Korean police transfer the case of famous stock manipulator Lee Hee-jin involved in crypto fraud to the financial crime division
Dubbed the “God of the Stock Market in Jiangnan,” Lee Hee-jin (Nickname: “джин”) has recently become the focus again due to a virtual asset fraud case. The Seoul Police Department has officially transferred his case to the Financial Crime Investigation Unit, charging him with violating the “Act on the Punishment of Economic Crimes.”
Case Focus: PikaCoin Fund Dispute
The investigation was triggered by a dispute over funds with the PikaCoin project team. According to the charges, Lee Hee-jin owes approximately 18.8 billion KRW in unpaid debts. This is not an isolated incident—back in October 2023, he was arrested for allegedly manipulating three tokens, including PikaCoin, and organizing a scam scheme worth up to 900 billion KRW.
A Serial Offender as a “Virtual Asset Hunter”
Lee Hee-jin’s criminal record does not begin with the crypto sector. He was previously sentenced to three years and six months for illegal stock trading in 2020. This background makes his current allegations involving virtual assets more credible—those familiar with market manipulation techniques often turn to the crypto space, where asymmetric information and market immaturity can be exploited for larger-scale fraud.
Current Progress and Future Outlook
As of March 2025, Lee Hee-jin has been released on bail but remains under investigation and has not been detained. This means the case is still under investigation, and the final punishment has yet to be determined. With the involvement of the Financial Crime Investigation Unit, this case may face stricter judicial scrutiny.
