A former tennis player-turned-coach, who has previously appeared in movies and variety shows, has been referred to the prosecution for sharing a video of sexual intercourse with his partner without consent.


According to police on June 15, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency sent a man in his 30s, referred to as Mr. A, to the prosecution without detention at the end of last month on charges of distributing filmed material using cameras or similar devices under the Act on Special Cases Concerning the Punishment, etc. of Sexual Crimes.


Multiple Transmissions Detected... Investigation into Possible Additional Victims

Mr. A is accused of sending a video of sexual intercourse with Ms. B, who was his girlfriend at the time, to Ms. C, a female acquaintance, on several occasions without Ms. B's consent between the middle of 2024 and April last year. Police have also detected the possibility that there may be at least two more victims in addition to Ms. B, and are currently examining related circumstances.


However, the police decided not to refer Mr. A on the charge of illegal filming, citing insufficient evidence. In response, Ms. B has appealed, submitting additional evidence and requesting a supplementary investigation as well as a probe into potential additional offenses.


Recipient of the Video Also Under Investigation... Spouse of a Famous Duet Singer-Turned-YouTuber

The recipient of the video, Ms. C, is also under investigation. Ms. C was referred to the prosecution for receiving, storing, and viewing the filmed material and was subsequently granted suspension of indictment by the prosecution.


Ms. C is known to be the spouse of a famous duet singer-turned-YouTuber and has reportedly maintained a long-standing friendship with Mr. A. It has also been confirmed that, during the exchange of videos and photos, the two discussed the victim's body or requested additional materials featuring Ms. B.



Regarding this, Ms. C's side has acknowledged the fact of receiving the video but maintains that there was no intentional demand nor active request for sharing. Ms. C’s side explained, “Mr. A suddenly sent the video to several acquaintances,” adding, “I was so taken aback at the time that the thought of stopping it did not even occur to me.”
