Already seen her with a young guy, Park Bo Gum, and that was 3 years ago. It was all sorts of awkward, to me, with that age gap. I don't see Jang Ki Young being any different. Maybe he can pull it off because he's more macho looking and acting and can seem OLDER if he tries really hard, but Song Hye Ko needs to have a more mature CP partner.
I made an error in their titles: 1) Shi De is CEO of Hua Cing Technology, and the creator of the company's new…
LOL. I'm an American citizen who loves to watch Asian dramas, and has been on MDL for a few years. That's all. Nothing more, nothing less. I'm not employed by anyone. I even do edits for MDL without getting a thing in return. I just have that kind of time to devote to this stuff, I guess. ;)
I made an error in their titles: 1) Shi De is CEO of Hua Cing Technology, and the creator of the company's new…
I'm sorry if you took how I said that as being rude. I had no intention of demeaning your thoughts or comments whatsoever. I apologize if you took it this way. =/
Everyone was confused, myself including, so I would never infer anything by it. Again, I apologize.
All I'm saying is that, I posted a comment on the calculations of it all, and basically came to the same conclusion each time, that it has been 5 years since these two have been face-to-face with each other.
After he hit him he said, "...there's only hatred. Get out or I'll call the police and sue you for trespassing..."so,…
I'm only being fair. Shi De stopped Shu Yi from walking away from him by grabbing him by the arm and getting in his face. He already told him to "get out" and to not "touch the refrigerator". Once he grabbed Shu Yi and blocked him physically after all the other times he didn't heed Shu Yi's "NO"s, I don't mind that Shu Yi hit him. Again, Shi De was asking for it, knowing how angry Shu Yi is at that moment and ignoring his demands. =/
I made an error in their titles: 1) Shi De is CEO of Hua Cing Technology, and the creator of the company's new…
I think the special episode's opening monologue of Gao Shi De, along with the written calculations had people confused. Regardless, I did the calculation, and the special episode says exactly 5 years no matter how you slice it.
What we do know for sure is that Shu Yi stuck out a LDR for a minimum of 1 year after Shi De left for the USA, all while being ghosted & neglected by Shi De. Maybe the time when Shu Yi takes that flight and finally actually calls it quits is after 2 years.
Bottom Line is, you can't run around and around on FACTS specifically given in Episode 1 in THIS series, no matter how confused you are about the timeline from the special episode.
A female employee specifically states: "The CEO just parachuted from the US last week to handle the M&A on behalf of the chairman." Later on that same day, Yu Zhen Xuan then states: "You 2 have a grudge." Shi De states: "It's personal." To which Zhen Xuan replies: "But it's affecting our company. Your mother sent you back here, but it doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. *sigh* Mama's boy." Add to this Shi Zhe Yu's discussion with Shu Yi about being surprised seeing Shi De as CEO, not knowing he was in Taiwan, and the mutual discussion with Bing Wei that this is the first time Shu Yi has talked to Shi De, in person, since he left to the USA, I don't know how much clearer it can be.
With multiple validations, 1 from a female employee, another from Yu Zhen Xuan himself, then Shu Yi's entourage, that Shi De just came from the US just recently, that's perfect confirmation, as far as I'm concerned.
Shu Yi hit Shi De twice in one episode. The first one I was like...okay, he gets to have one of those (and it…
After he hit him he said, "...there's only hatred. Get out or I'll call the police and sue you for trespassing..."so, tbh imo, the 2nd time was more warranted than the 1st.
I got the 1st was on impulse from unexpectedly being confronted with Shi De for the 1st time in 5 years.
But, the 2nd, I fully understood why Shu Yi did it. Shi De is being pushy. The guy just pushed his way into Shu Yi's home and NEVER got permission... not ONE time... Not to come in.. Not to come on to him & sexually harass him by saying, "I'll go after you again. I'm not giving up, no matter how angry you are at me..." while grabbing his arm... Not to cook the meal he cooked. Go back and watch it. Tell me 1x when Shu Yi gave Shi Di permission to enter his private home and do ANY of the things he did while he was there. Then I'd politely say, you should reassess Shu Yi's reaction, that came along with a threat to call the cops. If we're being perfectly legal, you can defend yourself from anyone trespassing on your home. Shi De was asking for it even after he was already hit.
