[Asia Economy Reporter Baek Kyunghwan] Yoon Gyeol, a member of the band Jannabi, is reportedly under police investigation for allegations of assaulting a woman.


According to the police on the 24th, the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul received a report on the early morning of the 21st that Yoon assaulted a woman at a bar in Apgujeong-dong, Gangnam-gu, and is currently investigating him.


At the time, Yoon, who was intoxicated, reportedly spoke to a woman at the drinking party, and when she did not respond, he struck the back of her head. The police have obtained a statement from the victim indicating that she was hit on the head multiple times.



Meanwhile, Jannabi's agency, Peponi Music, stated on social media, "Yoon Gyeol's contract with Jannabi had already expired before his service as a social service agent, so the contract has been terminated."
