[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Ji-hee] Former Minister of Justice Cho Kuk announced on the 15th that he will take a strong stance against Ilbe members who posted insulting articles about his daughter.

On the same day, Cho stated on Facebook, "While an investigation is underway against Ilbe members who poured out disgusting sexual falsehoods and insulting posts about my daughter, similar criminal acts by many other Ilbe members have been detected, leading to additional criminal complaints and the completion of complainant investigations."

He explained, "For the mental health of viewers, I will not introduce the trash-like content of the posts," adding, "I can only say that these are the worst sexual violation posts that can be made against women."

He continued, "'Freedom of expression' absolutely does not grant the right to maliciously and basely spread false information that seriously damages another's honor," and hinted at a strong response by saying, "Even though I am shackled, I will not leave them alone."

Cho Kuk also mentioned that civil lawsuits will be filed against the Ilbe members, emphasizing, "Even if they post the angmangmun (an Ilbe term referring to disguised apology letters) 100 times, it will be useless."
