The Bureau of Immigration (BI) is set to deport a South Korean man wanted by authorities in Seoul for sex crimes.
In a report to Immigration Commissioner Norman Tansingco, the BI’s fugitive search unit identified the fugitive as Go Taiyoung, 44, who was arrested along Diosdado Macapagal Blvd. in Paranaque City last Dec. 11.
Go will be deported immediately as he was already ordered expelled by the BI in 2021 when a summary deportation order was issued against him by the bureau’s board of commissioners.
The BI-FSU operatives who arrested him were armed with a warrant of deportation from Tansingco who issued the same pursuant to the said deportation order. #
He is temporarily detained at the BI warden facility in Camp Bagong Diwa, Taguig City while awaiting his flight to Korea.
BI-FSU chief Rendel Ryan Sy said Go is subject of an Interpol red notice issued in 2020 which stemmed from a criminal case for indecent act by compulsion that was filed against him in Korea.
A warrant for his arrest was reportedly issued against Go by the Seubo district prosecutor’s office in Seoul where the female victim filed her complaint.
The complainant alleged that Go forced her to commit an indecent act inside an internet café in Seoul where she worked on January 25, 2019.

She narrated that Go showed to her obscene materials saved on his mobile phone and that he even took out his private part and let it touch the victim’s right arm.
Tansingco hailed the Korean’s arrest, saying foreigners who are sex perverts should not be allowed to remain in the country. BI records show that Go last arrived in the country in November 2019.
Meanwhile, a South Korean man wanted in his home country for pimping, was arrested on Wednesday afternoon at the Bureau of Immigration’s (BI) head office in Intramuros.
The fugitive, identified as Oh Myunggyun, 49, was intercepted after attempting to extend his temporary visitors’ visa.
BI tourist visa section (TVS) Chief Raymond Remigio said that Oh was accosted after frontliner personnel Mark Vallejo and Lourdes Maliksi discovered that he has an active derogatory record.
Oh is the subject of a summary deportation order issued by the BI after having been charged for being a fugitive from justice. A warrant of arrest against Oh has been issued by the Korean government for arrangement of commercial sex acts, and his passport has already been revoked.
