Kim Ha-seong, who is actively playing in Major League Baseball in the US,
was blackmailed by
a fraudster who extorted 400 million won (KRW),
and attempted to extort more money.
Angered by this, Kim Ha-seong reported the fraudster, Im Hye-dong, to the police for blackmail,
exposing the fraudster to the world.
Turns out,
Im Hye-dong had already extorted 300 million won (KRW) from Ryu Hyun-jin.
He has a criminal record.
Extorted 300 million won from Ryu Hyun-jin too... Im Hye-dong arrested on charges of blackmailing Kim Ha-seong
Im Hye-dong (28), who is embroiled in a truth-seeking battle with Major Leaguer Kim Ha-seong (29, San Diego Padres) over allegations of assault and blackmail during a drinking session, is facing the possibility of arrest on charges of extorting a large sum of money from Ryu Hyun-jin (36).
While working as Ryu's road manager in 2021,
he extorted hundreds of millions of won using their conflict as leverage.
People might think,
Since he must have done something wrong,
he naturally paid 300 million won (KRW)
to quickly resolve the issue,
and they would also wonder what weakness he was caught with.
Baebae's thoughts on this are as follows:
Ultimately, what they want is
money.
Therefore, resolving it with money is
the easiest way, and
to avoid having to beg,
Baebae also values money and
has been diligently saving and investing it.
So, getting entangled with these malicious set-up criminals is just bad luck,
and simply giving them the money and letting them go
is the least troublesome approach.
That's why
these incidents keep happening.
They scratch and claw wherever they can,
pretend to have a minor injury,
and bring up assault,
and those cyber-wreckers jump at the chance.
These malicious individuals are determined to shame the celebrities,
and cyber-wreckers and the media jump on it,
starting a national broadcast of their disgrace.
Former anchor Son Seok-hee also
experienced this shame.
At the police station,
paparazzi-style reporters, including those from major newspapers like JoongAng Ilbo, Chosun Ilbo, and Dong-A Ilbo, are always lurking.
They make deals with detectives,
get hints from them, and then release exclusive reports
to boost their viewership.
And then, some celebrities resort to extreme measures.
This is the difference between ordinary people and public figures.
In other words, being famous and the burden of that fame
can outweigh the value of one's life.
A reporter friend of mine at C Ilbo also engaged in this kind of practice during his early days.
Ryu Hyun-jin and Kim Ha-seong must have been dumbfounded,
but since what can be solved with money
is the easiest thing to do,
regardless of right or wrong, they probably just paid the money.
I did the same.
However,
after reading this article,
I'm filled with regret.
Im Hye-dong, who got a taste of money from Ryu Hyun-jin,
would have targeted Kim Ha-seong again.
After receiving 700 million won (KRW) through two set-up schemes,
will he truly repent and live a life of remorse for the remaining 70 years of his life??
It's like Kim Jong-un, the fat North Korean dictator,
sincerely hoping for reunification – complete nonsense lol.
I, too,
whether it's my employees,
business partners,
or customers,
if someone approaches me with the intention to extort something,
I'd just give them 80% of the amount they want
and get rid of them.
(Because I used to think that time and consideration were more valuable than money.)
In the end, I gave these set-up criminals
the fruits of their successful scheme,
and I feel guilty for inadvertently contributing to the creation of another victim.
Looking at cases like the extortion of hundreds of millions of won from Ryu Hyun-jin and Kim Ha-seong,
or the case of these malicious set-up individuals who extorted money from the late actor Lee Seon-gyun.
It's just unbelievable.
Now,
since I've publicly disclosed my real name and business locations,
I believe that similar cases of blackmail and extortion may occur.
Recently,
a visitor who stayed at my pension
requested a refund after checking out,
claiming that condensation had formed on the windows.
LOL
Oh my...
So, they complained about the discomfort caused by condensation on the windows,
and asked for a refund,
so I blocked their number.
But they also invaded my blog,
leaving comments, so
I blocked them there too.
Lol
I think it's important to stop simply giving in to what these malicious set-up individuals want just because it's inconvenient to deal with them.
I believe that taking a proactive approach is crucial
to prevent the creation of more victims.
Those who have an incredible knack for sniffing out money
The best course of action is to avoid them.
They often inhabit places like
entertainment venues, online casinos, cryptocurrency communities,
stock tip groups, gambling dens, and nightclubs,
so it's best to avoid them.
Just like how Count Dracula shudders at the sight of a cross and garlic,
these malicious set-up individuals
get freaked out when you start talking about books,
so I should frequently mention books in my conversations from now on.
I filmed a video of myself revealing my face on YouTube for about 10 hours,
and when the video goes up soon,
I anticipate being subjected to even more blackmail and extortion.
I'm broke,
so please forgive me.
My semi-retirement life
actually means
that I'm half-retired and half-washed-up,
so please have mercy on me,
you malicious set-up criminals.
