RKB, a South Korean law firm, plans to sue Do Kwon on behalf of its investors and file a temporary attachment order on his property. South Korean parliamentarians have also proposed to hold a hearing on the LUNA incident and to allow executives of the crypto exchange and Do Kwon to attend. Currently, governance proposal No. 1623 to rebuild Terra network is being voted on.
