[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Juhyung] BJ Ttaengcho, who threatened and sexually harassed a woman with intellectual disabilities by forcing her to undress after inviting her to appear on an internet broadcast with the promise of giving her money, has been arrested by the police.

The Gyeonggi Southern Provincial Police Agency announced on the 6th that they arrested A (26), who is active under the name BJ Ttaengcho and is suspected of forcibly sexually assaulting a disabled person, in Bucheon, Gyeonggi Province.

A is suspected of forcibly sexually assaulting woman B, who has an intellectual disability, after inviting her during a recent internet broadcast.

When suspicions about A’s charges were raised on the used car sales site 'Bobaedream,' the police launched an internal investigation, identified A’s identity and whereabouts, and made an emergency arrest.

The police plan to conduct a strict investigation into A’s charges of forcible sexual assault, any additional crimes, and possible accomplices after accurately determining the details of the incident.

Earlier, on the 5th, a post titled "BJ Ttaengcho broadcasting with a level 3 intellectually disabled person" was uploaded on the internet community. The author claimed that the BJ active on the video streaming site 'AfreecaTV' used B to generate income on various broadcasting platforms.

The post stated, "He takes a person with no cognitive ability at all, buys her a bowl of Jjajangmyeon all day, receives star balloons (paid items) on his broadcast, and makes B do the reactions," adding, "B dances all day while Ttaengcho just sits and says a few words."

It also said, "When viewers asked to buy food because B was hungry, he never bought it until he received donations himself," and "He took her to other broadcasts and made her do 'beotbang' (broadcasts where one undresses)."

The author emphasized, "Even now, this BJ is brazen and mocks viewers who criticize him for using an intellectually disabled person to make money," and "This is to publicize the atrocious acts of a malicious BJ who exploits intellectual disabilities for profit."
