During the final hearing of the case in the Suwon District Court, Squid Game actor O Yeong Su was accused of "sexually harassing a powerless junior member oof the theatre troupe." The prosecution added that the victim has been living in fear ever since the incident happened and said, "The victim has been living in fear both at work and in daily life." The prosecution reaffirmed its original request of a one-year prison sentence, which it asserted in the first hearing in the case.
"The defendant further hurt the victim by saying, 'I did it with the heart of a father', when she demanded an apology. His statements have remained consistent since the accusation was made and their credibility is well established," the lawyer added.

O Yeong Su's lawyer denied the charges and addressed the actor's apology to the victim. They said, "At the time, O Yeong Su was gaining global attention due to Squid Game and he was suddenly asked to apologise. He was caught off guard and only responded formally to avoid causing trouble for the production team." They also argued that the victim's statement lacked "specificity, consistency and logical coherence."
O Yeong Su, in his final statement, said, "I am ashamed to be standing in court at this age. If my words or actions were wrong, I will accept the consequences. However, even upon reflection, I do not believe I committed any act that could be considered assault." He further apologised and said, "If my careless words and actions hurt someone in our brief acquaintance, I regret that."슬롯 머신 사이트 추천슬롯사이트˜Squid Game슬롯사이트� Season 2 Review: High-Stakes Thrills, Performances and Gong Yoo슬롯사이트™s Standout Cameo Make for a Worthy but Flawed Netflix Sequel (LatestLY Exclusive).
