March 7, 2019 is the 10th anniversary of Jang Ja Yeon's death. In 2009, the actress put an end to her life after leaving a document revealing the identity of powerful figures getting involved in prostitution. Jang Ja Yeon participated in the drama "Boys Over Flowers" (2009, KBS 2TV) and died at her home in Seongnam Ward, Bundang District, Gyeonggi Province.

​

In Jang Ja Yeon's letter, she mentioned sexual bribery and drinking with 31 people more than 100 times, including those from major credit finance businesses, entertainment companies or representatives of organs, etc. However, only the director and manager of the former agency of Jang Ja Yeon were tried and more than 10 influential people related to this incident were absolved from the guilt but still leave a lot of doubt.

​

In June 2018, two months before the prosecution deadline came, people sent a petition to Blue House calling for the clarification of Jang Ja Yeon's death. After receiving more than 200,000 approvals, the secretary of Blue House's Anti-Corruption Commission, Park Hyung Chul responded, "Whether or not the term of prosecution ends, I hope that the Investigation and Prosecution Committee of the Ministry of Justice will do their best to clarify the suspicion of loose investigation in the past." Next, the Prosecutor Committee filed a petition for re-investigation. Thus, at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, the case is re-invested 9 years after the investigation was concluded.

​

Then, the new stories about Jang Ja Yeon's incident were posted on many news programs, including PD Notebook; however, all the mentioned people had denied, "Those are unfounded news."

​

On March 5, junior Yoon Ji Oh, who witnessed the scene of Jang Ja Yeon being sexually harassed, first showed up to the public to tell the truth. Yoon Ji Oh was the junior who attended the same party that Jang Ja Yeon was harassed in 2009. After that, she received 13 investigations as a witness.

​

Yoon Ji Oh told the reason why she moved to Canada, "After I testified, I no longer had a normal life. I had to move my home many times and could not cast anymore. I even heard a director said my name was removed from the casting list because of testifying for the incident of Jang Ja Yeon."

​

She continued to express her sincere thoughts about the state of the cursory investigation at that time and the pressure of being the witness, "The investigations of Jang Ja Yeon case all took place from 10 pm to the next morning. After finishing the investigation, the police took me home and stayed close to me. I was just 21 years old, but I felt that the investigation was very superficial."

​

Moreover, Yoon Ji Oh also affirmed, "I once saw that list before it was destroyed. There are also names of famous people in the press. She put them in writing, listed, and put her seal on in order to be able to give it to the management company. That's what was created to fight lawfully and to live. "

​

Yoon Ji Oh confided, "I was living like a second victim. I hope that those who were harmed like me can live very strongly in the outside world. It's the one who did harms that should live in the awareness of their sin, but on the contrary, those who are harmed are living with responsibility and guilt. This reality leaves me with only sighs. Now I can take the courage to come out like this thanks to the hope of being able to change that reality even a little bit."

​

Yoon Ji Oh's courageous revelation once again made the public turn their attention to the Jang Ja Yeon's incident. Everyone is looking forward to whether the truth will be revealed in detail after facing a new situation on the 10th anniversary of Jang Ja Yeon's death.

That's so horrible. I hope her and her family will stay safe and that these trashes will all be exposed.

 

SK failed to give Jang Jayeon the care and justice she deserved 10 years ago but I sincerely hope this time something big hits them all that they won't have any other choice but exposing names.

Thinking about what Jang Jayeon suffered through and the injustice she faced always makes me feel so angry and sad. Kudos to Yoon Jioh for testifying despite the repercussions. With the re investigations, I am hoping justice will finally prevail since the President is trying to crack down on corruption.

In Korea it seems it’s not just the big people who get privileges, crimes against children and women are punished very lightly if at all.

 

Such as the nayoung case, the Gwangju Inhwa school case or the Miryang gang rape. It’s kinda hopeless but we, the people, have to keep fighting for their rights.
