Kim Beom-soo, chairman of Kakao’s management reform committee, who is suspected of manipulating SM Entertainment’s stock price, appears for a pre-arrest suspect interrogation (substantive examination of the warrant) at the Seoul Southern District Court in Yangcheon-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 22nd. 2024.7.22/News 1

The pre-arrest suspect interrogation (substantive examination of the warrant) of Kakao’s management reform committee chairman Kim Beom-soo, who is accused of manipulating the stock price of SM Entertainment, ended on the 22nd after about 4 hours.

Judge Han Jeong-seok, the chief judge in charge of issuing warrants at the Seoul Southern District Court, conducted a substantive examination of the warrant for Chairman Kim’s violation of the Capital Market Act at 2:00 PM that day and considered the necessity of his arrest. Chairman Kim came out of the building with a stern expression around 6:00 PM.

Chairman Kim got into the prosecution escort vehicle without answering reporters’ questions such as “What did you explain?”, “Do you admit to the stock price manipulation?”, “Did you receive the report in the Investment Review Committee KakaoTalk chatroom?”, and “Did you collude with One Asia Partners?”

He remained silent when he arrived at the courthouse in a police vehicle at around 1:42 PM that day. After getting out of the vehicle, he entered the courthouse in 10 seconds while holding an umbrella held by a security guard.

The results of the warrant review are expected to come out as early as tonight or early in the morning on the 23rd. Chairman Kim will be taken to the Southern Detention Center in a prosecution vehicle and wait until the results of the review are out.

If the court issues an arrest warrant, Chairman Kim will be immediately arrested and investigated for up to 20 days. If the warrant is rejected, he will be released immediately.
