“The situation is such that only Mrs. Kim is missing,” the main letter also said.

In addition to the suspicion of receiving Dior bags, the prosecution’s action on the alleged stock price manipulation case of Deutsche Motors, in which President Yoon Seok-yeol’s wife Kim Kun-hee is suspected of being involved, is being delayed. In the legal world, it is pointed out that “the prosecution is only increasing controversy by delaying the disposition period.”

The main issue of the Deutsche Motors stock price manipulation scandal is the suspicion that Mrs. Kim participated as a leader in the stock price manipulation group. Previously, in 2021, the prosecution indicted former Deutsche Motors Chairman Kwon Oh-soo and Lee Jong-ho, former CEO of Black Pearl Investment, who were considered the control tower of stock price manipulation. The first trial ruling was made against them last year, and all nine defendants were found guilty in the appeal trial on the 12th of this month.

In the meantime, the prosecution has stated that it will decide on the direction of disposition after looking at the sentencing results of another person surnamed Son from Jeonju, who is suspected of having played a similar role to Ms. Kim. Mr. Son was acquitted of the charge of participating in stock price manipulation in the first trial. However, during the appeal trial, the charge of aiding and abetting stock price manipulation was added, and as a result of the second trial, he was found guilty on the charge of aiding and abetting. In the legal world, there is an analysis that the result of the second trial court, which acknowledged Mr. Son’s charge of aiding and abetting, is putting pressure on Ms. Kim to conduct additional investigations and indictments.

Although about 15 days have passed since the second trial sentencing, the prosecution has still not revealed in detail the direction or timing of the disposition. While the prosecution’s disposition was delayed, additional suspicions related to Ms. Kim’s alleged involvement in stock price manipulation at Deutsche Motors also arose recently. It is known that Mrs. Kim communicated with former CEO Lee about 40 times between September and October 2020. In a phone call with the Dong-A Ilbo, former CEO Lee also explained, “(It is true that the call came from Ms. Kim’s number), but the actual call was with a male employee.”

In addition, in a letter written by Mr. Kim, who was considered the ‘main agent’ of stock price manipulation, to another accomplice, he expressed concern that “Mrs. Kim may be excluded (from indictment),” and another accomplice, Mr. Min, said to Ms. Kim, “The timing of the sale is The controversy continues as the content of the text message he sent saying, “I will let you know again,” became known. In the legal community, some point out that in the case of the Deutsche Motors case, the Prosecutor General’s authority to lead the investigation was revoked, so controversy surrounding the direction and timing of the disposition may continue.
