[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Gyumin] The police are summoning a civic group that filed a complaint against Kim Eo-jun, who raised suspicions about First Lady Kim Geon-hee receiving Dior sponsorship, for investigation.


Seoul Mapo Police Station is investigating Lee Jong-bae, the representative of the civic group Rule of Law Restoration Action Solidarity (Beopse-ryeon), who filed a complaint against Kim on charges of defamation by spreading false information under the Information and Communications Network Act, starting from 10 a.m. on the 23rd.


Before the investigation, Beopse-ryeon stated, “Spreading conspiracy theories suggesting that the First Lady received sponsorship is clearly false information and shows intent to damage her honor,” adding, “Raising indiscriminate suspicions and damaging the reputation of the presidential spouse with false information is a very barbaric and cruel form of violence.”


On the 3rd, Kim raised suspicions on TBS Traffic Broadcasting’s ‘Kim Eo-jun’s News Factory’ that the jacket worn by the First Lady at the KBS Open Concert held at the Blue House on the 22nd of last month was an unreleased outfit, implying that she received sponsorship from Dior.



In response, Beopse-ryeon filed a complaint with the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office on the 7th, stating, “Yellow checkered dresses and knits identical to what the First Lady wore were recently delivered all at once to Dior stores in Korea, and it was confirmed that she chose and purchased the jacket,” accusing Kim of defamation.
