It belatedly came to light that a man in his 20s, who was wearing an electronic ankle monitor due to a prior sex crime conviction while working as a Disco Pang Pang DJ, committed a sex crime against a teenage female student. The first trial court sentenced the man to 10 years in prison, but the defendant has appealed the ruling.
On the broadcast on the 9th, JTBC "Incident Chief" relayed a tip from a person surnamed A, who said a high school daughter was victimized by a sex crime by a person surnamed Park working as a Disco Pang Pang DJ and another teenage male.
The incident reportedly occurred in Apr. 2025. The victim student is said to have met Park, who was working as a DJ, after visiting Disco Pang Pang with friends. Park then lured the victim to his home, saying he was keeping the victim's belongings, and was found to have committed the crime with a teenage accomplice.
At the time, Park was reportedly wearing an electronic ankle monitor due to a prior sex crime conviction. The victim reportedly could not tell family members about the harm for about four months after the incident. A said the daughter's changed condition seemed unusual, and after talking, learned of the harm and reported it to police.
When A reported it, Park was already in custody on another sex crime charge. Park is known to have a record of being sentenced, as a minor, to a maximum of 7 years and a minimum of 5 years in prison for a sex crime. After release, Park was under a 10-year electronic ankle monitor attachment order.
According to JTBC, the first trial judgment recorded Park's Korea sex offender risk assessment score as 17. That is the same score as child sex offender Cho Doo-soon. The psychopathy assessment score was 33, reportedly higher than Cho Doo-soon's 29.
A took issue with the fact that a person with a prior sex crime conviction wearing an electronic ankle monitor could work at a venue primarily used by youths. On the broadcast, A said it was incomprehensible that a sex offender worked at a facility frequented by youths and appealed for institutional improvements.
Through the broadcast, the business said Park was not a regular employee, had worked for a few days in a part-time capacity before quitting, and that it was not aware of the incident.
