Why Joo Jin Mo thought it better to bring his phone hacking to public attention instead of paying ransom is beyond me, he brings his friends down and exposed himself as molka criminal.

    Paying ransom & blackmail never stops.

      That’s true but those actors have much more to lose, and reading what was released to the public it’s surprising he was okay with that being public, or maybe he forgot what was in that cloud and how it’ll affect his actors friends.

        But that’s now how it works, people forget… The main point will be if he will be prosecuted for anything or not, if not everyone forgets, if he gets you can still get acquitted, again people forget, if you get prosecuted and get a sentence it will be not much unless you are prosecuted for rape which is what your lawyer is going to get you out of. End … People forget… You make a comeback… That’s the recipe… In long term this is cheaper and you gain some sympathy because you were wrongly accused.. but you still apologize lol! Or you set up your production company…

    Maybe he did not enough money to pay and he should now save it to pay for alimony!

      There are allegedly photo of sleeping women on his phone taken seemingly without consent. I hope they catch the scumbag hacker because he spread that photos too.

    I’ve never been a fan of his, but something seems odd. The articles say that some of chats are from 2013. That is impossible on Katalk unless he didn’t change his phone since 2013, which seems… rather unbelievable?

      The hacker accessed cloud, maybe he stored it there?

        I haven’t used Katalk for a few months, and I know NOTHING about IT, but until last year they had a strict policy of absolutely nothing being saved outside of your current phone. Everything on any server or cloud would be deleted after 3 days. They aimed their app at the Hallyu and kpop stars since the beginning and they made a point of it being super secure against hackers.
        With what I know of Katalk as of last year, the only ways they could access chats from so long ago is if the person used the desktop version as people don’t change their computers as often as their phones, OR, the person had actually saved backups of the chats somewhere which must be done manually, and for these specific chats sounds even more odd! Was he planning to blackmail his own friend??? Now my imagination is running wild! :))

          His agency issued statements on suing people who will spread the content of his phone and never denying it wasn’t true. So who knows.

    There are many names mentioned but I came across this post that says there hasn’t been proper translation and the likes of HB and JWS are mentioned in some other context.

    Otoh I don’t know what to watch and who to trust. Honestly, it has never really been a secret that celebrities aren’t that chaste. One of the reasons why I have never really fangirled over Hollywood celebs but they also don’t pretend to be pious. That’s the issue with k celebs, they are shown as the best ever. The best husbands, your ideal boyfriends, the perfect son. Even with women, they’ll be the most gorgeous, kind and generous – not that they cannot be but all this is sensationalized and people think they are actually very righteous and otherworldly. I am pissed that I fell down this hole too. I can no longer watch shows with people who have been trash bags in real life, I can’t support their art or work. But who is right then? How do we know? We have no idea how deep this is and how many more people are disrespectful to women but all I know is that they need to be called out. Everybody, not only the celebs but everyone who thinks it’s fine to disrespect a woman. We have had enough.

      I read the translation there too, and one other account, from what I understand they are all in the same golf club and those translated screen shots imply only JJM, JDG, JWS and SSG, rest like HB is only mentioned in more mundane context, like meeting for a golfing together.
