[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Seul-gi] Composer Don Spike urged the full disclosure of the identities of all parties involved in the 'Nth Room' case, in which women including minors were threatened to create sexually exploitative videos that were sold for money. He stated, "I strongly demand the severe punishment and information disclosure of all Telegram Nth Room participants (including buyers)."

On the 22nd, Don Spike wrote on his Instagram, "Personally, I tend to refrain from expressing political views or social issues," but added this statement.

He said, "Regardless of gender, as a human being, I do not want to live mixed with inhuman trash who do not uphold basic human decency, who assault and threaten others, and who make others' suffering a source of profit without knowing who they are." He raised his voice, saying, "It is also a huge stress to suspect those around me, fearing that someone close to me might be involved."

He continued, "With strong punishment and information disclosure, we must set a powerful example so that such shameless incidents, which treat women and children as sexual playthings, can never be dreamed of again." He added, "These days, when everyone is struggling due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), I was outraged by this disheartening news. Everyone, please stay healthy."

The following is the full text of Don Spike’s Instagram post:

Personally, I tend to refrain from expressing political views or social issues,

but I strongly demand the severe punishment and information disclosure of all Telegram Nth Room participants (including buyers).

Regardless of gender, as a human being,

I do not want to live mixed with inhuman trash who do not uphold basic human decency, who assault and threaten others,

and who make others' suffering a source of profit without knowing who they are.

It is also a huge stress to suspect those around me, fearing that someone close to me might be involved.

With strong punishment and information disclosure, we must set a powerful example so that such shameless incidents, which treat women and children as sexual playthings,

can never be dreamed of again.

These days, when everyone is struggling due to COVID-19, I was outraged by this disheartening news.

Please stay healthy, everyone!