And, no, I don't condone violence or his actions... I'm just saying that, within the context of the story, Shu Yi hitting Shi De twice was within the parameters of Shu Yi's personality and the context of the situation.
Okay, I think I've put 2+2 together and got the answer now.First 2 [Gao Shi De]:He went to the USA, for what was…
I made an error in their titles:
1) Shi De is CEO of Hua Cing Technology, and the creator of the company's new Alpha Project. Per 1 female employee's statement, at the start of episode 1, Shi De has only arrived from USA 1 week prior to the opening scene at the company, when he meets Shu Yi. Yu Zhen Xuan later states that his mother sent him to handle the M&A between Hua Cing Technology & Cheng Yi Corp on behalf of the Chairman.
2) Shu Yu refers to himself as VP. He has been sent to handle the M&A between Hua Cing Technology & Cheng Yi Corp by Cheng Yi's Board. His dad is CEO of the company and this task is for the Board to see if he is qualified to takeover his dad's spot as CEO of Cheng Yi. At some point Bing Wei comments that the reason they are there, and willing to firing Hua Cing Tech employees is over the new Alpha Project and they need to provide Cheng Yi higher ups details about it and its progress.
seems logical..only things1. We know shi de has met yu's dad before2. yu suffered some tough phase and shide was…
I imply the cause to both your #1 & #2 points when I wrote: "..This is, obviously, no coincidence.." It's no coincidence the companies involved. It's no coincidence the families involved in the companies. It's no coincidence that this caused Shi De to be unavailable for Shu Yi and neglect him.
As I also said, the real reason hasn't even been hinted at so, I'm only giving my hypothesis on what I know for sure. I acknowledge my suspicion that "...Shu Yi's father is behind the problems [at Hua Cing] and offered the bailout with conditions..." I'd also say that Shu Yi's dad, whatever problems may be stated at Cheng Yi, is likely conjuring that as well, to get him back to Japan, focused on anything other than Shi De. It could be real or manufactured, but we're going to find out.
One thing is for sure, based on Ep. 1, Hua Cing's ALPHA PROJECT is important to Cheng Yi and Shu Yi's dad, but Shi De's company are keeping a tight lid on it. So, there's obviously a lot of company shenanigans between the OTP and their families, imo.
I support your theories. Though the case with the lady and baby Oscar remains still a huge gap. At this point,…
It doesn't matter what we know about her because it won't change Shu Yi's reaction to it. Shu Yi doesn't care at this point, since he never once questions Shi De about being "married with a kid". She's not in Taiwan with Shi De. At the time, it's just an individual Shi De gave time to over Shu Yi being just a confirmation & catalyst to end things.
Okay, I think I've put 2+2 together and got the answer now.
First 2 [Gao Shi De]:
He went to the USA, for what was supposed to be 3 months, to be with his mom at her wedding, and make sure she's settled into her new life in a new country.
Gao Shi De & his mom did not own a business, so the family business is his step-dad's company, Hua Cing Technology. Within the first few months, something medical happened to his step-dad and Gao Shi De was forced to step in, and likely finishing his higher education in the USA in something to help the company. This is likely the reason that Gao Shi De was not attentive and seemed always too busy for Shu Yi. It is likely that some of what was going on was stuff that was too sensitive or too related to Shu Yi, that Gao Shi De chose not to elaborate on the situation, in order to protect him, or some such nonsense.
The company started to struggle in the following 5 years, and needed a bailout to survive, thus, agreed to do a merger with Cheng Yi Corp, which is Shu Yi's father's company. This is, obviously, no coincidence. Although this hasn't been previewed or hinted, I'm going to suspect that Shu Yi's father is behind the problems and offered the bailout with conditions.
