Cho Joo Bin approached these young girls through social media, and together with his accomplices, they offered them money or gift certificates in exchange for their nude photos. These girls agreed somehow because their identity would not be revealed. They did not know, however, that a friend of the main perpetrator, who worked for a government sector, had access to identify the names and personal information of the victims.
The teens would then be blackmailed and threatened, leaving them no choice but to film pornographic video, including men sexually abusing them, and the videos will be sold to users.
