Controversy arose when an article was posted on a domestic second-hand trading app offering to forge an ID for just 50,000 won.
An amount of 50,000 won is presented along with the text 'We will make custom IDs for young people.'
This article was recently posted on 'Carrot Market'.
The seller also attached a photo of a sample of the ID card, which also has a hologram to prevent counterfeiting.
However, it has not been confirmed whether the sample photo is an actual ID or a forged ID, and netizens responded, 'Report to 112 immediately' and 'The punishment for forgery will be tough' and 'It seems to be fraudulent with a lost ID'. I also guessed.
The article has now been deleted, but the problem is that it is not difficult to see articles claiming to forge IDs not only on second-hand trading apps but also on other social media sites.
It is unknown whether all of them are true, but if you actually try to forge, you can be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison for forgery of public documents under Article 225 of the Criminal Act.
