What exactly is going on...?
I've heard the story but I suppose I'm having a bit of a hard time making sense of all of it.

I found a comment on a soompi article that i think is easier to understand

By July of 2019, Baksa became one of the most notorious administrators. He approached women by claiming he had good connections for high-paying part time work. He then gathered the women’s personal data like their national identification numbers, bank account numbers, and profile pictures — insisting they must disclose such information to get paid on time. Once he collected all the information, he forced the women to create videos of themselves doing sexual acts. He threatened to reveal their identities to family, friends, and all over the internet. He also threatened to physically harm them had they not obliged to his orders. And by doing so, Baksa was able to push these women to keep making videos that became more cruel and humiliating.

The perpetrators and the viewers all referred to these women as “slaves”. In fact, Baksa made all of his victims to “carve the word Noye (slave) and/or Baksa” somewhere on their bodies — as a proof of promising loyalty to him. Among the 74 women who fell victim to his exploitation, 16 have been verified to be minors.

A little over a month into the investigation that followed the petition, the police were finally successful at pinning down the group chatroom administrators, including Baksa. The authorities estimate these men to have profited hundreds of thousands of dollars from distributing these illegally produced pornographic videos. Baksa is reported to have kept over $100,000 USD stashed away at his residence — assumed to be the cryptocurrency he made from his chatrooms cashed out.

People were using chat rooms on Telegram and Discord to distribute snuff films (some of the victims were minors, one as young as 11-years old) made thru coercion (threats of violence and/or doxxing). The most disturbing was called The Nth Room (minors and Hurtcore porn). There were about 260,000 people who paid to watch the snuff films distributed in various chat rooms. One of the people running the chat rooms (not specifically The Nth Room) has been outed: a 25- year old named Cho Joobin, who studied communications in college and had excellent grades. Another person allegedly running chat rooms was still a minor last year.
