Thank you

#

Yeah I figured it was the link

#

I really feel for whoever the victim is I hope they got help, are receiving help or whatever they need

#

Nothing else I would post the tweet with the link if you didn’t post it for me

#

oh my....

languid cape
#

A lot of people are speculating who it is but I feel it’s wrong cause there’s a lot of potentials and you don’t want to frame the wrong person

#

If the sentence is true we will probably know sometime in the future who

restive wharf
#

and this is a serious offense

#

this isn't gossip tea time

languid cape
#

It very much is a Serious offense not to be taken lightly for fan wars or stuff

TW: Former Idol ||SA|| charged

#

Thanks Kel

languid cape

#

And that they left the group after the ||incident||

Well part of the sentence mentions that they will be “publically disclosed” granted I’m not the most familiar with how Korean justice system works

#

I saw the article on this and after reading it went and made this post

restive wharf
#

that's crazy

…

#

That’s…. A lot

#

I wish the victim can recover from this :((

#

And I’m glad they’re getting justice

#

It’s definitely to protect the victim. They might not want their identity to be known which is totally understandable.

#

Especially if they’re still in the industry

plucky kestrel

#

The punishment is clearly not enough tho

dusky vector
#

it also says the perpetrator will be "publicly disclosed" so maybe we will find out at a later date

#

That’s just how court ruled it

#

Ofc this type of action in our eyes there should be more prison time but the courts ruling is final

dusky vector
tawdry viper
#

Anyways i hope the justice will be served

novel ledge
#

Honestly though part of me is glad that the victims anonymous because speaking out about this and having to go through it is a lot and ik this would become a large thing if kpop Stan’s knew all the details

dusky vector
#

especially since they're still active

novel ledge
#

Knowing Stan twt it would be a mess mccri

novel ledge

#

if they're ready and want to disclose it to the public when they're ready, that's their decision

blazing shard

#

i'm just glad that they were so brave and went to the police

#

there's a stigma with coming out and speaking about these types of things, especially when you're a man

tawdry viper

#

I do hope they get some sort of break and time to get through this instead of their company forcing a new cb on them

#

Their health must’ve peaked with this

dusky vector
#

what shocks me is this happened in 2021

#

well technically it started in 2017 but the victim went to the police in 2021

blazing shard

#

but then again i know courts take a long time with these things

#

I thought the victim reported it recently that’s why News medias reported on it

#

Ohhhhh

#

So they make the sentence this year and let the victim continue working with the ||abu*er|| for 2 years or group activities stopped after reporting?

novel ledge
#

No he prolly got kicked out once the victim reported it

The ||abser|| from what I understand left the group (or probs got kicked out) of the group back in 2021 and was reported to have left for personal reasons. They I guess just took 2 years investigation which an investigation like this is big and deserves delicate care to make sure the ||abser|| gets charged

tawdry viper
#

the amount of speculation i've been seeing online is just 😕. Like everyone atp is naming so many random groups and that actually makes me rly annoyed because like what. There's probably like 20 groups out there in the situation they described and what A did is serious and if people start going around naming random groups that are innocent that's just :( I've seen so many people saying "omg its definitely ___".

Also i want to say I'm really proud of the victim. The fact that they went to the police and stood up for themselves makes me really happy. Hopefully the victim is getting treated better and starting to get better because I know situations like this can be hard for people.

Also would like to have a mini complaint, 3 years?!?!??! I'm shocked tbh. 3 years to me is not enough for what A did. Like what.

languid cape
#

Yeah same but at least he is getting charged even when it’s def not enough to us I don’t know how the Korean justice system works for things like this

#

I debated mentioning but because the speculation, OOO’s company actually made a statement saying it’s not any of their members (obviously what I posted is fan translated)

tawdry viper
#

i found that actually sad that the speculation with it being OOO got so big that the company themselves had to release something

OH

#

Assumably yes

#

People were speculating a lot that it was about Love

#

i saw that on thier twt this morning and i was SAUR confused

#

Frankly as long as the victim gets the help they need and possibly even the group getting help rather they knew sooner or are just finding out too

#

I don’t really find the necessity to speculate or find out the group

short pebble
#

im glad that the culprit is getting charged but there is something in this article that stood out to me was this part of the article TW: mentions of SA ||"Trainees in the entertainment industry spend long periods in confined spaces such as training camps or practice rooms from a young age, making them vulnerable to violence and sexual crimes that occur within their agency and group. Experts have pointed out that the agency is in a legal blind spot because it is not an employment/educational institution, so it does not have the duty to prevent or protect trainees against sex crimes."|| like what do they mean agencies dont have the duty to prevent or protect? its THEIR job to protect cause their taking in other people's kids, like what is made up of these idol contracts.

#

like the laws really need a reform cause do they not have inspectors for training companies like fast foods & beauty supplies do?

