Squid Game star Oh Yeong-su acquitted of sexual misconduct
https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/squ...ct-1236574733/
An appellate court in South Korea has overturned a lower court’s 2024 sexual misconduct conviction against the 81-year-old Oh that found him guilty of sexually harassing a woman during a 2017 regional theater tour. Oh was accused of hugging and kissing the woman on the cheek without her consent. The appellate court acknowledged that suspicion existed, but expressed concern about the possibility of the victim’s memory being distorted over time and emphasized the need to protect the defendant’s interests when doubts remain. Oh was previously given an eight-month suspended sentence. The alleged victim spoke out against today’s verdict, saying: “Despite today’s ruling, I will continue to speak the truth to the very end.” Squid Game Season 1 made Oh internationally famous. He won the Golden Globe for best performance by an actor in a supporting role on TV in 2022. |
