Entertainment Attorney

The client had suffered a large loss after being defrauded of game items stolen by a close friend, and wished to file a criminal complaint with the help of the Daeryun entertainment attorney.

One day, a friend who had obtained higher-level items than the client accessed the client's game account, saying they would help the client obtain those items as well.

Seized by greed in that moment, the friend moved many of the items the client held to the friend's own game account and then sold them to other people.

The client, who learned that all of the items worth tens of millions of won that they had held had been stolen, came to Daeryun's entertainment attorney to file a criminal complaint against the friend.
