Hi there,
my application got rejected today due to the incorrect South Korean police certificate. In plan to appeal my case and Really appreciate it if you could forward me the emails you received from official sources. My email is
liuyuan0824@gmail.com. Million thanks!
Here is how you get an official letter regarding a police report which explains why it is illegal. I believe it may help you to explain.

Hi, if you haven't already done so, I recommend emailing the following about the situation:
toronto@mofa.go.kr - Korean consulate in Toronto
seoul-cs@international.gc.ca - Canadian Embassy in Korea
crc@police.go.kr - Korean National Police
I emailed all of them. It only took about 2 days for each of them to respond.
The Korean consulate and national police both said that the document is illegal to obtain. The Canadian embassy suggested that I submit the document provided without the lapsed records, along with any "supporting documents." I simply printed out all three of these emails and included them in my application, along with my own one page cover letter explaining the situation. I still haven't heard back on my application yet (I'm a September applicant), but based on what others have said here, I think this will be enough to satisfy the officer. When you can't provide what they are asking for, it's good to provide as much proof as possible as to why.
