ATEEN, a rookie group with 10 members has recently come out with KBS 연예가 중계 ( Entertainment Weekly ) on 8th Feb 2019, about they were sexually abused by their CEO’s wife and her sister. They were interviewed by the program MC and described what happened in the scenario.
Program captured photos.
All the K-pop fan from all over the world including Korea are now together with fighting for justice and support with harsh tag #justiceforateen. Asking for everyone to please support and spread the awareness in order for the group to get the justice they deserved.
Below is the translation on Allkpop article earlier:
Six male trainees, including some from 'Produce 101' season 2, have sued their label CEO.
The six trainees have filed a sexual assault suit against 'A', the CEO of their label, and 'B', an investor in the company, to the Seoul Central Police District on the 18th. Ten trainees, including the 6 in the lawsuit, had performances for about a month in Japan. On September 28, 2018, the trainees had dinner with the CEO at a sushi restaurant in Tokyo. At the dinner, 'A' and 'B' felt the trainees' bodies up.
There are trainees that were on 'Produce 101' season 2. While not victims, 2 underage boys were also present at the dinner. 'A' is the CEO of the company, and 'B' is the wife of a chairman, and have power over the boys. The suit claims that 'A' and 'B' used their position to force the boys into being touched. The boys are currently receiving therapy and have been scared of a second assault.
'A' and 'B' have currently denied all charges.
Hope everyone can support them with harsh tag #justiceforateen and follow them wishing them they will get the justice they deserved.
