[article] Student Jailed for Blackmailing BoA
 
Quote:

A college student in South Korea has been sentenced to 6 months in prison after he was caught blackmailing BoA and SM Entertainment over BoA's private pictures and email exchange with Danny Ahn, a member of now-disbanded boyband g.o.d.

According to NoCut News, the pictures and emails in question come from BoA's personal webpage, which was hacked by the blackmailer.

He reportedly demanded 35 million Korean won (approximately US$38,000) initially, but even after SM Entertainment paid the asked amount he demanded further 65 million won, at which point SM Entertainment reported the case to the police.

In a press release, SM Entertainment claimed that the blackmailer threatened to spread the pictures around the internet with false stories behind it, which would have gravely damaged BoA's image.

Yikes.. BoA wouldn't be able to afford having her image damaged. But then again, it would damage any artist's image.

I HEARD ABOUT THAT ON BOAJJANG AND DOWNLOADED THE NEWS CLIP TALKING ABOUT IT. xD

Hackers - man, I must admit I slightly admire the way they're able to do that stuff.

Poor BoA!
Is there gonna be a court? or something else?

haha, yeah, I kinda agree with you!

Psychotic_X 4th August 2007 09:21 AM

aiya.. they were better off keeping the whole thing under wraps..
now there's gonna be rumours like crazy about these pictures...
things like "why's BoA hiding these pictures?" "was there something going on about BoA and Danny?"

AyuGAME 4th August 2007 11:20 AM

[taskin.ayu] 4th August 2007 11:21 AM

LOLWOW. XDDDD I wonder what he got and how he got it? O_o

Interesting though, thanks!

the can't be that bad right?
i mean, it's not as if they have pictures of her nakie!

..did they? :S

xiaou-xijiang 4th August 2007 01:15 PM

^ don't ask. don't tell.

he should have stopped at 35 million Korean won. He got greedy and got caught. He was lucky they didn't call the police in the first place. XD

"Private pictures"... makes you wonder, eh? :P
Anyway, it serves him right! For trying to blackmail poor BoA. :(

Imo they should've called in the first place. Blackmailers are known for being greedy and asking for money repeatedly.

xiaou-xijiang 4th August 2007 02:31 PM

^you're right. If they let the boy realize he could get what he wanted the first time, why did they think he would stop?
Its like that child's story:
If You give the Moose a Cookie...
he'll ask for a glass of milk.

chocopockymaster 4th August 2007 03:17 PM

If you give a MOUSE a cookie!

If you give a moose a muffin. :P

If you give a pig a pancake. :D

ohsixthirty 4th August 2007 07:17 PM

hrm...makes me curious about those pictures.

boa put the smackdown on him though it sounds like. :yatta

Haha exactly :)

xiaou-xijiang 4th August 2007 08:01 PM

^:yes
it actually makes them seem even more guilty about photos that appear in the article to be perfectly innocent because they paid for him. So either way her image is under suspicion.

Partino 4th August 2007 08:05 PM

dirty phantasy of mine ... but does anyone remember the Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee incident???

Impracticable 4th August 2007 08:05 PM

Yah. If they call the police the images are going to be known. What morons. :)

I remember hearing about it later. I don't think I was old enough to really care at the time. XD

Mirai Noah 4th August 2007 09:22 PM

Hmm... now I want to know what's in the pictures...

Partino 4th August 2007 09:47 PM

you dirty lil pervs ... :roflmao

namiie 5th August 2007 03:13 AM

Wow, that's scary...imagining having some stranger reading your private letters and stuff, let alone threatening to release it to the public. Eeek.

Partino 5th August 2007 09:39 AM

Who says you that somebody isn't watching you all the time ... maybe everybody has a lil stalker around him/her .... but some are quiet and lovely and some are not ...

Hey now, I didn't say that I wanted to see them, I just want to know what the contents of the photographs contain. ;)

:laugh

TITANIC 6th August 2007 12:12 PM

how poor BoA
I want to know what's in the pictures.

austin. ♥ 6th August 2007 04:00 PM

it can't be as bad as the Pete Wentz incident, right? :lech

Tell us about it, oh wise lord :D

Raleigh 6th August 2007 04:03 PM

Hm maybe she's dating some guy and she had some photos of him. Most of BoA's life seems to be hidden from the public view and it's odd if she hasn't ever dated anyone.

Dustie 8th August 2007 12:15 PM

Private pictures/emails and they were on BoA's homepage? Is that a mistranslation or something? I don't believe she put up a private homepage and then what, uploaded her pictures/emails onto the account through FTP?... And thought she's not jeopardising her privacy/public image at all? That'd be kinda silly of her [or any public person], if that's how it went.

Um, I believe he just took some photos of his genital area with his cell phone's camera and then they got uploaded onto the Internet.

Dustie, you raise a good point!

Diana 8th August 2007 11:55 PM

Awww.... Poor BoA :( And really.. if he blackmailed her.. There must be something really nasty on those pics XD
