CNK International Co. was involved in the 2012 MOFAT Diamond Scandal, in which Kim Eun-seok, the then-energy-and-resources ambassador of Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, was accused of insider trading and stock manipulation. Kim Eun-seok had shared nonpublic information with family members prior to a press release from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that deliberately overstated the size of a Cameroon diamond mine.
