[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] It has been reported that the landlord of the house where Jo Doo-soon has been living since his release on the 12th requested Jo Doo-soon's wife to "vacate the house."


According to residents of Danwon-gu, Ansan-si, Gyeonggi Province, on the 14th, the landlord of the house where Jo Doo-soon resides (2nd floor) asked his wife, Ms. Oh, to leave before Jo Doo-soon's release. However, Ms. Oh reportedly refused, saying, "There is nowhere to move."


The landlord stated that they did not know that Ms. Oh's husband was Jo Doo-soon when they signed the contract. One resident said, "I understand that the landlord even returned part of the deposit."


Additionally, a netizen who introduced themselves as a tenant living on the 3rd floor of the same building posted on an online community related to Jo Doo-soon, saying they want to transfer the monthly rent and move out, and uploaded a video verifying that they are actually residing there.


This netizen said, "I signed a contract with a deposit of 5 million won and a monthly rent of 250,000 won, and moved in a month ago. It seems that (Jo Doo-soon) moved in afterward," adding, "I asked the landlord to return the deposit, but the landlord only told me to wait and has not responded. Please tell me how to get my deposit back. I really want to move out. I'm going crazy."


Jo Doo-soon and his wife have not gone outside for three days since the 12th.


Meanwhile, individual broadcasters such as YouTubers who gathered at Jo Doo-soon's residence and caused disturbances are currently unable to enter the building due to police control.



The police have deployed about 100 officers, including a mobile patrol unit, near Jo Doo-soon's residence to block outsiders' access. They have also booked and are investigating eight people, including Mr. B (21), who caused disturbances at the scene on the day of Jo Doo-soon's release and the following day, on charges including obstruction of official duties.
