UPDATE: Idol-turned-actress Nana has expressed her outrage over a shocking court ruling regarding the sexual assault of a 9-year-old girl. On December 6, 2023, the former member of the popular group After School took to social media to share her anger after learning that a man in his 60s was sentenced to only 8 years in prison for his crime, with the judge denying electronic monitoring.
Nana posted a screenshot of the newspaper article detailing the sentencing, stating, “I’m angry. Eight years? Is this for real? Eight years?” Her passionate response has resonated with many, leading to a wave of support from netizens. Comments flooded in, with one user noting, “It’s rare to see someone raise their voice for a cause that’s not about themselves,” while another echoed, “I’m genuinely furious.”
This incident is particularly poignant given Nana’s recent experiences. Earlier, she bravely confronted a 30-year-old man who broke into her home, subduing him and protecting her mother during the terrifying encounter. Despite being hailed for her heroism, Nana faced ridicule from some who questioned her actions, leading to widespread public backlash against the dismissive attitudes toward victims.
The recent sentencing has reignited conversations about justice for victims of sexual assault, especially minors. Nana’s emotional engagement highlights a broader societal issue and reflects her empathy not only for her own traumatic experience but also for the suffering of others.
Nana is set to appear in the upcoming Genie TV original series Climax next year, but her current focus remains on advocating for justice and raising awareness about the severity of such crimes. As discussions continue, many are calling for stronger sentences and more protective measures for vulnerable individuals.
