JYJ’s Yoochun under investigation for sexual assault, his side denies

Yoochun of JYJ is currently under investigation by the police on charges of sexual assault.

Park Yoochun was accused of sexual assault on June 10. The woman accusing him is 24-year-old Ms. Lee, an employee at an entertainment establishment/liquor bar. Ms. Lee’s boyfriend personally submitted the charges to the police in her stead that day. Ms. Lee claims that Park Yoochun came to the bar on the night of June 3 as a customer and that he sexually assaulted her in a restroom inside the establishment. As evidence, Ms. Lee has submitted the underwear and clothes she was wearing that day to the police. The police have obtained the CCTV recordings that capture Park Yoochun’s movements in regards to the incident and after examining the evidence, they plan to summon him for questioning.

Yoochun’s side is stating that her claim is about extorting money out of him, and the police already have an active investigation into the case.

In an official statement, C-JeS Entertainment asserts that it will be revealed through police investigation that the woman’s claims are false. “We will not compromise to malicious blackmail out to ruin a celebrity,” states the agency and adds, “Park Yoochun will diligently submit to the police investigation so that the truth can be revealed.”

Obviously the main issue here is the sexual assault allegation, but it’s already being looked at unfavorably because he’s visiting “adult entertainment” bars while in the military.

Anyway, there’s no real analysis to be done here because we don’t yet know anything about the case, but all I would say is not to rush to judgment one way or another. Regardless, I know there’s going to be a lot of assumptions being made and that this mess is getting started, but until facts start to leak out, try to stay above the fray.
