I'm surprised it took them this long to arrest her tbh. The Korean exchange students community I'm familiar with here in CPH were very aware and upset that both her and her mother were using Denmark as a hide-out.

I wonder what's gonna happen now..

wow i had no idea about that bit of infor. how long have they been using Denmark as a hideout? Did anyone tried to track her down prior to this arrest? So curious about her part in the whole saga

From what I've gathered, they believe her mother must have a contact here with property. And both of them were hiding here since the beginning, up until her mother flew back to Korea. Although people were under the impression that they were in Germany, I think the mom country-hopped a little before flying back to confuse people of her daughter's whereabouts. I don't think Danish police were planning on doing anything until interpol intervened tbh..

Woah i had no idea about all that. Thanks for the infor! Yeah i doubt the police cld really do anything without interpol.

"All I did was sign certain documents, whose contents were covered up by Post-its,” lol what??

I had no idea she even had a kid, it's sad that they'll be separated but I don't quite believe that she was completely unaware of what her mother was doing or that her admission to Ewha and sponsorship from Samsung was a complete mystery to her. If the public can see corruption and bribery, she of all people should be privy to it even if she claims she had no contact with her mum. Nobody simply just gets admissions and credits and sponsorships.

Well, it's not surprising she wouldn't admit to anything that could land her in jail until she get some kind of deal with prosecution. And she seemingly had some falling out with her mother over out of wedlock child so she probalby has no problem throwing her under the bus.

There's a different article that references a fb post she made in 2014 saying that people should be complaining about their parents being incompetent rather than worrying about what she does, and that money is competence

basically she's lying

[modestgoddess79]

Once again people telling all they business on Facebook

[pastelpinklace]

Send her ass to prison, she knew what was going on

[donutism]

I dont believe for a second that she doesn't have any idea what is going on. Even if she didn't know everything, she must have an idea about the Samsung sponsership and the uni admissions.

[callherblondie]

I don't buy it either. She'd have to legit be dumber than a box of turds to not think signing something covered in post-it notes wasn't shady af.

I didn't know that filming inside a courtroom is illegal in denmark; journalists in my country do it all the time. Is there any danish reading this? I'm curious why is this illegal, like, was there a certain case that triggered this law or has it always been that way?

[yejun]

I don't know about Denmark but in Sweden it's an old law dating back to when cameras were not as great. The law here was created in 1948 and was made because the flashes on old cameras were considered loud and thus a disturbance to the court room (as well as a potential fire hazard). While cameras have improved since then no one has done anything to change the law, probably mainly because it's feared that cameras will make witnesses less comfortable to speak in court rooms.

[anonymous_loljk]

Hm, i've never thought about that before, but it makes sense that cameras are making witnesses uncomfortable.

[justkyhdding]

it could probably be a case of not getting permission beforehand, or you can film in court but not conduct interviews?

idk in australia they dont typically film in court so i thought it was a similar case in denmark, though there are countries that allow cameras
