Gu’s office in Seoul is located in a residential complex called Lucky Apartments. Security is high and visitors cannot freely enter. There were no signs of the Economic Daily at the apartment entrance. These circumstances are significantly different than those of most foreign media in Seoul. According to the source, this apartment complex is the gathering place for Chinese diplomatic personnel and Chinese intelligence officers.
The spacious apartment has three rooms: two contain computer networks and desks, and one for the bedroom. When the “office” was visited on a weekday there was no one working there except a guard who confirmed that Gu does not come to work every day.
On July 16, 2011, a rally was held by the Korean Falun Dafa Association in front of Seoul’s Municipal Government to condemn the CCP’s repression of Falun Gong in China. Without prior permission, Gu started taking pictures of the rally and he demanded to see the schedule of events.
Although he shows up each time Falun Gong practitioners hold events, taking pictures and conducting interviews, people who practice Falun Gong in Korea say they’ve never seen reports published by him about the events. Falun Gong has been persecuted by the Chinese regime since 1999.
Falun Gong practitioners have been a prime target of Chinese spies. After defecting from the Chinese consulate in Sydney, Australia, in 2005, Chen Yonglin revealed the breadth of the CCP’s efforts to spy on dissident groups and provided documents to prove his claims. He told The Epoch Times in June 2007 that the CCP’s goal is to discredit five main groups. These include Tibetan exiles, Taiwanese, Uyghur Muslims, and democracy activists, but Falun Gong is at the top of the list.
According to the coordinator of the Korean Falun Gong Association, Gu often comes to the event venue one hour before the start and takes pictures of Falun Gong practitioners as they prepare for the event.
The Association spokesperson said that the Falun Dafa Association is an officially registered organization in Korea and when Chinese spies interfere with activities of the group, it is a violation of their lawful rights. The spokesperson said that to maintain dignity of law and national sovereignty, the Korean government should deport these spies.
