1st generation girl group S.E.S member Shoo (37) has been indicted of illegal overseas gambling charges by the Seoul's District Police Office on December 28. 

Back in June of this year, Shoo was charged by two plaintiffs for committing fraud in the form of borrowing 600,000,000 KRW (500,000 USD) at a hotel casino in Seoul. It was alleged that a portion of this borrowed amount was used in illegal, compulsive gambling, causing controversy. 

According to the district court, Shoo has been cleared of her fraud and illegal, domestic gambling accusation. However, she was found guilty of illegal gambling in foreign countries, and her case will be forwarded for court trial.

Once again, SK surprises with its heavy-handed overreach - who decides what its citizens can and cannot do while they're not IN country? That's unjust, makes no real sense and needs to be changed. smh........ >___ <>

It surprises me that they can receive punishment for things that are completely legal and allowed in other countries where they played. This is quite strange. Now there are many places and platforms to just play, and if you do it consciously, choose a project on the website, then what's wrong with that?
