The manipulative scheme involved Hee approaching victims online and enticing them to become his “sugar babies” under the false pretense of payment for intimate content, only to renege on his promises.
Hee’s Deceptive Methods and Victims
Hee, now 32, is facing a staggering total of 59 charges for his despicable actions.

The victims involved in these offenses were young individuals aged between 13 and 20 years old.
Heartbreaking Stories of Victimization
One devastating case involves a 15-year-old girl, identified as V1, who fell prey to Hee’s manipulative tactics. After expressing interest in becoming a sugar baby in exchange for payment, V1 was coerced into sending explicit photos and videos to Hee. Subsequently, she was sexually assaulted by him, leading to traumatic experiences and emotional distress. Similarly, another victim, a 13-year-old girl identified as V7, was intimidated by Hee’s threats to distribute her intimate images if she did not comply with his demands, leaving her frightened and vulnerable.
Impact and Consequences of Hee’s Actions
