Thank you, Sean, for keeping this case alive - these women really are without emotion and conscience but, I guess the lure of money can be very corrupting. Really enjoy your breakdowns. 💜
Sean, this is all very frustrating to me. At this point I could care less about, the court of public opinion!! I want those pitiful authorities that pressured Lee Sun-kyun to THE POINT OF SUICIDE to put the same pressure on the upstairs neighbor! I'm not interested in her or her child care issues and none of that shouldn't have any bearings on the judicial process or her length of time served!! Upstairs, downstairs, they both have a shady past! Why are they allowed to still walk around and in the position to continuously cause harm?!! Yes, unfortunately he had flaws, who doesn't?!! This all should be handled forcibly and swiftly. Enough already!!
When will Korea start treating its citizens well, who, with talent and genius, do a lot for the country's image in the rest of the world? How absurd this tragedy of the great actor Lee Sun Kyun, a remarkable man, who was sentenced to death for a matter that only concerned his wife and children, and an unfounded suspicion (3 tests were negative) of drug use.
And again, thank you very much for collecting this information and explaining it to us logically. For people like me living in Europe, figuring out what the ongoing lawsuit is about is truly an impossible task. Yes, chapeau bas for your work! BTW. Now what comes to my mind is, among others: such questions as whether these two terrible women should not be tried as recidivists and therefore the sentence should not be more severe? What is it like in Korea? And my intuition as a woman tells me that there is at least one more layer to this tragedy because it is hard to believe that Lee Sun Kyun took his own life just because of the ongoing drug case and this grotesque (as you can see) blackmail.
Totally agree, did any ctv cameras pick up the actor and one of these women together his last day? It seems the actor and manager had to be intelligent than the jailbirds.
Why is she allowed to bring her baby to the court in the first place? This is not a play ground and since she does this on purpose, even more so they have to stop her. What a dam lame excuse that she has provided and it is even accepted? The baby is a victim and should not go thru in this way. She is an id..... and clearly birds of the same feather flocks together with the same conning ideal. I hope there will be justice to Lee Sun Kyun. Thanks for sharing 😍
So if the police had done their jobs and gone after the two women when Lee Sun reported them instead of trying to pin him - he might still be with his family... Can the money, if any retrieved, be given back to the family...what an insult if these women walk away without any penalty AND keep the money
I hope the judge notes in his sentence the proof of how manipulative the blackmailer is using her own child to gain sympathy. Lee will never see his sons again.
It’s sad that pretty soon, all of this will be forgotten. Just yesterday’s news. A woman is without her husband, those two boys without their father, the world without an outstanding artist who was forced to take his own life because he saw no way out. What a tragedy!
Only a narcissistic psychopath would take a baby into a courtroom with them. Its definitely not winning her any points with the judge. Thank you for the update ❤
Malignant Narcissism described in this After Skool program. Too much fear/terror to look at one's own behavior & admit the "error or their ways". Korean netizens????? th-cam.com/video/K6LPai6M_j8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=9xDQM7ug3XPgZQ69
Thank you for an updaite. He made one most fatal mistake by not going to authorities strait away which cost him his life and subsequently his family, friends and entire world lost one of the talented and wonderful human beings. Unimaginable tragedy. 😢 May he rest in power, love and peace. 💜🙏💜
Justice for Lee Sun Kyun. Not only on the blackmailers, but ALL those who have failed him (ie. the police, media, politicians, and netizens, etc). Shame on ALL of them. Rest in peace and may you and your loved ones find healing. My heart breaks at the injustice they have suffered. We lost a talented and beloved man, all for what?
Murder , someone took his own life because of them ! I'm not saying he was an angel, but he Lee Sun Kyung is no longer with his family, friends ,wife and his precious children ! He needs justice , his widow and kids his parents his friends , his fans want justice , Korea the world is watching take care of your people ! Extra care to people in entertainment Remember everybody makes mistakes
This is great reporting Sean! The way that you present the information and timeline is so clear and easy to follow especially for international fans who may not be as familiar with the Korean legal system. I am sure that we all appreciate the effort you put into presenting this to us, you have obviously done a lot of research and homework about this case. I also want to thank you for the previous videos that you posted on this topic. You appeared as devastated and as emotional as I felt upon hearing the sad news. Thank you for the sensitivity you have shown to Lee Sun Kyun, his family, friends and fans. Keep up the great work! Thanks for keeping us in the loop.
Also poor Lee Sun-kyun, his friend “Kang Sangjin” is now being used as witness for his blackmail case, when this could have stopped if they did this in the first place and he would still be alive.
Hello from Costa Rica💓I've been following your coverage and really appreciate how respectful you've been. ❤ Also, I feel bad for the actress' son... what kind of mother takes the kid to Court and keeps the poor thing crying and frustrated. She is a disgusting human being and I hope karma hits her and the other woman hard. Peace to all the victims here🤍
I feel like going to South Korea and go in front of the court and do a hunger strike. I can’t believe the government is not doing anything about this. At least they should apply pressure to the judge and expedite the trial and sentence these blackmailers. Lee Sun Kyu is a national treasure! SMH😭. Thank you Sean for this update❤️
Tks alot for the updates, Sean. But aren't the 2 conspirators in jail awaiting trial. They will not be charge as first degree murder, but they should be charged as homicide. The indirectly caused Lee Sun-Hyun demised. I can consider him as one who had not committed any crime before, thats why he was easily blackmailed for 350,000 USD. On top of that the police r taking the chance to glorify their department by getting an artise whom they thought had been taking drugs & in order to see the case goes through, they leak it to the press to seal Lee Sun-Hyun fates. Thats a very cruel way to act on someone who had not been proven guilty. I really hope that the blackmailer & conspirators rot in jail forever for their evil mind.
