The KRW12bn ($10.9m) in cash recovered formed part of the KRW14.56bn ($13.4m) that had been reported missing by Landing International.

The hunt for the women and her accomplices, one said to be a Chinese national of around 30 years of age and another unidentified individual, is ongoing. Authorities also haven’t ruled out other potential accomplices.
