A rookie girl group member has accused her agency’s CEO of sexual harassment, as reported on JTBC's ‘Crime Chief’ aired on November 22. The program revealed key evidence, including recorded conversations between the members and the CEO, shedding light on the allegations.
According to the broadcast, one of the members detailed an incident where the CEO made inappropriate requests and comments. In the recording, the member reportedly pleaded, "Please just let me finish this promotion. That’s my only wish," to which the CEO allegedly responded, "If I grant your wish, will you grant mine?"
The member stated that the CEO went on to say, "My wish is for you to be my girlfriend for a day. Will you do that?" The demands reportedly escalated to physical advances.
The member alleged that the CEO forcibly tried to kiss her, asking, "Can I kiss you?" despite her clear discomfort. She claimed he attempted to force his tongue into her mouth while repeatedly kissing and licking her neck and ears.
Despite her continuous refusal, the member reported that the CEO persistently asked for two hours whether he could touch her body. She expressed deep fear and distress during the ordeal, describing the incident as a traumatic experience of sexual exploitation.
The agency CEO has denied the allegations, asserting that no such acts of sexual harassment occurred. The case has garnered widespread attention, with many calling for a thorough investigation to determine the truth behind the accusations.
As the claims continue to unfold, the entertainment industry and the public are closely watching for further developments in the case.
