The social media account of Cho Min, daughter of former Minister of Justice Cho Kuk, is enjoying explosive popularity.

As of 2 p.m. on the 7th, the number of followers on Cho's official Instagram, which was launched on the 14th of last month, has surpassed 84,000.

Before Cho appeared on the YouTube channel "Kim Eo-jun's Humility is Difficult News Factory," her followers were only about 10,000. In just one day, the number of followers increased nearly eightfold.

She has also long surpassed the follower count of her "dad," former Minister Cho, who was adept at using social media. Former Minister Cho's follower count is in the 7,100 range.

Each post uploaded by Cho received about 20,000 to 30,000 "likes" and hundreds of supportive comments. The post with the most reactions is Cho's profile picture.

The day before, Cho appeared in person on Kim Eo-jun's pre-recorded YouTube channel to express her stance on the sentencing of former Minister Cho.

This is the first time Cho has revealed her face and given an interview since the controversy surrounding former Minister Cho's family erupted in 2019.

Although she was interviewed on TBS, hosted by Kim Eo-jun, in 2019, only her voice was disclosed at that time.

The video was not a live broadcast but a recording conducted after the first trial sentencing of former Minister Cho on the 3rd, garnering about 1.45 million views and attracting significant attention.

Cho said, "For the past four years, I have lived only as the daughter of former Minister Cho Kuk, but watching my father receive a prison sentence made me deeply reflect on whether I was living with integrity. I am confident. I have lived without shame. That is why I made up my mind. From now on, I want to live proudly as Cho Min, not just as the daughter of Cho Kuk, without hiding."

She also explained, "I have already started a new SNS account, and the first photo I posted was taken beautifully in a studio." Regarding concerns that there might be people who harass her through comments on social media, she said, "They are welcome. Please share many opinions."

Meanwhile, on the 3rd, the Seoul Central District Court Criminal Division 21-1 (Presiding Judges Ma Seong-yeong, Kim Jeong-gon, Jang Yong-beom) sentenced former Minister Cho and his spouse, former Dongyang University professor Jeong Gyeong-sim, who were indicted without detention on charges including obstruction of business, violation of the Anti-Graft Act, abuse of authority, and obstruction of the exercise of rights, to two years and one year in prison, respectively.
