Following Lee Sun Kyun's death, all eyes are on the woman who allegedly blackmailed the late actor and fell victim to the police's intensified anti-drug campaign.
As mentioned by a media outlet, former entertainment journalist turned YouTuber Lee Jin Ho uploaded a video featuring messages from the woman identified as "Park."
Titled "Obtaining the creepy KakaoTalk messages that girl sent," the host claimed that he was able to obtain exchanged messages via KakaoTalk between Kim Nam Hee, the female manager of an entertainment establishment, and the hacker.

On October 4, 2023, the hacker threatened to expose Kim Nam Hee's connection to Lee Sun Kyun and reveals it to his wife, Jeon Hye Jin if she didn't follow the instruction to bring 200 million, or an estimated 153,000 USD, by early morning the next day.
Through the messages, she said that she had already obtained Jeon Hye Jin's number and warned him against sending Lee Sun Kyun's 16-minute recording.
Park also threatened the actor not to disclose this to the police and to think twice before replying.
"I hope actor Lee Sun-kyun doesn't lose his honor because of the madam from the adult entertainment establishment. Let's finish with 200 million won."
On the other hand, various outlets also cited that the woman, whom the media calls "Park," has targeted various celebrities.