I'm so frustrated with this whole story. I know in the States we have a really messed up judicial system, but it seems like, in every step of the way, by nearly every individual possible, they dropped the ball. Never mind, Lee Sun Kyun was an amazing actor and beloved, he was a person who deserved to be treated like a person and heard and have things investigated properly. It feels like the cops were generally hoping for a big case, which would inevitably mean, big promotions. And instead of looking at him as they should have, they took advantage of the whole situation. Thank you for continuing to talk about this case. It feels like so many people have let it go. Side note, and completely of topic, I'd love to hear your opinion on Somyi getting 12 months of jail time for false accusations of SA, but men who commit actual SA, along with other horrific acts, get less time. I just generally don't get the justice system. Really, here or abroad.
Hi Sean. Work and school going at me hard and I am a bit behind. Have their been any updates on this? How will this work over there? If she if found guilty will she be held responsible for facilitating his passing? ANYONE online or in person that pushes anyone to the point where they feel their only option is to opt out needs to do prison time!!! Lots and Lots of prison time. You never know the full mindset and mental capacity of anyone or how much they can take in dark times. Anyone that is bullying or blackmailing others obviously does are heartless so let them see what being heartless buys you.
I also wish to thank you so much Sean for all your posts on this and visiting Lee Sun Gyun s final place on this earth with such respect. You shine a light very clearly on the case and I thank you for that. As you point out many are culpable, but I hope these immoral greed obsessed women face punishment for their crimes
thanks Sean for the update of this case, do hope justice for Sun-kyun will prevail soon. BTW, do you know if Sun-kyun's wife and family can get the money back which Sun-kyun paid to these 2 blackmailers?
Sean, we know he must have been despondent, was he drawn to this spot because of family ties, childhood friends, school ties? ( Always wondered where he bought the charcoal brickett to begin the fire) Does Seoul have ctv's anywhere?
very sad to hear that even do this two Gangsters lead to the Actor commit suicidal act for all the shame he was going trough will not be severe punish it’s beyond my comprehension hope they get locked up for 50 years at least
And also on October 19th when it started that Lee Sun-kyun was involved in the drug case, that’s when he reported the blackmail (because he didn’t know, he was filming), which is why the police probably didn’t believe him since they were focusing on the drug case like you said
I still wonder, how these people had such easy contact with the blackmailer the women, because back in November MBC program who interviewed the blackmailer at the time (which they said they didn’t know) and then these so called “friends” just meet with this women at the Gangnam restaurant like….
Thanks Sean for keeping us up to date. How old is that child she keeps carrying round? And who is the father? It can't have been very old while all this corruption was going on! It still makes me so sad that they caused this man to take his life,the pain he and his family must have gone through is horrendous to think about, 😢
It is so upsetting and twisted: Lee Sun Kyun had no other choice than to kill himself (if he really did) for only a SUSPICION??? (suspicion of drug use, and adultery) Have they at least did a post mortem drug test to clear his name???? Now here are these two who PROVABLY committed series of the meanest things and shall dance away from the court, with punishment if any, for illegal SIM-card use and some other minot thing???? No word about blackmailing, etc.? Blackmailing is not a crime in Korea? Provably causing the death of someone, is not a sin, not a crime? They can simply go on and continue their lives???? And what about the court of public opinion which I realized by now is very ..... strict (and cruel) in Korea, to say the least? And what about the police who persecuted him to suicide. This is all very-very unjust! Thank you for not letting his cruel fate to fade and seeking justice for Lee Sun Kyun and warning for others not to be let to have a similar fate! #JusticeforLeeSunKyun
I was a mid (and later upper) level manager in a publicly traded company. Was occasionally doing coke on the weekends. A few casual friends that had no connection to work knew about the drugs. If you are "famous" and live off your image, you are taking risks by putting yourself in sketchy situations.
Thank you so much for your complete information❤. The law in south korea is completely unfair. However he committed suicide but actually he's murdered because it was his only way to save his family . I think we can call them the silence murderers.but i hope the two blackmailers punish in a right way . Maybe he rests in peace
I heard that the police officer who leaked to the media Lee Sun Kyun's "little fun adventure" with these pretty ladies, got arrested. I think he's more responsible than these honeys on Lee Sun Kyun's fatal decision. Not that I'm advocating for the pretty ladies but we have to be fair all these would had cleared up in a discreet manner without the circus from the media.
So nice brother thank you for keeping up with the reality updates of this case as he was deceived so sure it's a tough case to unravel could be a suicide but rather an abetment to suicide too so for sure its a murder of different sorts but forcing him to do this not good so hopefully he gets peace now thanks to your updates atleast someone speaks this truths as you do that it's fishy and yet evil in every way
Keeping Lee Sun Kyun's name and story alive is beautiful his legacy will not be forgotten.
Thank you Sean. #justiceforleesunkyun

Thank you for the update such a sad and tragic story over greed
So if the police had done their jobs and gone after the two women when Lee Sun reported them instead of trying to pin him - he might still be with his family...
Can the money, if any retrieved, be given back to the family...what an insult if these women walk away without any penalty AND keep the money

That park blackmailer is really evil to the nth. I say this b/c by bringing the baby with her in court is using that baby to irritate everyone.
Only a narcissistic psychopath would take a baby into a courtroom with them. Its definitely not winning her any points with the judge. Thank you for the update ❤
Elizabeth Holmes had kids to stay out of jail

Merci de continuer l'investigation. Continuons ensembl 😢
Thanks for keeping us updated. I've never seen a person bring their crying baby to their own criminal trial..wild.
Thank for the update
Thank you for the update. This is such a tragedy.
Sean, your keeping this story front and center gives me hope this will reduce the chance of this happrning again.
