NCT's TAEIL to attend first hearing on charges of special quasi-rape today (18th)

TAEIL, who left the group "NCT," is accused of special attempted rape and the first hearing will be held today (18th).
Today, on the 18th, the 26th Criminal Division of the Seoul Central District Court will hear the punishment for sexual assault crimes.
The first hearing of TAEIL, who is suspected of violating the Special Act on Sexual Abuse (special quasi-rape/indecent assault without consent), will be held. TAEIL is accused of sexually assaulting a drunk woman together with an acquaintance in June last year.
In the case of special quasi-rape, it is considered to be the case when a weapon is possessed or when two or more people commit adultery together with a person who is incapable of resisting, such as being insane. This is punishable by imprisonment for seven years or more or life imprisonment.
Fans were shocked when TAEIL was investigated for a special rape charge. Before TAEIL's charges were revealed, SM Entertainment, which was the management office, was quickly
SM Entertainment announced, "We would like to inform you that the exclusive contract between our company and TAEIL has been terminated as of October 15, 2024. TAEIL is currently being prosecuted in a criminal case.
"Not only is this a reason to terminate the exclusive contract, but we can no longer trust him as an artist, so we have agreed with him to terminate the exclusive contract."
After that, TAEIL was sent to the Seoul Central District Court on charges of special quasi-rape. However, during the process of terminating his exclusive contract and leaving the group, TAEIL showed no signs of remorse and continued to perform live broadcasts, drawing criticism.
As the first hearing on TAEIL's special attempted rape charges is being held, attention is being focused on his future punishment.
