Open World Entertainment CEO officially charged with rape





The CEO of Open World Entertainment has been prosecuted on charges for sexually assaulting his female trainees.


The Women/Children Criminal Investigation Department of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office charged Mr. Jang for rape and violation of child protection laws. According to prosecutors, the CEO had sexually assaulted several female trainees under his agency from 2010 to 2012.


However, the previous accusation of the CEO forcing male idols to participate in the sexual assault have been dropped as the prosecutor’s office was not granted the authority to indict.


A representative from the prosecutor’s office revealed that as the female trainees did not try to escape the situation nor were they prevented from moving by force or threats, the case involving the male idols did not fall under rape. Instead, it would fall under the use of authority and power to force others into sexual relations. However, cases that fall under such a category must be reported within one year of the occurrence. With the time frame required having passed, the prosecutors were not given the authority to indict the CEO on the charge of forcing male idols to sexually assault the trainees.
