The wife of Kim Jun-won, a member of the band Glen Check, revealed that she had been subjected to sexual harassment by an official at her husband's agency.

On the 3rd, Yoo Seung-eun, Kim Jun-won's wife, posted a lengthy statement on her personal account, saying, "I would like to speak about one of the several reasons why Glen Check has been unable to carry out normal activities for over the past year — an incident I personally experienced."

Yoo stated, "For approximately the past year, we have raised various issues with the company, including sexual harassment," adding, "One of these was a request for an apology regarding two instances of sexually harassing remarks made by the head of EMA."

She continued, "At the time, some current and former employees were also aware of this matter, and I had been waiting in trust after being told that they would ensure an apology was received. Subsequently, along with several unresolved issues, I requested an apology via a certified letter," noting, "For over three years, I have supported Glen Check without compensation on various tasks such as visual directing, design, slogans, and merchandise production, while also collaborating directly with company employees."

Yoo said, "The company's response was shocking," explaining, "I was excluded from my work duties, and the written document regarding the sexual harassment issue included screenshots of my bikini photos, selfies, and even sexual comments left by unknown accounts." She added, "It felt as though the implication was that because I am someone who normally exposes my body, I should have to tolerate such remarks."

She further explained, "I was deeply shocked and began treatment at a psychiatric clinic. To this day, I am still going through a difficult time with the help of medication."

Yoo also stated, "I do not want to bring anyone down. I simply wish for them to acknowledge what is wrong and offer a human apology where an apology is due," revealing her reason for making the disclosure.

Meanwhile, Glen Check is an electronic band that debuted in 2011 with the mini-album "Disco Elevator."
