I’ve got a crazy Korean stalker

So I’ve had this guy who I didn’t even know go absolutely mental one day and he has had it in for me ever since.  I believe it was me originally who sent a friend invite (yeah, I was an idiot) and he accepted.  Things were all right for a while, but then I noticed he was starting to be a little creepy.  He knew I used to be a member of the church but I think he still thought I was a member (which I’m not) so he would always call me elder and crap (even after I told him I’m not a member).  He was copying every single image of me and my friends and putting them on his minihome.  Then he started commenting and swearing and crap in the comments so I frantically found out how to kick him permanently off of commenting on my cyworld minihome.  Here’s an example of some of the crap he wrote:

THEN I had to figure out how to kick him from seeing anything from my minihome since he still copied my images.  THEN he came back as a non-logged in user and I had to figure out how to block THEM from leaving comments.  At this point he went totally completely psycho from not being able to do things on my minihome so he started commenting on all my stuff as an anonymous user.  I didn’t know how to block them so I was quickly deleting his posts one by one.  At the same time I was trying to figure out how to block them.  Once I figured it out I was extremely relieved.  I guess it was a good exercise in learning how personal security settings worked …  Seriously this, guy was creepy beyond belief.  He would put my pictures on his wall, comment on them, comment on his own comments, edit his comments completely changing them constantly, and say bad things about me and my friends (who he knows none).  He even went on my friends minihome and made bad comments about them (they asked me who this random guy was who said this crap).

Anyways, he has also been commenting about me on a forum I frequent.  He said crap like I’m a mormon missionary (which I’m obviously not), that I am a suspect of taking drugs (seriously, WTF?P), and some other crap.  He changes what he writes after I leave a comment so I just decided to leave a comment that mentioned that and that I didn’t want to speak to him again.  Here’s a screenshot of random crap him and some girl he knows said after I did a introduction post:

WTF is up with the random posts about missionary work?  In the bottom one he accuses me of being a drug user.  Ef you.

If you’re reading this, I have nothing against you other than the fact that you say random crap about me.  I don’t even freaking know you.  Go find a girlfriend or a real friend to hang out with instead of doing this crap.

  1. 1. you can contact police for his defamation of character(명예훼손) or insult.
    just screen-capture and save those crap.
    and then, police would take a good care of him.

    2. vice versa, even if he is really crazy, publishing his real name, minihome, pictures in your blog is not legally right in korea. also could be defamation of character or insult.

    mormon missionary.. haha. :) ..

  2. In the meantime, when you’re posting photos, there’s a setting that allows you to prevent others from copying your pictures: uncheck ‘스크랩’. Good luck. What a creep.

  3. Wow totaly scary. But looks like he is a sexy boy ahah. Good luck.

    In a way, it means you’re famous :D

  4. wow bizarre! lol

  5. Andrew, Unchecking ‘스크랩’ does not solve the problem since you can just capture the screen although I doubt this guy knows how. But Matt set it so that others cannot see his images anyway.

  6. You’d better just ignore what he says.
    No one’s gonna believe him.
    So juvenile.

  7. Does he know this blog? Then I suggest you drop his image. I think ‘Gusts of Popular Feeling’ covered this issue of how censorship laws are different in Korea. Defamation law is not totally based on truth, but it is based on how damaging it is to one’s image. That’s why even news media censors child molester or rapist’s image.

    Psycho like this might do anything. I don’t actually think you would get in much trouble for this. But foreigners are always targets of attack, so just be careful.

  8. You should make a tutorial for how to make these types of privacy changes.

  9. 박성현, I know about the possibility of screen capture still being available to the Stalker… I just didn’t want to mention it in case the Stalker didn’t know about that option. I didn’t want to let him know how to get around it! I’m sure that if he’s reading Matt’s Cyworld page, he’s found this blog, too.
