I feel frustrated and angry regarding accounting fraud. I would like to file a lawsuit regarding accounting fraud.

I am a shareholder of a certain company listed on the KOSDAQ and a loyal shareholder who has watched the company's growth for a long time.... I suddenly received a notice of business closure from the company's representative. A simple closure alone would not matter, but because of the closure the stock price hit rock bottom and my seed money became worthless... Then I came to learn that the representative director had committed embezzlement, so I need to obtain evidence and, with that evidence, I would like to proceed with an accounting fraud lawsuit.
