Park Soo-hong filed a complaint against his brother, Park Mo, with the Seoul West District Prosecutor’s Office, not the police. Park Soo-hong explained that it is because the accused embezzlement amount exceeded 500 million won.
Lawyer Noh Jong-eon (law firm S), legal representative Park Soo-hong, told JoongAng Ilbo on the 6th that “under the current law, the suspicion of embezzlement of Park Soo-hong hyung exceeded 500 million won and filed a complaint with the prosecution.”
Lawyer Noh said, “Because the client (Park Soo-hong) is a filial son, it is difficult to tell the exact amount because he is worried about his parents.”
There are two corporations under the name of Park Soo-Hong, Rael Co., Ltd. and Media Boom, of which Park Soo-hong is said to have checked only part of Rael’s accounting books. Park Soo-Hong hyung refused to pay the entire account book and was forced to respond legally, and the amount of embezzlement confirmed so far was at least 1 billion won.
According to the adjustment of the prosecutor’s right, which took place this year, the prosecution can only directly investigate crimes of embezzlement that cost more than 500 million won. If a complaint is filed for a case of less than that amount, the prosecution must immediately file it with the police station after explanation.
Park Soo-hong has not revealed exactly the amount of his brother’s embezzlement until now. The first disclosure post commented on a YouTube channel run by Park Soo-hong said “more than 10 billion won”, so it was only speculated about that scale. Park Soo-hong said, “It is true that we have suffered financial damage in the relationship with the former agency,” and while acknowledging the suspicion of embezzlement by the brother-in-law, the exact amount of damage was not disclosed.
After suspicion of embezzlement arose, Park Soo-hong’s side expressed its position to actively respond by asserting that the conflict began with Park Soo-hong’s girlfriend problem.
In this regard, attorney Roh filed a complaint on the 5th, saying, “The nature of this incident is embezzlement.” “Park Soo-hong is deeply sorry for causing inconvenience to many people as a family affair. Without undisclosed disclosure, investigative agencies and courts will try to tell everything.”
He added, “Park Soo-hong will receive an objective judgment on this situation and respond according to the standards of the law without any response to the unilateral disclosure of privacy and scratching.”