We know that Gao Shi De actually hasn't been heading up the Taiwan division but until recently, since his mom only just sent him there to *handle* the merger process.
Second 2 [Shu Yi]:
Let's just start with: Shu Yi has always been an arrogant hot-head. Nothing has changed, it's only gotten worse.
Without Gao Shi De elaborating on what's going on, Shu Yi is left to make some stark assumptions, but let's note that this is after a year of sticking it out while being ghosted quite frequently. When you're in a LDR and start getting ghosted, there isn't a human being on the planet, male OR female, that doesn't automatically believe that the person has lost interest in you and the relationship, and it doesn't always have to mean they found someone new, although that's usually the reason, if we're being honest. Shu Yi has been feeling neglected for quite a while, and because of his personality also tries to do slight retaliations, like ghosting Gao Shi De as well. Of course, games like these only solidify the feelings of neglect and lead to bitterness.
Shu Yi by-passes a flight to the USA on his way to go to his dad's company to help him out. What pisses off Shu Yi when he comes upon Gao Shi De is NOT that he thinks he's in a relationship or has a kid, it's that Gao Shi De has time to sit with this person and her kid eating cake in a park BUT doesn't have enough time to even bother to TEXT Shu Yi weeks at a time. The realization that Gao Shi De doesn't prioritize his relationship with Shu Yi like he does hits him hard. The thing that made Shu Yi interested, in the first place, was, in part, Gao Shi De's hot pursuit, love & devotion. In Shu Yi's mind, that doesn't exist anymore, so there's no point in the relationship, & he ends it.
2+2=4 [The End Result}:
Neither Gao Shi De's mother, nor Shu Yi's dad knew what the outcome was going to be when they sent their sons to handle their company business.
Members of Cheng Yi were unaware that Gao Shi De was recently put in place as Hua Cing Technology's CEO of the Taiwan division to handle their merger. Cheng Yi's Board of Directors just sent Shu Yi, as Cheng Yi's CEO, to handle the merger with Hua Cing Technology to show that he's experienced enough to take over his dad's position as the Board of Director's Chairman.
Their first encounter is totally unexpected by both, and not pre-arranged. Of course, they both knew they were meeting the CEO of each other's company but didn't realize who that was since they were all recent maneuvers. This is why Gao Shi De looks shocked when Shu Yi walks in, and why Shu Yi slaps him. They haven't seen each other since they departed, nothing has been resolved, and they were not prepared for the initial meeting. All is a spontaneous reaction to the situation.
The US has nothing to do with this. Abstinence only education has been proven not to work. It is, in fact, allowed…
Shame on you for misrepresenting what I wrote. I didn't say 'only', I said 'at all'. I never even mentioned "protection". You have no comment about what I wrote *except* to call my opinions "ignorant" after attacking me for things I did not say.
I guess you've never took composition in English, eh? Guess you don't understand juxtaposition to highlight a problem? Interesting concept, eh? Did I ever say that the USA has anything to do with this? Can you think outside the traditional framework of a mere essay discussing only Pro/Con? Am I not allowed to compare & contrast to show a broader scope? Btw, did you realize that in South Korea it was a legit crime to get an abortion until their Supreme Court ruled it was unconstitutional and gave them until December 31, 2020 to correct it? Hmmm...
If you have problems with being triggered regarding women's issues, that's your problem. As it stands, I was using the comparisons to make a point about how restrictive and uncompromising the South Korean culture is, and how that makes me understand how difficult it is for their citizens and why so many choose to kill themselves. While criticizing me for that, thank you for actually making my point for me. All the things you want to "shame" me about applies to Koreans.
I have so much to say on this... but I'll just leave it at 3 thoughts:
1. I think about the USA, where Democrats won't even let public schools teach abstinence, and want to allow girls to get abortions without parental authority, because "young kids will be kids". Rap, Hip-Hop culture? If they had to live by 12-13 year old actions + Cancel Culture, we'd never get any music, or talent. Just imagine American youth living under this kind of scrutiny? It's no wonder South Korea has the highest rate of suicide.
