A professor at Yeungnam University in Gyeongsangbuk-do was raped by a fellow professor, and controversy is growing over the claim that the school is trying to cover it up.



He even revealed his real name on the Blue House National Petition bulletin board and disclosed the facts of the damage.



[Kim Oo/Professor of Yeungnam University: There was such a rape in June 2019, but I was just so shameful and terrible at that time. I just wanted to forget, I just wanted to keep knowing myself. I just want to take it to the grave.]



But it is said that sexual harassment and harassment continued after that.



[Kim Oo/Professor of Yeungnam University: He sincerely apologizes and reflects, so I thought that recurrence or sexual harassment would not happen. Done.



It was these words that came back after accusing my supervisor of the problem.



[Kim Oo/Professor of Yeungnam University: Is there any evidence? (If there is no), be quiet. Let's just go over it. If you don't be quiet, you go out. He said something like this.]



Feeling frustrated, Professor Kim thought that it was not appropriate to teach students in a situation where he was hurt, and asked the in-school gender equality center to separate the professor from the student, but he received it. It is said that it was not ordered.



[Kim Oo/Professor of Yeungnam University: Oh, despite my being a professor, I thought that it wasn't a big deal. Students are also very uncomfortable when they are faced with what I have experienced, when they report to school or go through procedures.]



Professor Kim decided to publicize the case.



He revealed his real name and posted a message on the Blue House National Petition bulletin board and received over 200,000 consents.



[Kim Oo/Professor of Yeungnam University: I think that many of you (now) will cheer you up, and everyone will join us in moving this problem we are facing in a more desirable direction.)]



Yeungnam University said that it has not covered or reduced any facts so far, and that it will conduct a fair and thorough investigation.
