A famous chef who appeared on television is being sued for failing to pay a settlement. According to an exclusive report by TV Chosun on the afternoon of the 5th, a woman walking down the street was injured when a large glass window from a restaurant suddenly collapsed on her, resulting in a four-week medical prognosis for her injuries.
The restaurant, operated by the well-known chef whose face is familiar from TV, has led to a police investigation after he did not pay the settlement amount. The incident occurred when the woman, who was using an umbrella, was suddenly struck by something falling from the right side, causing her to fall over. A man in white clothing urgently ran out to help the woman and guided her to an ambulance. The restaurant’s glass window had unexpectedly fallen, hitting her.
The woman in her 40s suffered bruises on her legs and face, leading to a four-week medical prognosis. The restaurant, managed by the famous chef, is located near a pedestrian path and crosswalk frequented by many people during the day.
It has been reported that the glass pane was not properly secured, leading to the accident. The chef is being investigated for negligence resulting in injury and has been questioned twice by the police. The inability to reach a settlement regarding medical expenses has led to a lawsuit.
The chef’s lawyer stated, “We asked the plaintiff’s side to provide a minimum basis for the amount they are requesting in damages.” On the other hand, the plaintiff’s attorney mentioned, “The request for individual medical expenses seemed like submitting a claim to a supervisor.” The settlement amount requested by the plaintiff was 3.8 million won.
Following the news, netizens are speculating about the restaurant and the chef involved.
