[아이뉴스24 이도영 기자] Kwon Min-ah, from girl group AOA, confessed that she had been raped during her school days. On the 7th, Kwon Min-ah confessed about the sexual assault damage in her middle school days through her Instagram live broadcast.
He was shocked by saying, “When I was in junior high school, I was beaten with beer bottles by my seniors and raped by a male senior. A celebrity that I can only know by telling my name.”
Kwon Min-ah said, “Since the family life became difficult from elementary school, I had to earn living expenses as soon as I became a middle school student. I had more days to work part-time than the days I went to school.” I’ve also been subjected to gang assault,” he said.
He said, “Once my friend said where he was going, I was worried, so I went with him. But in an empty house, he was hit and kicked with a beer bottle by his older brother in an empty house. There were several male students behind him. I still remember my name and face.”
Kwon Min-ah said, “I was sexually assaulted by a male senior. He is a celebrity that can be known by name.”
“After being raped, I was so angry. I couldn’t walk well, so I crawled back home. I couldn’t even report it because if my parents knew something bigger would happen. I didn’t want to be spotted by my mother, so I covered the bruises all over my body with clothes. At that state. I had to work part-time at the same time. Afterwards, I came up as if running away from Busan to Seoul,” he recalled at the time.
He said, “If I think about it now, I wonder how I would endure it. After reporting it, I felt like I had to fight again. Isn’t the law right?” and said, “My friend’s uncle chased them. My uncle met the perpetrators in the bathhouse and punished them. The perpetrators also apologized to me,” he said.
Kwon Min-ah also discussed my harassment issue in AOA again and said, “I feel bad because I think I know that I have received apology and recognition and have been treated well. I hope that the perpetrator will not have nightmares without attempting suicide or becoming popular. I hope the day will come,” he added.
“I have not been treated for depression for 10 years, so I am doing all tests and medications again to find the correct cause. I want to go back to the day when I was exposed. I will be upright and calmly writing down one by one.” “If someone is suffering from a weak victim somewhere, don’t try to avoid it by confessing everything to your agency and taking medicine. I’m not a good example.”
