Police have unlocked Mayor Park Won Soon's iPhone after a critical hint from his victim A.
On the afternoon of the 22nd, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency Task Force in charge of investigating the late Mayor's case revealed that they began digital forensics work including unlocking his 2018 iPhone XS with the help of bereaved family's representative and Seoul Metropolitan Government.
According to police, the unlocking of Park Won Soon's iPhone was resolved easily with a password hint from victim A's lawyer Kim Jae Ryun.

It was initially expected that it would take forensics a long time to unlock the phone due to its strong security and police had plans to use a random password generator but because of the critical hint from victim A, the police were able to unlock the phone quickly.
According to the victim, the reason why she knew the password was because she was his secretary and the phone was used for work.
But Park Won Soon's supporters are casting doubt on the victim's knowledge of his password. Former lawmaker Sohn Hye-won left a short message on her SNS writing, "How did the victim know the iPhone password?"
Supporters replied writing, "Isn't there a possibility of manipulation?" "If she knew the password she could've manipulated the contents?" She could've sent that Telegram invitation using the two phones alone." "This is a password that even his family didn't know."
- [+4,194, -308] Is it because Park Won Soon taught you that? Why leave a comment like that to a victim?
- [+2,934, -185] Leftists are so disgusting...have you no remorse?
- [+2,069, -94] He killed himself because he felt guilty. Do you think he did it out of boredom? If you're human please think twice before talking!
- [+804, -21] There's no need to fight it out between parties right now...let's just get to the phone already. Let's get to the truth, I want to know the truth.
- [+620, -157] I respected Park Won Soon a bit but this is too huge of a black mark
- [+390, -16] That woman Son Hye Won is hopeless. Does she really think she'd do that? The main issue here is the fact there are forces preventing police from searching Park Won Soon's personal cell phone, not his work phone.
- [+194, -15] If he was such a frugal person he wouldn't have been 700 million in debt and using the latest iPhone model. You can spend years studying in England with that much debt.
- [+74, -5] Isn't it natural that his secretary would know something like that?ã…‹ã…‹
- [+70, -6] She knew because she's his secretary...is this a comedy?
- [+58, -5] Are they trying to drive the victim off a cliff?ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ This is why left wingers are disgusting.
