Jung Joon Young's ex-girlfriend who accused him of illegally filming her speaks out after 5 years

AKP STAFF

Jung Joon Young's ex-girlfriend who accused him of illegally filming her spoke out after 5 years.

In September of 2016, Jung Joon Young's ex-girlfriend 'A' filed a police report against the former singer for a sex crime. Though she later withdrew all her claims, 'A' has now spoken up once again in the midst of Jung Joon Young's 5-year prison sentence for group sexual assault. When it was revealed 'A' was his ex-girlfriend, all charges against him were dropped, and the case was settled. The investigation into Jung Joon Young for illegally filming women during sex acts was also terminated after he was acquitted.

In a YouTube video from December of 2019 about 'Jung Joon Young's Chatroom', 'A' made a post about her experience with her suit against him. On why she withdrew her claims against Jung Joon Young, 'A' explained, "I was afraid I'd be accused of making false accusations and ruin my life." 

She continued, "I want to take this opportunity to correct my story, which hasn't been known or properly told for 5 years now that the case has been closed and the truth has been revealed." 'A' then said the biggest reason she dropped the charges is because she was told by police there was insufficient evidence, and she would be charged with causing personal pain against the former celebrity. 

'A', who was about to graduate college at the time, said, "No matter how serious Jung Joon Young's crime might have been, it was a critical time for me, and I decided it would be dangerous to make accusations against a celebrity and it could lead to an unfair criminal record for me." She added, "I wanted to get out of the situation and focus on preparing for employment. I thought I could prevent unnecessary media reports that could cause secondary damage to me only if Jung Joon Young was acquitted quickly. You may think it's stupid, but the social atmosphere at the time made it clear there would be interest in the victim, and the specific damage of a sex video would drag me down in the future. I thought I should stop before it got too out of hand."

As for Jung Joon Young's group sexual assault charges, 'A' commented, "If I had known Jung Joon Young was a vicious person who violated human rights and even sexually assaulted women, distributing videos of many other women besides me. I would never have cooperated with Jung Joon Young."

She concluded, "After [his acquittal in 2016], I became an official liar and thought about who would even believe me in the future. I should have endured it," adding, "I want to let other victims know the crime is not your fault, that it's not your shame, that it's okay if you didn't fully deal with it, and that it's not your fault a criminal trampled on your life."

To think that the victims would even consider that being assaulted was their fault scares the shit out of me --- The act of sexual assault is the perpetrators wrongdoing, not the victim's. Just because he's a celebrity it doesn't mean he should be favoured in court against a normal citizen; whoever decided that the celebrity should be favoured just because of his status is out of their mind.
