submitting their mobile phone to an investigation agency."



The netizens who heard the news said, "If the parents of the victims had not reported it, would you have confessed? What confession is that?", "4 years is too short to rape and surrender to ordinary women. They are showing reactions that they cannot understand, such as "It is too much to give".
