[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Lim Juhyung] Japanese female martial artist Yamazaki Momoko revealed that she was indiscriminately assaulted by a drunken man.


Yamazaki recently confessed on her social network service (SNS) account that she was attacked by a middle-aged man under the influence of alcohol.


She explained, "While I was going to a convenience store, a middle-aged man suddenly kicked my stomach," and "then grabbed my head and swung a beer bottle."


She added, "The most shocking thing was that there was someone just filming a video in that situation."


Later, when a netizen asked, "You are a martial artist, were you assaulted unilaterally?" Yamazaki explained, "Because I am a martial artist, I had no intention of fighting back at all," and "but I thought I could never forgive it, so I held him down myself until the police arrived. The perpetrator has also been arrested."



It is known that Yamazaki suffered retinal damage from the assault and is scheduled to undergo additional examinations at the hospital.
