On August 19, South Korean police revealed that they recently discovered a Telegram chat room circulating digital sex crime materials that was operating from Inha University. The chat has been active since 2020, with over 1,200 participants who shared nude pictures of women created through deepfake and AI. Most of these pictures featured faces of current female students of graduates of the university superimposed on the bodies of other women.
Apart from these explicit photos, the chat room also circulated the personal information of the victims, including contact information and student ID numbers. Reports have also stated that the participants also shared audio files of the victims saying sexually provocative phrases, which were also created using AI. So far, more than 30 victims have been identified.

The chat room was exposed when a graduate of Inha University, who was also a victim, learned about its existence last year. She faced extreme harassment with messages asking if it was really her in those photos. At the end of 2023, she filed a complaint with the Incheon Michuhol Polie Station and in February, the university also requested an investigation from the Incheon Police Agency. Currently, the case is being handled by their Cyber Crime Investigation Unit.