2. There's a reason why most advanced industrialized nations have 2 types of laws A) that you cannot disclose the names, faces, & info of juveniles committing crimes, & B) Statute of Limitations.
3. Since he has to wait until October...if things don't go well in the next 3 months, my prediction: We read about the suicide of Ji Soo. Back someone in a corner for something they did 15 years ago, based on what males who supposed have evidence, i.e. molka...how so?? they participated? Is it legal? Assault? The statement said the females were unwilling? It's all very unclear. Now the person can't show their face, can't work and earn a living, even if it's outside of entertainment? Will a Korean employ him? What else is left??? What's the point of life? No forgiveness? And tag on and tag on of uncorroborated "evidence"? Yep.... I see suicide in the near future... That's why... That's why Korea is #1. Good job guys! You got him!! Make him pay.
is it just me or is everyone else in doubt as well as to how they are going to manage three couples and two major…
Well that's 30 minutes to an hour longer than most movies. So, if you write the script like a movie, then break it up into 6 of the main segments of the movie, it's possible to do this and do this well.
The real question is whether a Taiwanese production, such as Results Entertainment, is able to pull off doing it this way, or they end up focusing too much on mundane aspects of 2 secondary couples without generating enough hype for them that the audience cares enough to sit through it instead of just fast forwarding to the OTP. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's SO interesting how ALL these allegations of ALL the bullies stems from Middle School and they are being asked to treat it as if they were ADULTS at the time, and be RESPONSIBLE as ADULTS now.
Why do you think these people go to media forums instead of the proper authorities? Why do they have laws about not disclosing the names of youths involved in criminal cases???
Because we understand that youth are immature. We cannot guarantee ALL children are raised by loving parents, in a loving environment that raises them to be proper citizens. We as ADULTS understand that a child cannot give away something they do not have, namely experience and social etiquette. We give them the SLACK and UNDERSTANDING to make mistakes, correct the behavior, and become PRODUCTIVE, & DECENT human beings.
Bringing up something from middle school AFTER this man has been in the PUBLIC EYE THIS LONG and asking him to answer for it is UNACCEPTABLE, period. It is with all the other female AND male celebrities, regardless of the truth. This is why there is a thing called STATUE OF LIIMITATIONS!! Asking that someone answer AS AN ADULT of 27 for childhood, childish behavior of an 11 or 12 year is ridiculous!
Take Kim Ji Soo as an example here: He has been in the public eye for no less than 9 years! He came into the public eye no less than 6 years from the alleged incidents!
WHERE WERE THEY AT THE START???
This is the part of South Korean society I get disgusted with. NO HUMAN BEING COULD MEET UP TO THE STANDARDS OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC, PERIOD!
NO ONE!!!
And now you fully understand WHY, as an advanced industrialized nation, SOUTH KOREA LEADS ALL OTHERS IN PLASTIC SURGEONS AND SUICIDES PER CAPITA! It's the only way to be PERFECT, and barring NOT being PERFECT, the only other solution is DEATH.
Good job, Koreans. You should be really proud of ridding yourselves of PRODUCTIVE ADULTS who may or MAY NOT have been bullies in middle school. PROBLEM SOLVED.
The accuser said that Park Hye Soo had a boy beat her up to the point she was blooded. I want to know that boy's name, and what the victim is doing to publicly accuse him of assault and when she's going to bring civil charges against him.
The victim attended the private all girl's school Eunkwang Girls' High School along with Park Hye Soo located in Gangnam, Seoul. I suspect that this guy lives in the area, and along with the 20 other students, comes from a well-off family and is a person that all of them are well aware of his identity. Wondering why he's not a party to this situation. Is it only rich celebrities, with their names and faces in the public eye that get called out, not those merely from wealthy families with no celebrities? Wonder why that is...and why the victim would want a man who beats up women on the behest of others to run free.
i can't believe people feel sorry for the cast the MOST. your first thought when you hear about a bullying case…
As her agency said, '...if you have a case, and you have the evidence you say you have, take it to the authorities along with everyone's statement and pursue it through *legal* channels..'
