On the 17th, Yoo said through his social networking service (SNS), "Today, a third young person passed away. Although it is late, the state must step in."

According to the Michuhol Police Station in Incheon, a victim in their 20s of Jeonse fraud reportedly made an extreme choice early this morning. This is the third extreme case involving a victim who could not recover their Jeonse deposit from the so-called 'Construction King.'

Yoo said, "The government and Incheon City must immediately assess the urgent financial difficulties of all victims and provide emergency support," adding, "The government must also find the best solution regarding the suspension of auctions and the guarantee of the right of first refusal, which the victims desperately want."

He also urged the National Assembly, "I hope you will promptly enact legislation to better protect the rights of Jeonse fraud victims," and added, "If necessary, retroactive legislation to help victims should also be considered."
