[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Yeon-ju] Lawyer Kang Yong-seok, who is embroiled in allegations of fabricating an assault case involving famous blogger Dodomom (real name Kim Mina) into a rape injury case, remains silent without making any statement.

As of the morning of the 5th, Lawyer Kang has not issued any response to the Dispatch report that raised these suspicions.

Earlier, Dispatch reported on the 4th the conversation between Kang Yong-seok and Kim, known as 'Dodomom,' from 2015.

According to the conversation disclosed by Dispatch, the two falsely and exaggeratedly accused executive A of a securities company of a rape injury case instead of an assault case to obtain a large settlement amount.

In this process, Kang suggested to Kim to add charges of sexual assault to increase the settlement amount. Kang also appeared to inform Kim of specific activity plans.

Kim filed a complaint against A in 2016 for assault and sexual assault, but the prosecution closed the case without indictment. The prosecution judged that there was no sexual assault by A, and regarding the special injury charge, the two parties reached a settlement resulting in a suspension of prosecution.

It was reported that during the police investigation, A admitted to the assault but denied any sexual assault.

Previously, 'Gaseyeon,' featuring Kang Yong-seok, exposed allegations including the sexual assault suspicion against Kim Gun-mo, sexual harassment allegations against male celebrities appearing on 'Infinite Challenge,' corruption suspicions involving Yoo Jae-suk and PD Kim Tae-ho, and rumors about Kim Gun-mo's wife Jang Ji-yeon.
