PD Lee Young-don has launched civil and criminal charges against malicious comments and public sniper remarks related to the death of the late Kim Young-ae.

On the 25th, PD Lee posted a video on his YouTube channel ‘Lee Young-don TV’ saying ‘Lee Young-don PD, start a legal battle’ and said that legal action is inevitable to restore his honor.

In this video, PD Lee said, “I’ve been patient and patient. I just kept thinking that it would be okay as the years passed.

What used to criticize me for killing the self-employed with outrageous falsehoods is now being brought up by politicians to commit personality murders against me. For the sake of my honor, I will not endure it any longer.”

On the 20th, he announced that he would file a criminal complaint against Yun Ho-jung, chairman of the Democratic Party’s joint emergency countermeasures committee, and Won Hee-ryong, a candidate for Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, for defamation by spreading false information.

PD Lee said, “Former Minjoo Party floor leader Yun Ho-jung referred to me as a synonym for fake news.” “The late Kim Young-ae also misled that he died because of me. ” he pointed out.

In September of last year, PD Lee was recruited to Hong Joon-pyo’s People’s Strength Presidential Candidate Camp as the head of media headquarters, but the recruitment was ultimately canceled in the face of criticism. At that time, Democratic Party floor leader Yun Ho-jung said, “The late actress Kim Young-ae, who was running a yellow clay pack company, complained of extreme pain after the broadcast of a heavy metal yellow clay pack by this PD, a symbol of fake news, and eventually died of pancreatic cancer in 207.” He publicly shot this PD. have done

PD Lee said, “I want to ask if you’ve ever properly watched any of the programs I made. Please tell me exactly how a famous celebrity died because of the program I made.” He asked, “After the episode of ‘Food X File’, Castella the Great, which aired two and a half years after Channel A’s retirement, the PD said, “Even though the broadcast has nothing to do with me. The false rumors that they killed the self-employed were circulated. During the presidential primary of last year, the politicians fixed these false facts as if they were the truth to the general public as the self-employed and the killer of small business owners,” he pointed out.

Regarding Won Hee-ryong, the then-People’s Power presidential nominee, PD Lee said, “I seriously damaged my honor by using the insulting word “self-employed killer” to have a debate that was watched by the entire nation. We will proceed with civil and criminal prosecutions for insults and insults.”

In particular, he expressed strong injustice in relation to the controversy over the yellow soil pack related to the late Kim Young-ae. He said, “In the broadcast titled ‘Shock! Heavy metal detection in loess pack’, we conducted heavy metal testing twice on all products sold on the market and broadcast the results.” I filed civil and criminal lawsuits against the lead producer, me and the production team, but they all went to the Supreme Court and were acquitted.”

In 2007, PD Lee, who conducted the KBS current affairs accusation program, ‘PD Lee Young-don’s Consumer Complaint’, reported that iron powder was detected in the yellow clay pack that Kim Young-ae was running, and filed a lawsuit for about five years. The report eventually turned out to be false, but the Supreme Court acquitted PD Lee on the grounds that the report was for the public interest. Then, in 2017, her late Kim Young-ae passed away from pancreatic cancer, and the case in which the deceased suffered during her lifetime was re-examined.

Two years later, during a press conference, PD Lee said, “I thought I should apologize someday, but it was delayed. I know it’s late, but I want to apologize to Kim Young-ae. I hope you rest in peace in heaven.

It is a burden to carry for the rest of your life. Kim Young-ae appears once in her dreams,” she apologized by bowing her head.

The PD said that he would also sue a netizen who left malicious comments against him for defamation and insult.

He said, “I hope that this lawsuit will correct misunderstandings about the person and improve the Internet culture of spreading false information by riding on one-sided public opinion and personal interests.”
