According to one exclusive media outlet, a male idol-turned-actor who is currently in his thirties turned himself in, confessing to crimes of voice phishing scams. The suspected individual visited Yeoju Police Station in Gyeonggi Province back on June 16 KST and confessed, "I received a total of 6 million won from the victim of my voice phishing scam."
After suffering from financial difficulties, the suspected individual revealed that he noticed a high paying job position while scrolling through the internet. He began working there but soon realized that it was a voice phishing job, to which he immediately looked for the police to confess. Since receiving the individual's confession, the police have arrested three more affiliated accomplices.
Meanwhile, this news is reportedly scheduled to be announced through the MBC News 7 channel.
Netizens commented:

He’s a good person, he got tricked himself by the real criminals yet he choose to do the right things although he knew that he might be punished for it. I sincerely hope he won’t be criminalised as he is also a victim. All the best for this honest guy…
