The president made these remarks while sharing an article about the police's investigation into the dissemination of false claims regarding a supposed government mandate to sell dollars.
"Spreading false information that harms the public is not a matter of free speech, nor is it something to be tolerated," President Lee said. He added, "Even if it is done as a joke or for fun, actions that kill people and destroy the order and values of the community must be treated as serious crimes and punished accordingly."
He also expressed his appreciation for the diligent police investigation team, saying, "I should send them some pizza."