Trying this in the court of public opinion doesn't make her case accurate or a victim. We have a "He said, She Said" matter here with the ONLY facts that **I** can confirm from all of this is that 4 years ago, and now, instead of seeking a legal civil action, and monetary compensation through law and the courts, this particular person directly contacts her agency and asks, "...What are you going to do about this..."
To me the message is clear, give me a big settlement or I'll destroy her career. Just like with all the cases of sexual assault, and guys like Park Yoo Chun, who lost to 1 of the 4 victims in CIVIL COURT and was ordered to pay her $56 million KRW and is now free to act in dramas and be supported, why should this person be any different? Because she's FEMALE? Hmmm... I suspect sexual assault is worse, and as far as I know, there's never been any evidence or statement provided to the authorities. If there are so many corroborating witnesses, and photo evidence, as this person purports to have, then it should be quite easy... and then they can sue for physical assault in civil court and get their payday that way, and Park Hye Soo can be blackballed from entertainment and live off her rich family.
Why can't I believe them when they simply post random stuff on forums while people say, "...why do you support CELEBRITIES first, and those who come from RICH families..."?? Well, I'll start with 1 basic fact:
Park Hye Soo attended Eunkwang Girls' High School. The accuser states the first case happened when she was 16 and Park was 17, and they were classmates. This is a All-Girls, Private, Christian Liberal Arts & Science school located in GANGNAM-GU, SEOUL. The accuser who attended that school isn't some random poor chick. She must also come from a wealthy family. But she never went to her parents, or authorities, there's no record of such a thing. This isn't a public school, and all the students come from well off families quite frankly. So, no, frankly, this situation isn't the standard fare public school bullying case. And with her wealthy family, she should be able to take this to CIVIL court quite easily. And just like Park Hye Soo's agency, I have to wonder why, as an individual, her first action in this regard is to contact the agency and say "...what will you do about this..." and I have to wonder about this.
I also have to wonder about the victims personal statement, "...However, my comment was published in the media, and I was stunned since this is the first time something like this has happened to me. However, since it ended up like this I thought gathering the victims together and publicizing the matter would be the right thing to do..." And through THIS how she managed to get an "interview with the news outlet Sports World"??? What CONNECTIONS does she have to get picked out of everyone, and interviewed on hearsay allegations with NONE of the other VICTIMS participating, only her????
Nepotism in South Korea is an interesting thing, and it cuts both ways. What's going on behind the scenes, no one can pretend to know. Because of that, until she sues Park in CIVIL court and puts up her case, I don't give a care about He Said, She Said. All this stuff cuts both ways. I'm not going to ACCUSE someone WITHOUT actual evidence NOR am I going to SUPPORT someone WITHOUT evidence. As they both cancel each other out, I'm of no need to see Park Hye Soo's financial career flushed down the drain on a story WITHOUT EVIDENCE. PERIOD.
Of course, I'll just leave it at this, since anyone come on here, to read your rant can look at the above *news* articles and decide for themselves whether I'm being factual or not.
Don't worry, I'll just suck up your rant. No need to apologize. I understand now why the 2nd woman just wants to move on but still asks Park Yoo Chun's fans to mind what they say online and whether or not they even realize what in the hell they're talking about at all.
He was acquitted of all charges and his accusers spent jail time for blackmail.
I'm utterly confused to how you come up with the person that sued him for sexual assault was a man. It was the 2nd female accuser who sued him and who he paid $56 million KRW to for civil case. I'm hard pressed to know of any man who sued him. Maybe you could explain it, but I think you're seriously confused, ma'am.

I got the 1st was on impulse from unexpectedly being confronted with Shi De for the 1st time in 5 years.
