Amid continuing allegations and controversy surrounding comedian Park Na-rae, opinions have been raised that claims of so-called "inappropriate conduct in a vehicle" should be withheld from judgment because there is no objective evidence.
Recently, the YouTube channel 'Yeonye Dwitongryeong' compiled suspicions related to Park Na-rae item by item and conducted a fact check. The channel, while presupposing the position that "there is some wrongdoing and responsibility should be taken" regarding injection aunt, (obstetrics and gynecology) proxy prescriptions, and delayed wage payments, drew a line saying that there are currently no confirmed facts about the special injury suspicions and claims of inappropriate conduct in the back seat of a vehicle.
The channel pointed out, "Many people already accept it as an established fact, but the special injury and the inappropriate conduct in the back seat of the vehicle are only the former manager's one-sided claims," and said, "No objective evidence or data to prove this has been released so far." It added, "Given the methods and flow of the disclosures so far, it is appropriate to withhold judgment until clear evidence emerges."
Earlier, the controversy intensified after remarks by a practicing lawyer became known. Attorney Lee Don-ho of Nova Law Office explained on his YouTube channel, "If sexual activity occurred in the back seat of a vehicle in which a manager was also riding, the vehicle could be considered a workplace space, and it could become an issue of workplace harassment or sexual harassment." This presupposes "if the alleged act is true."
The lawyer analyzed, "Legal evaluation can vary depending on the level of physical contact," and "If it is not recognized as workplace harassment, a complaint to the labor office could be dismissed, and in that case it could have led to civil compensation lawsuits." He added, "From the former managers' perspective, it is important to have a finding that the act itself occurred, and from Park Na-rae's perspective, a finding that the act did not occur would be decisive."
He especially noted, "Park Na-rae's profession depends on her image," and said, "If the 19+ act is legally recognized and leads to a ruling ordering payment of compensation, returning to the entertainment industry itself could become difficult. The longer the controversy drags on, the greater the damage."
Meanwhile, Park Na-rae's former managers filed a complaint with the Seoul Regional Office of Employment and Labor's Gangnam branch on the 18th of last month alleging workplace harassment. The complaint reportedly included claims that "in the confined space of the vehicle they were forced to perceive unwanted situations visually and audibly," and also contained allegations that during a specific act the driver seat was repeatedly kicked, creating a traffic accident risk.
With suspicions, rebuttals, and legal interpretations intricately intertwined, voices urging caution against premature conclusions and spread of information until the facts are clearly established are gaining strength.<
