JYP Entertainment dismissed claims that miss A's Suzy had been sexually harassed by the MC at a recent water gun event held as part of her promotions for Sprite.


Netizens pointed out that the MC had appeared to discreetly touch Suzy several times during the event, causing her discomfort and amounting to sexual harassment.


However, JYP said the claims were blown out of proportion. "The agency has determined that it wasn't anything to be worried about," they said. "If there is anything we need to say after a deeper investigation, we will provide a statement at that time."


A representative who was at the scene corroborated this statement. "His hand just accidentally brushed against her in the process of leading her to the front," he said.


Check out a fan-taken video of the event below. What do you think?
