Though the victim’s identity was concealed on the show, social media users speculated it was Gaeun from MADEIN based on background footage. Gaeun, 19, is part of the South Korean girl group under 143 Entertainment.

In an audio statement aired during the segment, the idol detailed her harrowing experience. “I told him I wanted to leave the group,” she recounted. “He asked me to grant his wish in return—he wanted me to be his one-day girlfriend.” She described being forcibly kissed, groped, and touched despite her repeated refusals. “I said no, but he kept doing this for two hours,” she stated. She initially thought the meeting would be a casual outing but found herself trapped when the CEO locked the office door.
