Or am i missing something? I repect for him for what he has achieved and was hoping he shares the same views as majority of other people but who knows. :/ Ive liked him since he was a co-mc in "friday night" and regarded him as a decent human being but i could be wrong. But i sincerely hope someone within the industry starts a union like organization to protect themselves. This event should not repeat. | ||

That being said, if that list is true there's a hell of a lot of insanely powerful people on there and I hope they get what they deserve. | ||

http://www.allkpop.com/2011/03/investigators-suspect-that-jang-ja-yeons-letters-were-fabricated while this may be true, I think there's also a possibility that money changed hands for this conclusion to be drawn; after all, some hella important people were named on those letters. | ||

If her story is true, I'm sure it's all too common with the entertainment industry there. | ||

"12 cats butchered by crazy man in Germany" "Girl gang raped by 20 men in China" Then people talk about how messed up that country is. Then when something happens in the US, people just talk about crazy/bad people and don't bring up country. Why did this story need to be about S. Korea? Sexual harassment in the workplace doesn't take place in the states? No actress in America has ever been coerced into sex for a job/role? I'm confused what delusional world you people are living in. Now, about the GIRL, it is a tragedy this happened and that there was no one to help her. I hope the men are punished brutally, but that is too much to hope. | ||

If you actually read the thread, you'd know that plenty of people have said that this isn't a South Korean phenomenon. | ||

REAL FBI NUMBERS Forcible rape, as defined in the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, is the carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will. Attempts or assaults to commit rape by force or threat of force are also included; however, statutory rape (without force) and other sex offenses are excluded. # The rate of forcible rapes in 2009 was estimated at 56.6 per 100,000 female inhabitants, a 3.4 percent decrease when compared with the 2008 estimated rate of 58.6. the UCR severely under reports crimes.. for example rape + murder should be counted as 2 crimes but in the UCR its counted as one and as murder only. Its what they call the dark figure of crime.. using the UCR as a basis of statistics is almost absolute crap. Rape is the #1 under reported crime in the U.S. and im not disagreeing with your RAINN statistics since i dont know about it at all. | ||

You always get some scraps of the big picture from time to time on the news. A model molested here an actress there and so on. I dont think you can get into the entertainment/model industry as a woman without sexual favors. It is the sad truth. | ||

Because corruption in general is a huge issue in korea (huge in the sense that its huge compared to other developed countries). People with money and power in the country have too much leverage that they easily get away with crime. | ||

Source: http://news.sportsseoul.com/read/entertain/924051.htm mmhmmm... EDIT: More Sources: http://www.munhwa.com/news/view.html?no=2011031001070843015002&w=nv According to this, the envelope is where the evidence was found, now the writings on the letter are being analysed and the result will be known by next week. Yes, corruption is everywhere, very likely in korean entertainment ind. However let's wait and before jumping to conclusions pplz. | ||

Forcible rape is not the only type of rape. Coercive rape is rape. Child rape is rape. Non consensual sex of any kind is rape. Sex with people who can't give consent is rape. I also love how you quote something as retarded as "other sex offenses are excluded". Also before you criticize rainn note that they actually had references for all the stats. | ||
