[All] Where is Siheung Jeja Vision Church? Unanswered Questions, GrAl, Suicide of a believer in their 20s, Celebrity
The recent death of a woman in her 20s in Siheung, Gyeonggi Province
It is causing great shock as it spreads beyond a simple personal tragedy to become a problem of the internal structure of the religion.
In particular, following the broadcast of SBS's *Unanswered Questions*, keywords such as 'J Church', 'Dabak', and 'gaslighting' spread rapidly.
It has emerged as a social issue.
In this article, I will summarize the key points, from the flow of events and the person identified as the perpetrator to the doctrinal controversy and the current situation.
1. Incident Start: Woman in her 20s dies by jumping
In February 2026, an incident occurred in which a female believer in her 20s died by jumping from an apartment in Siheung, Gyeonggi Province.
Initially, it was known as a personal romantic problem or psychological factor, but
Afterwards, the direction of the case completely changed as the bereaved family checked the deceased's mobile phone.
The mobile phone messages contained indications of an inappropriate relationship with a specific person,
As this information was revealed, suspicions regarding internal religious issues were raised in earnest.
2. Individuals identified as perpetrators: Pastor Lee, Paul Lee
At the center of the incident is Pastor Lee, whose real name is Lee Baul, known as the senior pastor of J Church in Siheung.
He was known as a figure with strong authority within the church, and
Testimonies continue to emerge that he was perceived as an absolute being among some believers.
In particular, the following circumstances are identified as key.
- Claim that they forced family-like relationships on believers
- Testimony that he made her call him “Dad”
- Keep relationships with specific believers a secret.
This structure is evaluated as a form different from typical religious communities.
3. The Dabak Doctrine Controversy and Allegations of Sexual Exploitation
The most controversial concept in this case is 'Dabak'.
Although it is a religious term originally in Hebrew meaning 'to attach' or 'to unite,'
Allegations have been raised that the church in question distorted and used this.
They justified their relationship under the pretext of spiritual union, and engaged in sexual acts disguised as acts of faith.
It is said that it was used as a doctrine to force obedience.
The severity of the incident is growing as some testimonies even mention spouse swapping and forced sexual relations.
4. The Gaslighting Structure: Why It Was Difficult to Break Free
Experts view this incident as a typical religious-style gaslighting structure.
- Blocking criticism through the absolutization of authority
- Psychological pressure through guilt induction
- Strengthening dependency through severance of external relationships
- Weakened judgment due to information blockage
In such an environment, it is difficult for the victim to recognize the problem on their own, and
Analysis suggests that it will be difficult to escape the situation.
5. Additional damage and spread of structural problems
There is a possibility that this incident could escalate into a structural problem rather than a single isolated event.
Since the broadcast, reports claiming similar damages have continued to pour in, and the possibility of additional victims is also being mentioned.
In addition, there are rumors circulating that some celebrities or broadcasting officials were believers,
As of now, there has been no official confirmation, so it remains at the level of an unconfirmed rumor.
Pastor Lee's whereabouts are currently unknown following the incident, and public opinion regarding the need for an investigation is growing.
