BTS Composer Bobby Jung Imprisoned For Unlawfully Filming A Woman Without Consent

Bobby Jung, also known as Jung Dae Wook, a Korean music composer who has worked with BTS and TXT, has been jailed for a year.

New Delhi: Bobby Jung, alias Jung Dae Wook of Autumn Vacation, a South Korean musician who has collaborated with BTS and TXT, has been imprisoned for a year. He was under investigation for reportedly filming a woman while she was nude without her permission. 

According to the Korean new website Allkpop, the court also ordered Bobby to complete 40 hours of sexual violence education on Wednesday. Additionally, the court reportedly imposed a 5-year ban on Bobby working in any facilities that provide services to children, teenagers, or persons with disabilities.

The leading website reports that the Seoul Western District Court stated during the case's final judgement,"Jung filmed victim 'A's body illegally without consent, and the victim is experiencing significant mental shock and humiliation. While the victim's side is requesting severe punishment for Jung's action, Jung did not demonstrate an attitude of reflection. Taking into account that Jung did not distribute this footage to anyone, and that he has no similar offense, Jung is hereby sentenced to 1 year in prison."

In addition, the court decided that there was "insufficient evidence" to convict Jung of assaulting "A".

The Korean music producer Bobby Jung was charged with illegal filming and sexual assault in 2020. After the accuser's family members went public with their accusations, the situation sparked a furor online. Numerous fans had even demanded that his work be banned. 

Meanwhile, Bobby Jung has collaborated on a number of tracks with K-pop idols from the Korean entertainment business, including BTS and TOMORROW x TOGETHER. 'I'm Fine', 'Filter', 'Home', '134340', 'Dream Glow', 'Way Home', 'Roller Coaster', and '20 cm' are a few of his songs.