But, the 2nd, I fully understood why Shu Yi did it. Shi De is being pushy. The guy just pushed his way into Shu Yi's home and NEVER got permission... not ONE time... Not to come in.. Not to come on to him & sexually harass him by saying, "I'll go after you again. I'm not giving up, no matter how angry you are at me..." while grabbing his arm... Not to cook the meal he cooked. Go back and watch it. Tell me 1x when Shu Yi gave Shi Di permission to enter his private home and do ANY of the things he did while he was there. Then I'd politely say, you should reassess Shu Yi's reaction, that came along with a threat to call the cops. If we're being perfectly legal, you can defend yourself from anyone trespassing on your home. Shi De was asking for it even after he was already hit.
And, no, I don't condone violence or his actions... I'm just saying that, within the context of the story, Shu Yi hitting Shi De twice was within the parameters of Shu Yi's personality and the context of the situation.
1) Shi De is CEO of Hua Cing Technology, and the creator of the company's new Alpha Project. Per 1 female employee's statement, at the start of episode 1, Shi De has only arrived from USA 1 week prior to the opening scene at the company, when he meets Shu Yi. Yu Zhen Xuan later states that his mother sent him to handle the M&A between Hua Cing Technology & Cheng Yi Corp on behalf of the Chairman.
2) Shu Yu refers to himself as VP. He has been sent to handle the M&A between Hua Cing Technology & Cheng Yi Corp by Cheng Yi's Board. His dad is CEO of the company and this task is for the Board to see if he is qualified to takeover his dad's spot as CEO of Cheng Yi. At some point Bing Wei comments that the reason they are there, and willing to firing Hua Cing Tech employees is over the new Alpha Project and they need to provide Cheng Yi higher ups details about it and its progress.

We read about the suicide of Ji Soo. Back someone in a corner for something they did 15 years ago, based on what males who supposed have evidence, i.e. molka...how so?? they participated? Is it legal? Assault? The statement said the females were unwilling? It's all very unclear. Now the person can't show their face, can't work and earn a living, even if it's outside of entertainment? Will a Korean employ him? What else is left??? What's the point of life? No forgiveness? And tag on and tag on of uncorroborated "evidence"? Yep.... I see suicide in the near future... That's why... That's why Korea is #1. Good job guys! You got him!! Make him pay.
The real question is whether a Taiwanese production, such as Results Entertainment, is able to pull off doing it this way, or they end up focusing too much on mundane aspects of 2 secondary couples without generating enough hype for them that the audience cares enough to sit through it instead of just fast forwarding to the OTP. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Why do you think these people go to media forums instead of the proper authorities? Why do they have laws about not disclosing the names of youths involved in criminal cases???
Because we understand that youth are immature. We cannot guarantee ALL children are raised by loving parents, in a loving environment that raises them to be proper citizens. We as ADULTS understand that a child cannot give away something they do not have, namely experience and social etiquette. We give them the SLACK and UNDERSTANDING to make mistakes, correct the behavior, and become PRODUCTIVE, & DECENT human beings.
Bringing up something from middle school AFTER this man has been in the PUBLIC EYE THIS LONG and asking him to answer for it is UNACCEPTABLE, period. It is with all the other female AND male celebrities, regardless of the truth. This is why there is a thing called STATUE OF LIIMITATIONS!! Asking that someone answer AS AN ADULT of 27 for childhood, childish behavior of an 11 or 12 year is ridiculous!
Take Kim Ji Soo as an example here:
He has been in the public eye for no less than 9 years!
He came into the public eye no less than 6 years from the alleged incidents!
WHERE WERE THEY AT THE START???
This is the part of South Korean society I get disgusted with. NO HUMAN BEING COULD MEET UP TO THE STANDARDS OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC, PERIOD!
NO ONE!!!
And now you fully understand WHY, as an advanced industrialized nation, SOUTH KOREA LEADS ALL OTHERS IN PLASTIC SURGEONS AND SUICIDES PER CAPITA! It's the only way to be PERFECT, and barring NOT being PERFECT, the only other solution is DEATH.
Good job, Koreans. You should be really proud of ridding yourselves of PRODUCTIVE ADULTS who may or MAY NOT have been bullies in middle school. PROBLEM SOLVED.
