A recent video featuring miss A’s Suzy has been causing an uproar among netizens after it was shown that the singer seemed to have been sexually harassed at a promotional activity for Sprite, a beverage product which Suzy currently endorses.
Netizens pointed out that the MC appeared to be discreetly touching Suzy multiple times at the said event, which lead to the signer expressing her discomfort over the gestures.
However, JYP responded that the accusations were simply blown out of proportion. “The agency has determined that there wasn’t anything to be worried about… If there’s anything we need to say after a deeper investigation, we will provide a statement at that time.”
A representative who was at the event commented, "His hand just accidentally brushed against her in the process of leading her to the front.”
To assure fans even more, JYP Entertainment released another statement after doing some careful investigation on the matter. Once again, JYP Entertainment assured fans that there’s nothing to be worried about. The organizers for the Sprite event said, "Because it was a high stage, the MC accidentally touched Suzy while helping her up. Suzy's side also confirmed this; it was definitely not molestation."
JYP Entertainment also stated, "The relevant video was taken from below, so it could look that way, but if you see the original, the person appearing as the MC was leading the way, and slightly touched her. There are people saying Suzy was in a bad mood during the event, but of course, this is completely false."
