Previously, news that former lawmaker Kim Nam-kook held virtual currencies such as Wemix Coin, Mabrex, and Bora worth as much as 6 billion won ($4.48 million) sparked public suspicion about the source of his investment funds and the use of his money, and he is also suspected of improperly trading on undisclosed information gained from the gaming industry, profiting from the purchase of coins at low prices.
