A woman who committed malicious stalking crimes against actor Ko Se-won and indiscriminately spread false information online has been sentenced to a prison term by the court.

According to TenAsia on the 28th, Anyang Branch of Suwon District Court recently sentenced A to two years in prison for violating the Act on the Punishment of Stalking Crimes and other charges such as defamation. The court also ordered A to complete a 40-hour stalking treatment program.

It was revealed that A's persistent harassment directed at Ko Se-won and those around him had gone beyond all limits. During the trial, it was confirmed that A directly contacted Ko Se-won a staggering 54 times. Even after breaking up with Ko Se-won, A repeatedly attempted to make contact dozens of times and continued to pursue him, even contacting Ko's mother eight times, causing significant mental distress.

Furthermore, A posted false content online on ten separate occasions claiming that she had been sexually assaulted by Ko Se-won, became pregnant, suffered a miscarriage, and was then callously abandoned, severely damaging Ko Se-won's reputation.

However, the court found that A's claims regarding pregnancy, miscarriage, and forced sexual relations were entirely inconsistent with objective facts. This conclusion was reached after thoroughly reviewing all objective evidence obtained during the trial, including obstetrics and gynecology medical records, ultrasound examination results, official responses to fact inquiries, expert opinions from the Korean Medical Association, and relevant audio recordings.

Previously, in 2021, A first brought these allegations into public discourse by posting a sensational article on online communities such as 'ONLINE' titled 'I was abandoned after becoming pregnant by K, known as the 'Prince of Housewives,' and suffered a miscarriage.'

At that time, A unilaterally claimed, 'He sent me a message saying he would sue me for extortion if I didn't delete his nude photos. He said, "Wait," and then blocked all my contact.' Even after this, A's indiscriminate contacts targeting Ko Se-won and malicious online posts did not stop.

Meanwhile, Ko Se-won's side plans to pursue civil legal liability against A separately from the outcome of this criminal trial. In response to the massive mental and material damages caused by repeated stalking crimes and the spread of malicious false information, they intend to initiate follow-up legal procedures, including a strong lawsuit for substantial compensation.
