The National Investigation Headquarters of the National Police Agency announced that at 9 a.m. on the 8th, they were conducting a search and seizure at the headquarters of Eugene Investment & Securities located in Yeouido, Seoul.


The police have booked executive A of the securities firm on charges of violating the Capital Markets Act and are investigating the stock price manipulation case. According to the police, A is known to have been involved in the stock price manipulation process of company B, which was listed on KOSDAQ and engaged in the solar power business.



In 2018, rumors spread that an overseas bio company invested in by company B would be listed on NASDAQ, causing company B's stock price, which was around 2,000 won at the time, to surge about fourfold within two months.
