[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Yeon-ju] A man in his 30s who lured a female employee drinking with him at a karaoke room to a motel and committed sadistic sexual acts was sentenced to 10 years in prison in the first trial.


The Ulsan District Court's 11th Criminal Division (Presiding Judge Park Joo-young) announced on the 13th that A (39), who was indicted on charges of rape and injury, was sentenced to 10 years in prison.


He was also ordered to complete 80 hours of sexual violence treatment programs and was banned from employment at child and youth-related institutions for 10 years.


The court stated the sentencing reasons, saying, "The defendant committed the crime against victims who, as karaoke helpers, find it difficult to openly disclose the facts and are socially vulnerable, making the crime particularly heinous. Considering the repeated similar offenses, the extremely perverted and sadistic nature of the assault, and the defendant's denial and lack of remorse, severe punishment is inevitable."


A was indicted for assaulting karaoke employee B (51, female) and committing perverted sexual acts at a motel in Dong-gu, Ulsan, on July 11 last year.


It is known that A met B at a karaoke room, drank together, and then offered to buy her a meal.


After moving to a restaurant, A gained B's favor by offering money without any conditions and then lured her to a motel.



Previously, on the early morning of September 17, 2018, A was also found to have taken B (34, female), a karaoke employee who was heavily intoxicated and unable to control her body, to a motel and sexually assaulted her after drinking together at a karaoke room.
