Actor O Yeong-su of Squid Game fame has been indicted without detention on indecent assault charges by the Seongnam Branch of the Suwon District Prosecutor’s Office on November 25. A complaint against the actor alleged that he inappropriately touched a woman in 2017.
The case was closed earlier this year but reopened after the victim appealed.
Yeung-su denied the allegations against him when questioned by authorities, according to the South Korea-based Yonhap news agency.
The actor – who won a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor for his role in “Squid Game” – insists that he just held his alleged victim’s hand.
He said he had apologised to the woman, but added that it wasn’t an admission of guilt.
“I just held her hand to guide the way around the lake,” he told Korean news broadcaster JTBC. “I apologised because [she] said she wouldn’t make a fuss about it but it doesn’t mean that I admit the charges.”
