Open World Entertainment CEO's appeal against his 6-year prison sentence rejected

AKP STAFF



The CEO of Open World Entertainment has seen his original sentence of 6 years in prison upheld after his appeal was rejected by the court on the 21st.

He was�charged mid last year for sexually assaulting his female trainees, and was eventually sentenced to six years in prison. He appealed, but the original sentence of�6 years in jail as well as 40 hours in a sexual assault treatment program have been upheld. His file will also be available as public record for 5 years.

Although he had admitted to his crimes, he and his legal team had appealed asking for a reduction in sentence, saying, "He accepts all the charges and pleads guilty. But the defendant has worked hard for the spread of Hallyu in China, and is a true�entrepreneur�in the domestic entertainment industry."

However, the court was not swayed and turned down the appeal, while firmly stating, "He used his place of power after he signed a contract with the victims and violated their sexual rights and �personal rights, and gave them mental pain that will be hard to heal throughout their entire life."
