"Want to Complain? Change Jobs to LH" Author Sought... Police Raid TeamBlind and LH Headquarters (Update)
[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Gwan-ju] The police have launched a forced investigation into the author of a mocking post related to the Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) on the anonymous social networking service (SNS) for office workers, 'Blind.'
The Cyber Investigation Division of the Gyeongnam Provincial Police Agency began a search and seizure operation at two locations from 3 p.m. on the 17th: the LH headquarters located in Jinju, Gyeongnam, and TeamBlind, the operator of Blind.
The police plan to secure related materials that can identify the author through this search and seizure.
The author posted a message titled "They don't even care internally" on the Blind anonymous board on the 9th, expressing outrage with claims such as "I will diligently speculate under a borrowed name and enjoy my retirement benefits" and "This is the unique benefit and welfare of our company" in relation to the LH speculation scandal. Since Blind requires registration through a company email account, the author of the post was presumed to be an LH employee.
