BJ Pye (real name Kang Da-on), a participant in 'Money Game' and 'The Accused Game 2', is causing major shock after attempting suicide while expressing extreme injustice following the first-instance acquittal of the alleged perpetrator in a sexual harassment lawsuit that has dragged on for nearly two years.

On the 15th, Pye held an internet broadcast titled "Today is the first trial date for the attempted forced molestation case against Pye."

That day, Pye stated, "The first-instance verdict came out today, and they said not guilty. How can it be not guilty? I want to kill that person, and I'll die too. Can't I do anything?" revealing a state of despair.

Later, rapper Kerry Gonne-mye, an acquaintance of Pye, posted on her personal SNS the same day, sharing messenger conversations with Pye. Pye told Kerry Gonne-mye, "Hey, I love you. Please avenge Jo XX for me. I beg you. I really suffered and am a victim. Please avenge me instead."

In response, Kerry Gonne-mye expressed anger, saying, "My friend BJ Pye has been suffering from lawsuits over a sexual harassment case for several years, and today the verdict came out with the perpetrator acquitted. How unjust this is. Leaving these words behind, she committed suicide. There are clear witnesses present at the scene and CCTV evidence, yet why does South Korea's law work like this? A country that forces you to dance with a knife even when you just want to live quietly. How can we resolve this injustice? Is this really a nation?"

As Kerry Gonne-mye stated, it is reported that Pye attempted to take her own life and was subsequently transported to a hospital.

Fortunately, Pye is reportedly recovering in the intensive care unit. On the 16th, Pye's father announced via an internet broadcasting platform, "Da-on took 30 packets of medicine containing 20 sleeping pills each, along with antidepressants, antipsychotics, and sedatives all at once yesterday, and also drank alcohol."

He continued, "It seems she made a bad choice due to the unfavorable court result yesterday. She is currently receiving treatment in the hospital's intensive care unit. She says she is sorry for causing worry. As her father, I will take good care of her from now on," sharing updates on Pye's condition.

Previously, in September 2024, after finishing a group dinner, Pye fell asleep in the passenger seat while being driven by a hired driver to a reserved accommodation while intoxicated. Later, she woke up feeling someone touching her body and claimed, "When I opened my eyes, I was lying on the back seat of the car, and a man named A was touching my chest and other parts of my body."

Feeling Ha Ji-man (수상), Pye checked the CCTV and vehicle black box footage, asserting that A, who received the car keys from the hired driver, molested her in an alley after they left the hotel.

Pye reported A to the police on charges of attempted forced molestation, but it is known that A, a married man, denies the allegations.

The court acknowledged circumstances such as A arriving at the hotel first and then taking over the vehicle for travel, but determined that there was insufficient objective evidence, including black box footage, to confirm what actually happened inside the car.

Consequently, on the 15th, approximately two years after the incident occurred, the first-instance court acquitted A.
