1. [+1,468, -219] If a man had done s*xual things to a female doll, would he have been given the same sentence? Can't believe we've reached an age where men need to demand equal treatment now

2. [+701, -83] I won't be watching any more of her shows

3. [+358, -70] So it's legal if a woman does it, illegal if a man does it

4. [+96, -10] I also don't personally think that this was worthy of a police charge but if a male celebrity had done the same thing on a YouTube show by rubbing up on a Barbie, I know for a fact that the show would've been over then. However, Park Narae has been on other shows since then and on several other programs as well. 

5. [+81, -3] Yeah, I never expected her to be charged with anything, but what viewers are demanding is not a criminal charge but criticism on her mindset in thinking that it was okay to do that on a variety show. She needs to know that there are lines that shouldn't be crossed. I also felt that it was weird that she went back to her hometown during her period of reflection, and I felt bad for her grandparents to have to come out on TV for the sake of their granddaughter over a controversy that I'm sure was embarrassing for them to even talk about. Variety stars like her should just step back but she's so clueless that I'm sure she'll stubbornly stay on TV, and I guess the people who enjoy that type of humor can continue watching her.

6. [+64, -0] She still crossed the line.. and I think it's unfortunate that she continues to go on TV without any reflection

7. [+63, -4] Where are the standards... if a male celebrity did this, he would've been exiled. 

8. [+50, -2] A man would've been exiled over this

9. [+28, -1] It's not even like she stayed in reflection until the police said there was no charge, she's been working all this time still

10. [+28, -1] If a male celebrity had done this, he would've been banned from TV for years and exiled out of society

What a waste of time and resources...

[AstroBaby]

Can these commenters kindly give an of a man who was "exiled" from the industry for inappropriate jokes about women? because I can't seem to think of one...on the contrary there are many who are doing just fine right now 

[starsocks]

sorry, but I'll never be able to see making implicitly sexual jokes with an inanimate objects as "sexual harassment" unless it directly involves an actual human person, it just invalidates real instances of sexual harassment

the whole situation was so ridiculous and it's good to see it wrapping up

focus on catching literal rape enablers like seungri now, thanks

[Aegyo]

Great..they should stop wasting time on sh*t like this and  focus on Seungri. 

[Thigh-high feminist]

Good, it shouldn't have gotten as far as it did and some of those comments are ridiculous. Having said that, that was really not smart of her to do and I hope she got feeling up on Ken out of her system (it wasn't even funny).

This should never have been a police investigation in the first place

[hanadulccet]

it's absurd how it reached the police in the first place. it's just a doll ffs!

and wow, k-netizens really be acting like men who actually committed sexual crimes do not get away with probation or very light sentences in their country.
