Hongik University has lifted its position as an associate professor of musical actor Nam Kyung-ju, who is accused of sexual assault.

Hongik University announced on the 12th that it has decided to remove Nam Kyung-ju, who was an associate professor of performing arts.

An official told Star News, "We held two personnel committees (in connection with Nam Kyung-ju), and the first personnel committees were held immediately after the incident (in connection with sexual assault)," adding, "The current position has been lifted. The related issue is still ongoing," he said.

Until last year, Nam Kyung-ju served as an associate professor of performing arts and musicals at Hongik University's Department of Performing Arts, but was removed from his position just before the opening of this year. It is known that the class he was in charge of is being conducted by another professor.

Meanwhile, the Seoul Bangbae Police Station sent Nam Kyung-ju to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office without detention last month on charges of adultery by force. He is accused of sexually assaulting a woman in Seoul last year. The victim reportedly left the scene and reported 112.

Nam Kyung-ju strongly denied the charges in a police investigation, but the police sent the case to the prosecution, believing that the charges were admitted. Nam Kyung-ju, who was working alone without his agency, has not made an official statement, and his Instagram account has also been deleted.

As a result, his past history is drawing attention again. Nam Kyung-ju's brother, musical actor Nam Kyung-eup, said at a production presentation for the play "Rainman" in 2010, "My younger brother is actually a troublemaker," adding, "I went to Samcheong University of Education when I was a third grader in high school. I went to the same high school as Gyeongju and even served as the head of the religious department, so I was scolded every day because of my younger brother."

In addition, his license was revoked for drunk driving in 2002 and 2003, and he was reportedly booked without detention by the police in 2004 while driving without a license.

Nam Kyung-ju was also called the 'Musical Godfather' as an actor representing the first generation of Korean musicals, and last year, 'Hidden Love' and 'The Show'! He has continued his activities on several stages, including 'Silla'.
