On November 13, it was revealed that the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office prosecuted two netizens, including a Mr. Kim, without detention on the charge of damaging the honor of Davichi's Kang Min Kyung by uploading a composite photo.

According to the prosecutors, they had uploaded a composite picture of Kang Min Kyung entertaining a man at a bar onto the internet back in March under the title "Kang Min Kyung's Sponsor Picture."  They even raised the credibility by adding a conversation in which a person impersonating a rep from Kang Min Kyung's agency wrote, "We have to block this quickly."  However, it was later proved that everything was entirely false with the photo being photoshopped.


A rep from the prosecution office said, "As defamation cyber crimes against public figures are getting more severe, we will demand a formal trial out of our desire to enact strong punishment."
