Supporters' Enthusiastic Reactions
Cho Min, the daughter of former Minister Cho Kuk, announced the resumption of her YouTube channel activities. It has been only a week since she said on the 29th of last month that she would suspend her YouTube activities to mourn the Itaewon tragedy.
On the 4th, Cho posted on her social media (SNS), "See you again, Tteokbokki yum yum! Starting tomorrow, YouTube uploads will return to normal," along with daily life photos. The photos included a doll resembling Woody, the main character from the movie 'Toy Story,' pictures of food, and shots focusing on Cho’s back and her front view concentrating on cookies.
Comments expressing joy over the resumption of her YouTube activities poured in. They included messages like "Been waiting so much, welcome back" and "Always supporting you, Min teacher."
Reactions to the daily photos Cho posted were also enthusiastic. Comments praised her appearance, such as "How do you maintain your figure while eating like this?" and "Is that cookie bigger than Min’s face?"
Also Released Paintings for Mourning
Earlier, on the 2nd, Cho shared two paintings on her SNS. One depicted a dark night sky with white flowers, and the other showed six pairs of different shoes.
One netizen interpreted these as paintings to mourn the victims of the Itaewon tragedy. The comment, "The flowers of mourning and those who became stars, the ownerless shoes," received the most 'likes' among the comments on the post.
Responses continued with remarks such as "Has artistic sensibility," "A jack of all trades," "Too talented to be a doctor, such a waste," and "Genius."
Trial Date Set for Admission Fraud Case
Meanwhile, the first trial date for Cho, who is charged with 'admission fraud,' has been set for December 8. Cho is accused of conspiring with her father, former Minister Cho Kuk, around June 2013 to submit falsified or forged supporting documents to Seoul National University Medical School, including a falsely written personal statement, an internship certificate in the name of the head of the Public Interest and Human Rights Law Center at Seoul National University Law School, and a commendation certificate from Dongyang University’s president.
In addition, she is also accused of submitting a falsified admission application, personal statement, and a forged commendation certificate from Dongyang University’s president to Busan National University Medical School around June 2014, together with her mother, former Dongyang University professor Jung Kyung-shim, and gaining admission through these fraudulent documents.
