[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Bong-ju] A third-year male high school student in Daejeon has raised allegations that he was sexually harassed by a representative of a company in Nonsan, Chungnam, where he went for on-site training.

According to the Nonsan Police Station in Chungnam on the 16th, a representative of a high school in Daejeon reported this matter to the Police Agency's School Violence Reporting Center the day before.

According to the police and the school, on the 14th, the male student from the school posted on social networking services (SNS) that he was "sexually harassed and bullied by a company representative during on-site training."

He said, "A friend who also did on-site training at the same place experienced a similar incident. I am currently afraid of retaliation and trembling with anxiety symptoms."
