Netflix deserves some blame too. They're cowards and they also decided not to distribute movie The Match because…
Really. He was accused of rape - but charges dropped due to lack of evidence. Its a big deal if its true even if there is not enough evidence to proceed with criminal charges.
now why are you generalising 💀 as someone from hk, me and my family, my friends, etc all despise him for what…
Curious - does public opinion in HK support him. Generally speaking. Are brands still backing him in HK?
Here in the UK there have been very few articles but not much attention has been given to this. I dont think S Korean artists are such a big deal here or talked about generally speaking.
I do have a feeling that there would be disapproval of the age gap and the fact that she was a minor if this reported here (and people cared about Korean actors).
Apparently genocide, and paedophilia are not as evil as being antisemitic.You become anti semitic the moment you…
I did not say that genocide was less evil at ALL.
Its not about being Jewish. I have a problem with anyone who supports ANY genocide whatever their race/nationality/ethnicity. And manipulating the narrative.
Not all Jewish people support this genocide. Huge respect for those who speak out against the atrocities. Actually there are a lot of right wing christians support this genocide.
My last attempt to respond to the evidence question was to explain that Prada—using one example—can cancel…
Even a legal professional cant answer the question on what basis Prada terminated the contract unless they look at the specific contract clauses / details.
Unless you have privy to the contracts and have insider information/ or you are a legal expert dealing with the contracts then don't pretend to be an authority on the legal positon. Stick to the facts you know.
People should not parade as legal / medical / tax experts unless they have that background - and are familiar with case/facts.
There is enough bullying and misinformation from so called "experts". Not disputing the fact that he groomed her at 15 yrs or that he sent her demand notices, or that GM has been caught being dishonest. Those are facts.
But stop giving "expert" opinions when its personal opinions.
That is why I am wondering what laws he actually broke when it was legal to have sex with someone over 13. Otherwise the police would be on involved now. (I read that is why her family cant press charges or go after him as easily)
Grooming is a subjective definition - based on our values.
If a child is over 13yrs old it would not be considered grooming in the eyes of the law before 2020.
If you are arguing that what he did was illegal then why are the police not involved? Why cant the family press charges. You know why. His actions of grooming and having sex with a minor over 13 were totally legal prior to 2020.
Its all very well quoting current law but you missed the point.
Actually the law was changed in 2020 I believe. Before that the age of consent was 13. So the grooming was very much legal. Otherwise the family would sue him directly and the police would be involved.
Serious legal question. I wonder if there was a morality clause for the Disney production. Still I do hope Disney loses money as well. They are known for exploiting child actors and sexual for abuse of minors. They have also hired child molesters ( Brian Peck, Bryan Singer) and protecting them.
Would they be able to get damages? KSH did not break any legal laws - and from my understanding grooming of a 15 year old minor was allowed under Korean Law, and sending letters of demand for payment outstanding is not illegal). Would he be subject to Korean or international /US law.
I wonder if the terms are well defined, or broad regarding scandals and violations of ethics. Brands are terminating relationships. How do they argue "morals or ethics" when he played by the legal rules.
His mistakes were the lies after revelations came out (he could have apologised) and handling of the situation with KSR (showed some compassion re debt etc). Otherwise he would have gotten away with it and society would not have blinked.
It’s time to boycott the whole Korean entertainment industry. If Kim Pedo can do this and there’s no actor…
The fact that a lot of companies (Prada included) are dropping him says a lot. They would have consulted their legal and PR teams. They are not associating with someone who is a groomer and who lacks morals. (not that companies really they care about morals - but they care about public perception and their brand.
Nothing changes the fact that KSR (chose) committed suicide on KSH birthday, and that he (an adult nearing 30) pursued and groomed her when she was 15yrs old. She was exploited and abused.
But her parents need to address the recent allegations that she was married/abortion - or at least issue a statement that due to legal proceedings they cant discuss anything further.
They started on this path of transparency and exposing the truth - so they need to address any uncomfortable rumours
They tried to distract people by creating new allegation. I hope KSR's family don't openly response to such nonsense…
It could be a distraction but they should address it either way. The family are fighting for the truth and for transparency. Thus they should be transparent with the facts - favourable or unfavourable.
They should continue to file the defamation complaints.
As I said the fact that she may have married/aborted is irrelevant to the fact that there was grooming and exploitation and defamation.
Have her parents addressed the recent allegations that she was married/abortion. Are they going to address this. I do think that they should set the record straight (because they started on this path of transparency and exposing the truth).
The above does not change the fact that she (chose) committed suicide on KSH birthday, and that he (an adult nearing 30) pursued and groomed her when she was 15yrs old - and exploited and abused her . That exploitation/abuse ended with her death.
I think her trauma with KSH negatively affected her life decisions going forward.

You become anti semitic the moment you point out the apartheid, genocide of Palestinians, the concentration camps they have set up etc.

We would call it grooming, the law would call it legal prior to 2020

It sucks how many do get away with it.
