A few insiders from the entertainment industry as well as from the prosecution revealed bits of info, mentioning that many of the 8 are well known names. They are said to include entertainers from all areas including singers, with some even being idols, while others are comedians, and one is even an MC of a show.
It's said the names were discovered while investigating the bank accounts of brokers who connect people with the illegal gambling sites.
An insider commented, "There are thousands of illegal gambling sites being operated and if all the celebrities who are suspected of having gambled through these sites are investigated, there is a big possibility that it may grow to include practically half of the entertainment industry."
"The prosecution is currently confirming the deposits and withdrawals of the suspected celebrities' bank accounts... Once they get an overall picture, it's expected that they'll soon start summoning them for questioning," another source added.