....Next....
The victim attended the private all girl's school Eunkwang Girls' High School along with Park Hye Soo located in Gangnam, Seoul. I suspect that this guy lives in the area, and along with the 20 other students, comes from a well-off family and is a person that all of them are well aware of his identity. Wondering why he's not a party to this situation. Is it only rich celebrities, with their names and faces in the public eye that get called out, not those merely from wealthy families with no celebrities? Wonder why that is...and why the victim would want a man who beats up women on the behest of others to run free.
Trying this in the court of public opinion doesn't make her case accurate or a victim. We have a "He said, She Said" matter here with the ONLY facts that **I** can confirm from all of this is that 4 years ago, and now, instead of seeking a legal civil action, and monetary compensation through law and the courts, this particular person directly contacts her agency and asks, "...What are you going to do about this..."
To me the message is clear, give me a big settlement or I'll destroy her career. Just like with all the cases of sexual assault, and guys like Park Yoo Chun, who lost to 1 of the 4 victims in CIVIL COURT and was ordered to pay her $56 million KRW and is now free to act in dramas and be supported, why should this person be any different? Because she's FEMALE? Hmmm... I suspect sexual assault is worse, and as far as I know, there's never been any evidence or statement provided to the authorities. If there are so many corroborating witnesses, and photo evidence, as this person purports to have, then it should be quite easy... and then they can sue for physical assault in civil court and get their payday that way, and Park Hye Soo can be blackballed from entertainment and live off her rich family.
Why can't I believe them when they simply post random stuff on forums while people say, "...why do you support CELEBRITIES first, and those who come from RICH families..."?? Well, I'll start with 1 basic fact:
Park Hye Soo attended Eunkwang Girls' High School. The accuser states the first case happened when she was 16 and Park was 17, and they were classmates. This is a All-Girls, Private, Christian Liberal Arts & Science school located in GANGNAM-GU, SEOUL. The accuser who attended that school isn't some random poor chick. She must also come from a wealthy family. But she never went to her parents, or authorities, there's no record of such a thing. This isn't a public school, and all the students come from well off families quite frankly. So, no, frankly, this situation isn't the standard fare public school bullying case. And with her wealthy family, she should be able to take this to CIVIL court quite easily. And just like Park Hye Soo's agency, I have to wonder why, as an individual, her first action in this regard is to contact the agency and say "...what will you do about this..." and I have to wonder about this.
I also have to wonder about the victims personal statement, "...However, my comment was published in the media, and I was stunned since this is the first time something like this has happened to me. However, since it ended up like this I thought gathering the victims together and publicizing the matter would be the right thing to do..." And through THIS how she managed to get an "interview with the news outlet Sports World"??? What CONNECTIONS does she have to get picked out of everyone, and interviewed on hearsay allegations with NONE of the other VICTIMS participating, only her????
Nepotism in South Korea is an interesting thing, and it cuts both ways. What's going on behind the scenes, no one can pretend to know. Because of that, until she sues Park in CIVIL court and puts up her case, I don't give a care about He Said, She Said. All this stuff cuts both ways. I'm not going to ACCUSE someone WITHOUT actual evidence NOR am I going to SUPPORT someone WITHOUT evidence. As they both cancel each other out, I'm of no need to see Park Hye Soo's financial career flushed down the drain on a story WITHOUT EVIDENCE. PERIOD.
Yes, indeed, he was ordered to pay and *did* pay $56million KRW to his 2nd accuser for her civil case against him for illegal sexual assault.
Since Korean isn't your language let me give you a list of **very** reputable ENGLISH translated NEWS outlets so you can fully understand.

Of course, I'll just leave it at this, since anyone come on here, to read your rant can look at the above *news* articles and decide for themselves whether I'm being factual or not.
Don't worry, I'll just suck up your rant. No need to apologize. I understand now why the 2nd woman just wants to move on but still asks Park Yoo Chun's fans to mind what they say online and whether or not they even realize what in the hell they're talking about at all.
