The spread of malicious rumors that slandered actor Song Hye-kyo was handed over to prosecutors for prosecution.

Earlier, Song Hye-kyo sued the flammers in July, specifying 15 Internet IDs that circulated rumors and posted malicious comments and submitting them to Police.
Two of them were identified. The remaining 13 IDs have already been withdrawn from the site and have not been traced.
Mr. A is accused of defaming Song Hye-kyo, who in June published a false statement on his blog. "China's big sponsor is the decisive reason for divorce," he wrote.
Mr. B is accused of insulting Song Hye-kyo, who commented on Song Hye-kyo's articles such as "The Ghosts Eating Men" and "The Beautiful Is Like XXX".
