Because digital sex crimes are mediated through cyberspace, the harm often recurs or spreads again. The National Center for Digital Sexual Crime Response (NCDSCR) also provides support for harm caused by redistribution, and you can receive the exact same support as you did for the initial distribution.

You can stay at a shelter through referrals from the Women's Emergency Hotline 1366 and victim support agencies. In addition, you can receive free legal and medical support.

Under Article 14-3 of the Act on Special Cases Concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, anyone who threatens a person using digital sex crime recordings or copies may be sentenced to a term of imprisonment with labor of at least one year. Threats of distribution are highly likely to lead to secondary or tertiary victimization, so immediate action is required. You should seek assistance from related organizations like the National Center for Digital Sexual Crime Response (NCDSCR) or Sexual Violence Counseling Center to file a police report. However, you should avoid meeting the perpetrator directly or letting them know that you have reported them.

Due to the nature of digital sex crimes, the exact time the victimization occurred is often unclear. First, you should check the statute of limitations based on the type of victimization and when it occurred; whether you can specify the location of the incident or the perpetrator can also be important. Even if reporting is impossible because the statute of limitations has expired, you can still receive counseling and deletion support from the National Center for Digital Sexual Crime Response (NCDSCR).

Depending on the content of the recordings, posts, and the nature of the platform, there may be cases where complete deletion support is difficult. Because the nature of digital sexual violence is that content can be redistributed at any time even after being completely deleted, continuous monitoring is necessary.

Reporting the perpetrator is not mandatory. Depending on your circumstances, you can receive counseling and deletion support without filing a report against the perpetrator. However, if a report is filed, assistance can be provided more smoothly across various support processes.

If the perpetrator cannot be identified, it is necessary to secure the minimum amount of information required to deduce who they are (e.g., the time of distribution, the distributor's ID). Even if it is difficult to determine the perpetrator's identity, you can still receive counseling and deletion support from the National Center for Digital Sexual Crime Response (NCDSCR) as long as the evidentiary materials needed for deletion support are collected.

There is no time limit on support. For deletion support, you can generally receive assistance for three years, but this period can be extended afterward.

The National Center for Digital Sexual Crime Response (NCDSCR) allows you to view monthly deletion support result reports for three months after support begins, through which you can check the deletion status. After three months, you can access annual and final result reports on a yearly basis.

Deletion support can begin once the necessary materials are submitted and the application is officially processed. The time it takes for a post or material to be completely removed varies greatly depending on the platform, but we maintain continuous cooperation with various support agencies to ensure prompt deletion.
