JTBC's Press Screen Quotation
A woman claims to have suffered similar incidents in the past amid controversy over the alleged assault of a fan who asked singer Jessie to take a photo.
According to JTBC reports, A, who said he was a victim of an assault with Jesse's group at a club in Itaewon, Seoul in 2013, dropped the complaint at the time.
A, a Korean-American, came to Korea in 2010 and visited a club located in Itaewon ahead of his trip to the U.S. in May 2013, and got into a dispute with Jesse and his party.
Mr. A faced Jesse and three of his friends here and claimed to have been assaulted randomly for no apparent reason. Mr. A said, "While assaulting in the bathroom, Jesse and his party said they would forgive him if he knelt down and said sorry," adding, "I don't know why they hit me." "If there were no CCTV, Jesse would have been caught as 'not involved at all' as he was then," he claimed.
At the same time, A said, "It was impressive because the attitudes toward the two past and present assault cases were similar." "At the time, (Jessie) did not drop the complaint because she was not guilty, but she had reserved a plane ticket to go to the United States for reasons such as work, and if she goes to the United States, it will be difficult to continue the complaint, so she dropped it for the future," he said.
Regarding the recent assault on Jesse and his party, he said, "Jessie said that the perpetrator is not in Korea, but it was the same in the past." "(The perpetrator) is Chinese? It's funny," he criticized.
Meanwhile, Jesse attended the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul on the 16th and was investigated in connection with the assault case.
Jesse told reporters in front of the police station, "I hope I find the person who hit me quickly, and I'll say it as it is."
