[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Allegations have been raised that a cram school director sexually harassed a female high school student in Gwangju, prompting the police to launch an investigation.

According to the Gwangju Nambu Police Station on the 12th, a complaint was filed accusing cram school director Mr. A of sexually harassing female high school student Ms. B.

Mr. A is suspected of touching parts of Ms. B's body when she came to the cram school on the 10th to check her exam results and was alone with him in the director's office.

Ms. B reportedly received counseling at the Sunflower Center and visited the police station with her parents.

Mr. A is also known to have posted messages on social media denying the allegations themselves.
