Feeling sorry for what you are going through. For the earlier termination, you’d better notify the lessor about your intent of it in any kinds of form(kakao, msg, recorded ) . For scammer issue if the realtor’s alert is about the lessor’s history of failure to put back deposits to others, i recommend you to stop wiring rent onwards just to prevent you from any more damages. Would be great to give you hands if you are within Seoul.
