TRIGGER WARNING: Singer and famous idol composer arrested for illegally filming, drugging, and r*ping trainee causing her suicide
A guitarist-turned-singer and songwriter A has been arrested by police for causing death of a trainee.
According to a report by MBC's "News Desk" on the 3rd, a woman in her 20s (B),an aspiring idol, was discovered dead in April with a suicide note that read, "I was raped and distressed by someone."
The bereaved family filed a complaint stating that her death is related to her ex-boyfriend, A, a singer and famous idol composer who illegally filmed and raped her after drugging her. Police have launched an investigation and seized the singer's cell phone and computer.
Two months after her death, B's father belatedly found out from his dead daughter's cell phone that she had been "drugged with alcohol" and "worse done to her." Her father found a message from her daughter to an acquaintance where she wrote, "I can't do anything and feel like I'm losing my mind."
The alleged assailant is her ex-boyfriend, a singer-songwriter that participated in the album production of a famous idol recently.
According to B's acquaintances, B confessed that "he had illegally filmed and raped her" during the time they dated. It was also reported that B was in pain after watching the illegal footage sent by A.
Her acquaintance recalled her B's words where she told her, "I took a sip [liquor] and blacked out with foam coming out of my mouth. I don't remember what happened afterwards but I was lying naked in bed as he filmed a video of me."
A denied the allegations telling MBC reporters that the accusations were "groundless."
His lawyer also countered stating, "It's just a one-sided claim by the accuser. A has never acted or done anything immoral or illegal."
Police are investigating the case, however, A has been booked on charges of sexual violence, rape, and injury. Police are currently analyzing digital evidence from his cellphone and computer that were secured through a search and seizure of his home.
Netizens' reactions:
Demographics: Males: 75%; Female: 25%
Age Range: 10s - 0% ; 20s - 5% ; 30s - 24% ; 40s - 38% ; 50s - 24% ; 60s - 9%
1. [+707, -9] The dead can't speak but everything will be revealed during investigations. You can't cover the sky with your hands.
2. [+382, -22] Given that the average person lives 100 years...he needs to be jailed for all the years he took from her. She was in her 20s so it only makes sense that he gets an 80 year sentence..
3. [+284, -16] Chung Bobby
4. [+231, -10] I've been hearing a lot about '79 er Bobby Chung that apparently participated in composing BTS' song and went to Yonsei?...Looks like he'll be headed to jail soon.
5. [+57, -3] Is there anyone that would ever admit to something like that and throw away their life?
6. [+49, -1] They keep saying famous singer but I get the feeling he's not that famous..
7. [+50, -4] Criminals don't deserve rights...release his name and investigate him thoroughly!
8. [+47, -3] Who is it??
9. [+42, -4] How? You couldn't even catch Seungri with Burning Sun????!
10. [+18, -1] If you can't reveal his name don't write the article!!

That's so fucked up?? She probably knew that even if she sued and reported him he'd get tops 5 months of probation, seeing how Hara's abuser got almost nothing done to him and he did all those atrocious things. I hate this so much.

How fucking disgusting do you have to be to target young women? It doesn't help either that Seungri and YG survived Burning Sun with no charges, and JJY and CJH get super reduced sentences, and she probably thought there was no escape anymore except taking her own life. I'm livid, what the fuck.

Date: 2020-11-05 05:38 pm (UTC)I'm so disappointed, the law is failing woman so much to the point were the only answer to them is this. I wouldn't be surprised if women start carrying weapons and take things to their own hands too, which heavily worries me bcs the assholes who run the Korean gov will probably not count it as self defense in most cases. Just looking at how most celebs got away with their BS, if I was a woman in SK, I would also having little to no hope about justice being made. This is hella sad ugh
