,
, ‘Judge Hong Da-sun of the Seoul Western District Court’s Criminal Division 4 sentenced former idol group member Choi Mo (28) to 1 year and 6 months in prison on charges of using a camera and filming without permission under the Sexual Violence Punishment Act and ordered him to be detained, citing a risk of flight.’,
,
, ‘In addition, he ordered Choi to complete a 40-hour sexual violence treatment program and imposed a three-year employment restriction on child and adolescent-related institutions as well as disability-related institutions.’,
,
, ‘Judge Hong pointed out, “Illegal filming of the victim’s naked body is content that can cause extreme sexual embarrassment, and such illegal filming can cause irreparable harm if disseminated, seriously infringing on the sexual self-determination of each victim.”‘,
,
, ‘The court considered the fact that Choi made a commitment for two victims, but the victims expressed their refusal and petitioned for strict punishment, stating, “However, considering the fact that the footage has not been disseminated, and that there is no prior conviction for similar offenses, the court took a comprehensive view of the circumstances.”‘,
,
, ‘Choi is accused of filming sexual scenes and major body parts of victim A, with whom he was in a relationship from July 2022 to May last year, a total of 18 times in photos and videos.’,
