Police launch investigation into a CEO of an entertainment company who forced female trainees to send their pictures in underwear

Police launched an investigation into a CEO of an entertainment label who forced female trainees to send their pictures in underwear every week.

According to an exclusive media report on August 22nd KST, the Incheon police department is currently investigating a complaint that was filed back in June. The complaint stated a CEO of an entertainment label, 'A', has collected underwear 'body check' pictures from girl group trainees every Tuesday from April to June. The said pictures were taken by trainees from the front, back, and side per his demand.

The police raided A's office last month and are currently forensically analyzing his phone and computers.

'A' claims he took consent from both international and Korean trainees and he did not have sexual intentions. He continues to claim that it was one of the methods to help them debut faster.

Why haven't they released the name of what this label is? Maybe to protect the female trainees?

Either to protect the trainees or, if the CEO hasn't yet been officially charged/convicted, maybe to protect them?

Perhaps. I guess they wouldn't want to ruin the good name of someone, but the accusations, and his excuse are not looking too good.

Absolutely not good for him

But in my country at least, technically, until charges have been laid (or in some cases convictions), names cant be revealed to public and the media/people can get in HUGE trouble for releasing the names of accused people. A famous radio talk show guy has been to prison twice for doing that.
