"Too Old to Be Upset?"... Absurd Excuse by Doctor Who Sexually Harassed an 80s Patient

Asked the patient "Are you okay"... "Isn't it meant as an apology?"

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Seohyun] It was recently revealed that an elderly woman in her 80s was sexually harassed by an ophthalmologist, who explained by saying, "I thought she wouldn't feel bad because of her age."

According to a KBS report on the 29th, Ms. A (in her 80s) was forcibly molested by an ophthalmologist Mr. B in Hanam-si, Gyeonggi Province last March. At the time, Mr. B said, "Since she is a regular customer, I will provide a service," and massaged her shoulders, then suddenly inserted his hand under her armpit and grabbed her body parts. As a result, Ms. A was shocked and reportedly took sleeping pills because she could not sleep.

Ms. A revealed the incident to her family two months after it happened. When the family visited the clinic to complain, Mr. B admitted, "I remember. I definitely did that," but explained, "I didn't intend to molest her, but I thought she wouldn't feel bad because of her age."

Mr. B also claimed to have apologized through the press. He said, "Anyway, it happened differently from my intention," and mentioned, "I asked, 'Are you okay?'" He then rhetorically asked, "Isn't that an apology?"

Ms. A's family considered filing a police complaint but are reportedly postponing the decision, fearing that the investigation process might worsen Ms. A's health.
