Cho Ju-bin, infamously known as Baksa, is one of the main culprits behind the dreadful and quite heart-wrenching Nth Room case, which inspired the Netflix documentary movie Cyber Hell: Exposing an Internet Horror, involving an online sexual abuse ring.

Allegedly, Cho used the online alias Baksa to blackmail women into sending sexually explicit pictures and videos. This list of women also included minors. He used to reportedly post sexually explicit and degrading videos and photos in chatrooms on Telegram.

Cho allegedly created a chatroom titled Doctor's Room where reportedly, group members used to pay nearly $1200 to see the sexually explicit content. According to reports, Baksa received almost 18 million won for being one of the main parts of the exploitation and blackmailing ring.

Reportedly, 74 women were blackmailed by Cho, and 16 were teenagers. Cho has allegedly exploited 17 of them.


Where is Baksa now?

According to reports, Cho Ju-bin or Baksa was arrested on March 16, 2020. He reportedly received 42 years of prison time in October 2021 for his unthinkable crimes.

He also received an order from the Supreme Court to wear an eclectic ankle tag thirty years after his release from prison and pay a 100 million won, which is a $90,000 forfeiture. He has reportedly been banned from working at child-related organizations or facilities.

Cho Ju-bin, or Baksa, is currently imprisoned at the Seoul Detention Center in Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, serving his time in prison.
