Hmmm. Obviously i don't trust OP for sensitive posts

Does anyone have additional info on the accusations?

Here’s an article from Variety

this link says the sentence is suspended so the write-up in this post feels a little misleading! like I'm assuming he won't do any actual time as long as he completes the 40 hour treatment

[totteringg]

Yeah I noticed that too. It looks like the ET article just did a bad aggregating job because the suspended part is in the BBC article they link to too.

Man this cast has some shitty fucking people.

My friend was saying that Gong Yoo is probably a womaniser because he's just way too nice and she doesn't trust him because of that. I said that the man is good looking and seems to have a great disposition, of course he wakes up surrounded by naked people in his bed every morning.

Let us pray he is not a mess and we can keep enjoying him on our screens.

You should read this about his involvement with the bill in South Korea that protects minors and the disabled against sex crimes. He seems pretty amazing:

Gong Yoo is a good one

Men can have one foot in the grave and still find the energy to harass and assault women.

Yep. I was watching Black Swan last night and I'd forgotten the scene with the old guy in the subway, who make obscene gestures towards her. Suddenly I remembered the many times something similar happened to me and I felt like puking. Fuck men.

I actually find that the older they get, the worse they are, when I was a little girl the most sexual harassment I got came from old men

[tree_star123]

ugh im just reminded of time when I was little walking and could've sworn I had my butt groped but I turn around and see a 'feeble' old man pass by

[manu19]

Hugged. A kiss on the cheek. That’s it? Guess context matters, let me google more info.

Hugging seems pretty normal to me, especially by elderly

[queenursula]

Someone wrote this on Reddit

“It may be casual in other places, but in Korea it's absolutely not a thing people do, ever. They don't hug acquaintances and they don't even shake hands often, any touching is weird. Doing that to someone you aren't in a relationship with or at least very close to is 100% out of line and he definitely knew that, there's really no room for misunderstanding.”

I think there has to be more to it because he wouldn't be getting jail time otherwise. Get me google with you!

[screamingintune]

it's a suspended sentence

This makes me sad because I loved him in the Squid Games.
