Mr. A, named Yoari and alumni of elementary and junior high school, told an internet community, “(Yoari) I was from Iljin, I had a lot of hits and accidents, and I dropped out, but I really laughed that I dropped out due to family circumstances. I’m curious to see if I forget all my actions. People who have been abused will have teeth.” I also attached a photo of Lee’s graduation album, believed to be Yoari.
