[단독] Short track dream tree trampled… Juvenile women’s national team accused masseuse of sexual violence

A short-track youth national athlete sued a male masseuse in his 50s, who runs a massage parlor for athletes, on charges of similar rape. The athlete, a female middle school student, filed a complaint to the police with the intention that the masseuse touched important parts of the body several times, with the intention of committing abuse.

According to the Gyeonggi-do Goyang Police Station on the 23rd, A (15), a member of the ice floe at a middle school in Gyeonggi-do, sued the masseuse B to the police in the middle of last month on charges of similar rape. Yang A is a Korean short track prospect who won a medal at the National Winter Games held in February last year.

Ms. A started attending Mr. B’s business in August last year. Both sides argued that Mr. B has been harassing Mr. A since October last year, saying, “When I menstruate, the chest is lumped,” rubbing A’s chest and touching important areas. It is reported that Mr. B did a full-body massage after removing all of Ms. A’s clothes without prior consultation, and did not inform Ms. A’s parents of this fact.

After the massage, Mr. B drove Ms. A home in his car and said, “Don’t talk to your mother.” After the abuse that lasted for several months, Ms. A eventually informed the family about this and immediately reported it to the police.

Mr. B denies the allegations. He said, “As ice skaters use a lot of lower body muscles, some physical contact is inevitable during the massage process, but there is no fact that Ms. A was sexually harassed.” I think the truth will be revealed in the police investigation,” he said.

The police are investigating Mr. B based on Mr. A’s statement. A police official said, “The victim’s statement has been secured,” and said, “We plan to investigate the suspect within this week and call the victim to investigate.”
