South Korean actress Lee Lie-yin hunted Thailand's protected animal "Big Clam" when she participated in the variety show "The Law of the Jungle", and may face 5 years in prison. What's going on? Why did Li Lieyin hunt Thailand's protected animals? What the hell was the "big clam" she caught. Now let's follow the editor to understand the origin and end of Li Lieyin or the sentence of 5 years.
It is reported that "The Law of the Jungle" is a South Korean wilderness challenge reality variety show. In April, the program team went to Thailand's Chao Mai Beach National Marine Park for filming. In this show, 23-year-old actress Li Lieyin fished and ate a "big clam" in the show, which caused a lot of netizen controversy. It is reported that this "big clam" is actually a giant hammer, which is an endangered species in Thailand and is protected by Thai law. Thai officials say Mr. Li's actions have been illegal and could face a five-year prison sentence at most.
It is reported that the episode of "The Law of the Jungle" has been broadcast on June 30, in which Li Lieyin found a huge shell creature while diving, she asked the program team what it was, and the other party replied that it was a "big clam" and encouraged her to take it. Li Lieyin was so energetic that he finally dug it up on the coral-covered seabed, and when he returned to the surface, he shouted excitedly: "I got it!" In the end, the program team caught 3 "big clams". At that time, the local guide and coordinator were also present.
The "Law of the Jungle" program issued a statement on the 5th, saying that it was "deeply sorry" for not being familiar with Thailand's wildlife protection law. "We will be more cautious when making shows in the future."
Photos and videos of Li Lieyin's fishing went viral on the Internet, making thai authorities notice the illegal acts of the program team and prosecuting Li Lieyin, who can be sentenced to 5 years in prison under thailand's National Parks Law, or 4 years in prison under the Wildlife Protection Law, in addition to paying a fine of 20,000 tai zhu (about 4,500 yuan).
Although the program team has apologized afterwards, it is reported that the case was listed as a criminal case, so it is impossible to withdraw the charges, and the Thai police will try to find Li Lieyin.
After the fermentation of the incident, many netizens have hugged unevenly, believing that Li Lieyin has become the "back pot man" of the program group. At present, South Korean netizens have launched a petition on the Website of the Blue House, saying that this matter is all caused by the negligence of the "Law of the Jungle" program team, and Li Lieyin himself has no responsibility, hoping that the government will come forward and make the program team responsible for this matter.