#

and this made me rethink my stance on "one or two minors in a full adult group is ok cause the adults can protect them" but like what if they end up ||abused||, even if they arent a minor bullying within groups have happened before so imagine the power imbalance between these huge age gaps

short pebble

#

There's a part of this thing that makes me extremely concerned for the industry in general. Like mentioned in this quote, the trainees of companies basically spend 24/7 together in the dorms, practice rooms, and company places in general. Knowing many trainees nowadays are minors, it makes me extremely concerned. There's always been that thought of minors debuting in groups, especially ones with 20 years olds resulting in groups with 6+ years age gap. Huge age gaps can result in stuff like this. It makes me even more concerned to the amount of groups with 1-2 minors then a person 6-7 years older than them. With the number of groups like that, and then this scandal coming out, it makes me worried if this goes on anywhere else. How many people might have had experienced this as well. The lawyers in the article pointed out how ||young trainees are vulnerable to situations like this|| since a) they spend a lot of time in the practice rooms that are also used by many older/senior trainees, b) they're age itself puts them at a disadvantage when it comes to almost everything from mentality, physical ability(debatable) and other stuff, c) It's harder for minors to speak our abt situations like this from police believing them, company leaders believing them, and more. I'm worried, really, for exactly what goes on in some of these companies as more things come out like this in the past years.

This is shocking… Idk who it is but he deserves prison sentence

drowsy berry
#

Why are prison sentences in korea get so low... Whenever i see someone say they were drunk during the heinous act... Does the judiciary system doesn't care about the victim at all... 3 years just 3 years... That's just f'ed up

#

Even though he did felt remorse for doing it but didn't felt it enough to not use the being drunk excuse

#

It reminded me of this movie i just saw yesterday called Hope

drowsy berry
#

Very Heavy TW here too please see it with caution i have censored sensitive names but still... || The movie refers to a case of a__ault that took place in Ansan, South-Korea, in December 2008, in which an eight-year-old girl was ki*ap_ed and r*ed by a 56-year-old male, in a bathroom inside a church. This severely damaged the victim's body. He was sentenced to only 12 years in prison...

The person has a such a bad history too....In 1983, at age 31, he r_*ed a 69-year-old woman who worked nearby where he lived; she needed 302 days of treatment to recover. He was sentenced to 3 years in prison for this crime. After his release, he was fined several times for various violent crimes, including the assault of a bar hostess. In 1995, while drinking, C assaulted a man in his 60s to d**th, because he praised a controversial president. Because he was deemed feeble-minded, he was sentenced to 2 years and admitted into a psychiatric hospital... I always think it wouldn't have happened if he had been given longer sentences...
The girl was left with permanent damage to her lower abdomen and was told she would be permanently disabled. She needed 8 months of treatment and had to take trips to Seoul every weekend. She was told she would need to use a *olostomy bag for the rest of her life but underwent a successful surgery to implement an artificial *nus

And the worst part is he was originally sentenced to life imprisonment, but after the girl testified that he smelled like alcohol, his sentenced was reduced to 12 years in prison... That's how much f'ed is this system and not to mention the fact he is again roaming free the grounds now ||

and i believe they lived in the same neighborhood (correct me if i am wrong)

#

onlyoneof's company released a statement already denying that they were involved. the finger pointing is faster than i thought

wispy skiff
#

Ik it’s a bit sensitive for me to ask this but do we have a bit of clue as to who is the perpetrator?

velvet glade
#

This is the kind of situation you shouldn't speculate about imo it's too serious of a situation to create rumors based not on facts but personal belief of who people think would be capable of such

restive wharf
#

no people are pointing their fingers at myteen and onf but onf laun left in 2019 and myteen is already disbanded. shows that people is just eager to point fingers and and are that careless. its not a situation to take lightly so speculations would be so wrong

drowsy berry
#

Look at least the guy is out of the industry now... So it doesn't matter now you and me are not going to unknowingly support this guy now... If the victim does not want it to be disclosed we don't have any right whatsoever to speculate and point fingers and find it out

Okay… I only asked once….

#

One person replying to me is enough 😅

#

This is a discussion and I know it can be overwhelming to have so many replies but everyone has their own opinion and free will to share it

languid cape
#

I still can’t and don’t wanna speculate who it is for the victims sake but figured I’d share here

restive wharf
#

a movie wow

young mason
#

that's unsettling...

tawdry viper
#

well that narrows down a lot...

tawdry viper
languid cape
#

Yeah

#

That’s my thing on this too

#

I don’t watch many movies but at the same time…

#

But I also don’t want the Victim to be speculated on and stuff if the person is revealed or for the victim to have to come out

#

Unless the victim wants to come out with what happened themselves but even then

tawdry viper
#

Maybe not us because i also don't watch much movies but imagine nobody knows and he grows his fame bigger and bigger. It's scary

languid cape
#

Yeah I dunno this whole thing is scary

tawdry viper
#

It really is

smoky coyote
#

can they stop giving out more information about the perpetrator
as much as i want to know their name to not cry after a disgusting person, the victim needs to be protected in order to have the chance of healing without the fans or the media constantly reminding him of the trauma

#

especially since it will only harm even more innocent people

blazing shard
#

There’s a reason why their identity isn’t being revealed and i think we should respect that /nbr

smoky coyote
#

agreed

blazing shard
#

And even if the identities do get revealed it should not be a spectacle not saying anyone here is doing that but because of their privacy it’s best to just not speculate any further

smoky coyote
#

off topic for a sec
what does /nbr stand for
