[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] A dental clinic director who sexually harassed a former employee who came to announce her wedding was sentenced to prison.


On the 3rd, the Cheonan Branch of Daejeon District Court sentenced B (55), the director of a dental clinic in Cheonan, to 10 months in prison with a 2-year probation and ordered him to attend 40 hours of sexual violence treatment lectures for forcibly molesting former employee A, who came to deliver a wedding invitation.


Director B tried to kiss and pulled the former employee (dental hygienist) who came to deliver the wedding invitation in his office at his dental clinic in Cheonan at around 1:40 p.m. on November 7, 2019, and touched her buttocks.



He also sexually harassed the victim by saying things like, "Marriage is nothing special. Let's meet once a month and be lovers."


B was also indicted for slapping A's buttocks once with his palm during a company dinner with employees at a karaoke room in Cheonan around August 2018.



The court stated, "The defendant claims that molestation was impossible due to the structure of the office, but the victim gave specific and consistent testimony about the molestation, and there are no irrational or contradictory parts in the testimony itself, so the victim's testimony is deemed credible."
