(2)All right, however, the independent counsel indicted only 11 people, saying, “Mr. Choi Koo-sik’s secretary, artificial dog, and Mr. Kim, former National Assembly Speaker Park Hee-tae, conspired to order a DDoS attack on Kang, the head of an information technology IT company, and Mr. Kang executed it.” About 100 investigators spent 2 billion won in 90 days on the investigation team, but concluded that there was no upper hand. They said that Gong and Kim ordered a DDoS attack at a drinking party the day before the election in an impromptu mood to set up a public 功, and Kang carried out the DDoS attack out of the expectation that it could help Gong and Kim in politics pursue legalization of online gambling.” In this regard, the prosecution also said that it is the realm of God to reveal who is behind it.”
More than five years after the NEC’s DDoS incident, the Sisa Journal has tracked down the true nature of the case by contacting the alleged main culprits as well as officials from various angles In the process, I was able to meet key officials involved in the NEC’s DDoS attack The following is an excerpt of the key parts of the interview More information is available in Sisa Journal No. 1422 which will be released on January 14, 2017
On October 26, 2011, during the by-election for the mayor of Seoul, the website of the National Election Commission was attacked by DDoS Special prosecutors’ investigations, including the prosecution and the police, were continued, but various suspicions were not revealed
“I thought it was not long after, but it’s already been five years.” “Those who were imprisoned and gave direct orders to only a few people who were involved in the NEC DDoS case at the time, I felt that they were strong when they saw them still working in politics
How did you get involved in the NEC DDoS case
“In 2011, I worked to sell security equipment to company A, a network company. I told this company when and where I would hack, and I hacked this place myself to prove that the security was poor and sold our equipment.” Knowing that I was working on hacking, my friend’s father, Congressman B, suggested a DDoS attack, saying, “Can you make the server explode?” I refused because I didn’t want to intervene in political affairs.”
Was there any other suggestion
“There was”
Who was it
“Chairman Park Hee-tae was the speaker of the National Assembly at the time”
How did you meet Park
“I met with Chairman Park Hee-tae due to the introduction of Senior C. In the case of the elder Park and Chairman Park, we greeted each other at a drinking party, and we met more often due to the Order DDoS attack.” Chairman Park knew that even if he didn’t contact me directly, most of the orders were from the chairman’s line, so he came
Mr. C lived in Somang Church at the time, and he was introduced to the bar where he used to go, and thanks to that, he was introduced to many politicians “I was introduced at my home in Samseong-dong and at the fitness center of Hotel D. Hotel D was a hot place where executives of political and large companies exchanged orders. “As an elder C gave me the right to win orders from Company E, I naturally greeted the members of the Grand National Party at the time of the Saenuri Party.”
Regarding C, who was introduced to him, former chairman Park Hee-tae said, “I haven’t even heard his name. I’ve never met him before,” but added, “It’s been a long time, so I can’t be sure of 100.”
When did the proposal come in
“The first proposal was made in the summer of 2011”
Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon resigned on August 26, 2011, when the referendum on free school meals was held in Seoul Was the NEC DDoS attack proposed after the Seoul mayoral by-election was decided
“No, it’s before August 24th”
If so, were they offered to attack the NEC DDoS even before the by-election for Seoul mayor was decided
“Yes, because the original target was not the Seoul mayor by-election, but the following year, April 2012.”
