A said, "The detailed address was deleted, only the neighborhood remains, so I can only guess that the person lives near the store. I was so angry that I called customer service, but they said customer information is personal information and cannot be disclosed," and appealed, "It is deplorable that I have to endure such unreasonable emotional consumption while running a small business." She continued, "I want to punish those who sexually harass lightly," and asked for advice, "I am curious if there is a way to sue and punish this customer." It is known that the comments on the review have since been deleted.

Netizens who read the story responded with comments such as, "I can't believe there are still people who do such sexual harassment," "Reviews can be seen by children, so this crossed the line," "There are too many strange people in the world," "Sue them for 통maeum," and "Seeing someone say such things so openly, they must be out of their mind."

Meanwhile, according to Article 13 of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (Obscene Acts Using Communication Media), a person who, for the purpose of arousing or satisfying their own or another person's sexual desire, transmits words, sounds, writings, pictures, videos, or objects that cause sexual shame or disgust to another person via telephone, mail, computer, or other communication media can be punished by imprisonment of up to two years or a fine of up to 20 million won.
