Leading South Korean actor from the Netflix hit series Squid Game, O Young-su is all set to go on trial in February of 2023 after being accused of indecent assault.
Sources from local media outlets confirmed how a court in South Korea spoke about the celeb touching a woman in an inappropriate manner and now, he’s going to be investigated for the behavior.
The victim originally filed a lawsuit against the celeb last year but the case was closed at that time. Now, it has reopened and experts claim this could not be good for the star.
Just last week, we saw the actor be indicted over the allegations. And now, the date for the trial has been set and the confusion continues to deepen further.
The female victim was seen reportedly accusing him of making unwanted physical contact during a meeting that dates back to the year 2017.
As expected, the actor denies any form of wrongdoing and says it was all done consensually. This was done during a meeting. As mentioned by the celeb, he told one reporter from the JTBC that he held her hand to show the directly, despite her walking around a lake.
The case was reopened by the Suwon Prosecutor’s Office. This is located near the southern part of the city of Seoul. It is also mentioned that the actor denied the behavior in the past too and is still holding up a strong fight as he knows this is really defaming him.
Interestingly, he mentioned how he had repeatedly apologized to the victim and admitted the wrongdoing.
In January of this year, we saw the actor win the Globen Globe Award and that was a big deal for South Korea as he is the first native to do that.
