1. The Client Who Sought a Yongsan Sexual Offense Attorney

The client who came to the Yongsan sex crime attorney stated that he was suspected of threat using filmed material (sextortion).

The client requested that his criminal penalty be defended against, and in order to fulfill the client's request, the Yongsan sex crime attorney set out to understand the case.

The client told a woman whom he had come to know through a random chat application that he ran a large swimwear business and that he would pay her a certain amount of money if she worked as a model.

When the woman asked what she should do, the Yongsan sex crime attorney's client told her to send nude photographs without underwear so that her body shape could be easily assessed.

The woman, without any suspicion, sent the client several photographs.

As soon as the Yongsan sex crime attorney's client received the photographs, he threatened the woman by stating that he would distribute the photographs if she did not do as he said, using filmed material capable of provoking the woman's sexual humiliation.

2. Threat Using Filmed Material Explained by a Yongsan Sexual Offense Attorney

The charge faced by the Yongsan sex crime attorney's client, threat using filmed material (sextortion), is punishable under the Act on Special Cases concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes.

Act on Special Cases concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, Article 14-3 (Threat or Coercion Using Filmed Material, etc.)

① A person who threatens another by using filmed material or a reproduction thereof (including a reproduction of a reproduction) capable of provoking sexual desire or humiliation shall be punished by imprisonment for a definite term of not less than one year.

② A person who, by means of the threat under paragraph 1, interferes with another's exercise of rights or causes another to perform an act that is not obligatory shall be punished by imprisonment for a definite term of not less than three years.

③ Where the crimes under paragraphs 1 and 2 are committed habitually, the penalty prescribed for such crimes shall be increased by up to one half.

Because threat using filmed material (sextortion) is regarded as a serious offense, it is punishable by imprisonment for a definite term of not less than one year, with no fine available.
