[Dispatch=김지호기자] Actress Jin-woong Bae denied the allegations of sexual harassment and attempted rape. The contents of the complaint were false, and rather, he complained that he had suffered forcible harassment.
On the 12th, attorney Park Ji-hoon, the legal representative of Bae Jin-woong, said, “We ask you to refrain from making false reports about Bae Jin-woong.”
One media reported on the 11th that actor A was accused of sexual harassment and attempted rape. It is said that Mr. A called a female junior, Mr. B, to a villa in Gyeonggi-do and harassed him.
A’s real name was also revealed soon. Bae Jin-woong’s side pointed out, “This media has organized the content of the article so that it can be easily identified that the person (A) is Bae Jin-woong.”
However, he refuted that the charges were not true. “B’s complaint itself is true,” he stressed, “but the contents of the complaint are obviously false. We have also secured a number of evidence on this.”
He claimed that the perpetrator of the harassment was Mr. B, not Jin-woong Bae. “Before the report came out, on behalf of Jin-woong Bae, I sued Mr. B for forced harassment,” he announced.
Lastly, Bae Jin-woong added, “Several media have unilaterally reported on Mr. B’s malicious and ridiculous claims,” and added, “We will firmly respond to the spread of false information.”

Request to refrain from false reports about actor Jin-woong Bae
1. I am Park Ji-hoon, the legal representative of actor Bae Jin-woong, 「Law Firm (Yoo Han) Hyun」
2. 2020. 1. 11. The mother media reported that actor Bae Jin-woong is being investigated by the police for sexual harassment and attempted rape against her junior actor B. (The name Jin-woong Bae was not directly mentioned, but the character is actor Jin-woong Bae. The content of the article has been organized so that you can easily understand it). Since then, a number of media have been reporting the real name of actor Bae Jin-woong, taking over the content of the article as it is.
3. However, most of the media reports about actor Bae Jin-woong are not true. It is true that Mr. B accused actor Bae Jin-woong of’forced harassment’, but the details of Mr. B’s complaint are clearly false, and we have a lot of evidence on this. Therefore, before the report came out, our law firm had sued Mr. B for forced harassment on behalf of actor Bae Jin-woong.
4. The media unilaterally reported B’s malicious and ridiculous false allegations to actor Bae Jin-woong’s side as if they were true. This behavior cannot be said to have abandoned even a minimum of common sense and conscience as the media.
5. We are pleased to inform you that our law firm will firmly respond to the spread of unfounded false information about actor Bae Jin-woong.
