Lee Sun Kyun death: 2 government officials and journalist indicted for leaking confidential case details, know more
Trigger Warning: This article contains mentions of dr*g use and sensitive circumstances surrounding a public figure's demise. Reader discretion is advised! In a major development tied to the late actor Lee Sun Kyun's controversial dr*g investigation, two government officials have been indicted. A journalist has also been charged for illegally disclosing sensitive information to the press. On June 5, the Incheon District Prosecutor's Office revealed that formal charges had been filed against a police officer and a prosecutorial investigator for breaching official secrecy. A journalist was also indicted for violating personal data protection laws. This indictment follows a months-long investigation into how details from a confidential criminal probe made their way into the public sphere. Many believe it contributed to the severe public scrutiny faced by Lee Sun Kyun prior to his tragic death in December 2023. Leaked files and conversations triggered sensationalism According to prosecution authorities, the first breach occurred on October 18, 2023. A police officer in his 30s, referred to only as 'A,' captured photographs of official investigation records. These documents reportedly contained detailed information on individuals linked to the dr*g case. It included names, prior criminal offenses, and occupations. The images were allegedly distributed to two reporters, despite containing information that had not yet been verified or cleared for release. The following day, a separate leak allegedly occurred. A prosecutorial investigator in his 40s, identified as 'B,' is said to have informed a different journalist that Lee Sun Kyun was under formal investigation. This verbal disclosure, made while the case was still at a confidential stage. It reportedly served as the tipping point for a flood of media coverage that framed the actor's situation in a highly sensationalized manner. The journalist who received and published this information, named 'C' in the report, has now been indicted under South Korea's Personal Information Protection Act. This law prohibits the release of private or unverified details obtained through unauthorized means. Timeline: From private probe to public pressure Lee Sun Kyun, internationally known for his performance in Parasite, had quietly been under police investigation since October 14, 2023. He voluntarily attended three rounds of questioning related to alleged dr*g use. However, before authorities had even concluded their findings or presented evidence publicly, his name and alleged charges began appearing in headlines across the country. The release of unconfirmed information and speculative coverage across social platforms only amplified the pressure on the actor. On December 26, 2023, Lee was found deceased in his car. His sudden death prompted a wave of grief and anger throughout the entertainment industry and the general public.

South Korea's liberal-led legislature passes bills calling for special probes into Yoon and wife
South Korea's liberal-led legislature on Thursday (June 5, 2025) passed bills to launch special investigations into former President Yoon Suk-yeol's short-lived imposition of martial law in December and criminal allegations against his wife, targeting the ousted conservative a day after his liberal successor took office. The bills previously were vetoed by Mr. Yoon and South Korea's caretaker government after his December 14 impeachment over the martial law debacle. They are expected to be signed by new President Lee Jae-myung, a Democrat who won (June 3, 2025) Tuesday's snap election triggered by Mr. Yoon's formal removal from office in April. Many members of the conservative People Power Party refused to participate in the votes, which took place after one of the party's lawmakers accused the liberals in a speech of being driven by vendetta. Mr. Lee, who as an Opposition leader drove the legislative efforts to impeach and oust Mr. Yoon, pinned his presidential campaign on unity, promising not to target conservatives and calling for an end to political polarisation. Yet Mr. Lee has vowed a full investigation into Mr. Yoon's martial law stunt and the allegations surrounding his wife, moves that could overshadow the new government and inflame tensions as Mr. Yoon faces a high-stakes rebellion trial carrying a possible death sentence. The Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office indicted Mr. Yoon in January over his December 3 martial law decree, charging him with masterminding a rebellion and describing his power grab as an illegal bid to seize the legislature and election offices and arrest political opponents. Liberals have insisted that independent investigations into Mr. Yoon are essential, saying probes by prosecutors, police, and an anti-corruption agency were inadequate and hampered by Mr. Yoon's refusal to cooperate. If Mr. Lee approves the launch of independent investigations, special prosecutors could request the transfer of relevant cases for expanded probes, or direct public or military prosecutors to continue handling them under their supervision. The bills calling for independent investigations into Mr. Yoon's martial law decree and criminal allegations involving his wife both passed by a vote of 194 to 3. Dozens of retired marines, dressed in red shirts, saluted and cheered from an observation box after lawmakers passed the bill for a special prosecutor investigation into the marine's death, which also passed 194 to 3. Mr. Yoon's martial law decree lasted only a few hours after a quorum of lawmakers pushed past a blockade of hundreds of heavily armed soldiers and voted to revoke the measure. Mr. Yoon defended the move as a necessary act of governance, accusing the Democrats, whom he labeled 'anti-state forces,' of abusing their majority to obstruct his agenda and paralyse state affairs. That same majority now gives Mr. Lee a far more favorable path to advance his agenda, though conservatives claim it could grant him virtually unchecked power and allow him to pass laws that shield him from legal trouble. Mr. Yoon's wife, Kim Keon-hee, also faces multiple corruption allegations, including claims that she received luxury items from a Unification Church official seeking business favors, as well as possible involvement in a stock price manipulation scheme. She also is suspected of interfering with PPP's candidate nominations ahead of legislative elections in April last year. While in office, Mr. Yoon repeatedly dismissed calls to investigate his wife, denouncing them as baseless political attacks.
