We also covered how the suspects lured the victims.

The suspects were found to have approached the underage victim by deceiving themselves as a 'flame'.

Sexual exploiters 'L' and 'M' first approached Twitter to lure underage victims.



She introduced herself as a member of the 'Flame' that uncovered the nth room case, and deceived the victim that personal information and photos had been leaked.



M said in an interview with SBS reporters that she "was a young child, so it would have been difficult to make a rational decision at that moment if personal information had been leaked."



She said that she had to catch criminals through hacking in order to prevent leaks, and she enticed them to talk directly with the distributors for a long time.



There was none other than L in the Telegram chat room where the surprised victim entered.



L continued to threaten viciously, saying that he already had photos and personal information, and continued to threaten to send sexual exploits through so-called gaslighting, which dominates the mind.



She tried to access it through a separate social media account called Deviance, where young people post pictures and posts of freewheeling content, M. said.



After confirming that they were the culprits of digital sex crimes, the police are trying to figure out how many more victims there are.



To this end, the police are gathering investigative powers to quickly arrest L and M.



The police plan to check whether the person who is their leader actually exists and whether there are other accomplices or organizations.
