A famous PD, known as Mr. A, who has directed several popular variety shows, has been accused of sexual assault.
According to Korea Economic Daily report on the 31st, a production staff member, Ms. B, who was working with Mr. A on a new season of a show, filed a criminal complaint against him for sexual assault at the Mapo Police Station in Seoul last August.
Ms. B claimed that during a company dinner, she experienced unwanted physical contact from Mr. A. After she rejected the contact, Mr. A made deeply insulting comments to her and told her she was being removed from the show.
Ms. B's lawyer, Lee Eun-ui, stated, "The victim suffered psychological trauma and damage to her career. Initially, she wanted the company to solve the problem internally. However, the company's response were insufficient, leading her to file a lawsuit."
The company conducted its own investigation and reportedly informed Ms. B that they only acknowledged part of the sexual assault allegations, but denied claims of workplace harassment. However, Mr. A denies all the accusations. It is reporter that both sides disagreed with the company's investigation results and have filed appeals against it.
