The entrepreneur-turned-politician, a former presidential candidate of the third-largest People's Party, is at the center of public criticism here, after one of his party members was detained for allegedly fabricating information to defame President Moon Jae-in.
The party is suspected of spreading false information during the recent presidential race that Moon's son Joon-yong received favors when applying for a job at a state-run company.
The snowballing scandal drove down AhnLab shares to close at 50,200 won on the tech-heavy KOSDAQ, Friday, down 500 won or 0.99 percent from the previous day. This was the lowest this year.
AhnLab stock has fluctuated in recent months. It reached a record high of 149,000 won at the end of March when his support rating was neck-and-neck with Moon's.
But Ahnlab's corporate value has since seen a steep downfall, as Ahn began to lose the public trust after failing to make a strong impression during a series of televised presidential debates.
Ahn's uncertain fate is also casting a cloudy outlook of the firm's weakening valuation. He has been keeping a low profile after the controversy erupted last week, with the public calling for his official apology.
Ahn stepped down from the AhnLab presidency in 2005 and has since shifted his career into being a professor and a politician.

No specific evidence has been found on Ahn playing a part in the scandal. The prosecution detained the party member, Lee You-mi, who was a student of Ahn's when he was a professor at KAIST, Tuesday.
