Park Si Hoo’s alleged victim was carried into his residence, his defense appears screwed

ParkSiHooHi

Park Si Hoo‘s sexual assault case has brought out the worst in both K-netizens and I-netizens so far, but the facts remained relatively unclear until a recent revelation showed that the alleged victim of the sexual assault was carried into Park Si Hoo’s residence by an assumed friend of his.

After the initial findings, the police were able to obtain CCTV footage of Park Si Hoo, trainee ‘A’, and Park Si Hoo’s hoobae named as individual ‘B’. According to the police, the CCTV footage shows the trio getting out of a car and getting into an elevator at Park Si Hoo’s residence. The woman ‘A’ is carried by ‘B’ on his back, who had also driven the car on the way to Park Si Hoo’s house.

Given this new potentially damning information against Park Si Hoo AND his supposed accomplice, netizens now seem to be turning the corner on this case a bit. Unfortunately, they seem to be more disappointed/surprised by the turn of events than disgusted with him or sympathetic towards the alleged victim.

Sadly enough, that’s not even surprising to me, as netizens had apparently been biding their time by finding out the name of the alleged victim and were harassing a random innocent woman who was unfortunate enough to have shared the same name.

As the situation got bigger, a female college student has been getting all her personal information exposed and even experiencing verbal abuse online, merely because she shared the same name as the trainee who filed against Park Si Hoo.

In a phone call with a media outlet, she said, “I’ve never seen Park Si Hoo except on TV. When I heard that I was the one that was assaulted by Park Si Hoo, I just laughed and shrugged it off as a joke in the beginning. But the situation grew out of hand. I don’t know why I became that person. I think it must be because I was on a program once. I called the police about my personal information being revealed, and the police told me that they’d send out an official report asking people to stop spreading my information because we just have the same name.”

Her photos, real name, school, and even major spread like fire throughout the internet. Believing her to be the trainee, many sent her comments like, “She must be going insane because she wants to be a celebrity“, “You’re a wh*re“, and “Don’t use Park Si Hoo“.

People are … uh … fucking remarkable.

Shit like that is why victims don’t want to come forward, a reality that’s on the heads of both the psychotic netizens and whoever leaked that information about the alleged victim out, which I sure as fuck hope wasn’t a journalist or law enforcement.

Anyway, enough about netizens and back to the case. Given the video evidence, there’s not really much else to debate, as the facts so far seem to jive completely with her version of the events.

The only chip he has left to play revolves around what happened once they were in the house, because that’s still technically unknown. In his initial statement, he went about as far as one could go without admitting to sexual relations, which is basically the only factor preventing this from being an open-and-shut case. Regardless though, given the accusation and the evidence available, I can’t imagine many rational people coming to the conclusion that they were all there for a sleepover or something. Nor do I think reasonable people would conclude that they waited hours for her to sober up so she could consent to sex.

To put it bluntly, barring some type of stunning turn of events, Park Si Hoo is fucked at this point, and deservedly so.

The whole process will take time, and there will be further updates to come, but if you ask me, the more pressing issue now is what Park Si Hoo’s supposed accomplice’s role was, as it’s entirely possible that the alleged victim was assaulted by two men and not just one.

  1. Ever the gentleman, even in rape

  2. People seem to be taking a very bizarre stance on this right now… It’s like they are backpaddling on what they said before, but still kinda defending their original comments on the case.
    Also, there are coments like “3. [+120, -28] I don’t think there’s anyone ‘normal’ who enjoys threesomes. Park Shi Hoo seemed to have an erotic look in his eyes all the time and look at him now, his career’s in the gutter.”, like they knew he was a pervert all along. What a joke.

    • I mean I get the whole rape thing! Oppa didn’t mean it! But how could he have a threesomme! Burn him alive!!

    • That’s what I mean.

      Disappointed in him more than giving a shit about rape.

  3. I’m just hoping that if she went into counseling, she was smart enough not to shower, or anything like that, and that there’s DNA evidence that they haven’t released yet.

    • she probably waited a bit to even go to counseling. &so many victims of sexual assault shower immediately b/c u feel so violated and dirty

      • I can’t imagine how hard it would be not to…it sucks that that’s pretty much the only way not to have hard evidence.

        • Dunno what the current status quo victim advice is, but I have to think that fighting back is probably the best defense, both against the rape and to send the guy away.

          I see the risk in escalating the situation, but even if he were to strike the victim, that’s evidence in itself. Much less scratching, hair, or whatever else.

          • I was once in a potential uncomfortable situation. I have an alpha female personality and I’m not afraid to defend myself physically but in that one instance, my body froze. I felt like I couldn’t move or speak and I was freaking out repeating “this can’t be happening”. I just cried and said “no” like fifty times in a whisper. Luckily he decided to back away.
            I imagine something like THAT probably happens. The victims probably don’t immediately react at the time. It’s scary.

            But yeah anyways, the status quo victim advice is to scream as loud as you can and fight.

    • She probably showered and what not, but I’m thinking the video is damning.

      • Also he effectively admitted there was “mutual” interest as man and woman, she was fine leaving the bar and then had to be carried home. It’s pretty damning evidence.

        • The moment he clearly admits to having sex with the woman after they got back to his house, he’s a rapist, IMO.

          He’s toeing the line, surely.

  4. I’m actually just going to watch the monkey show and watch who goes apeshit or not.

  5. OMFG! I want to shoot my snake venom in Kwon Sohyun’s anal cavity!

  6. So, another story of rape and assault where people off the bat called the girl whore and gold -diggers…and it turns out they were right after all.

    But that is not going to stop people from defending Oppa, and attacking women on reflect…even ones as young as 14.

    Over 95% of the time in any rape allegation, the accuser is telling the truth. So..I tend to start of believing them until I see otherwise.

    • What is the citation for that statistic?

      Because I have a difficult time believing that the conviction rate is 95%, so there has to be other factors there.

      • Lord know the conviction rate is not 95% with rape cases, so it has nothing to do with conviction and jail time. That is a whole other story. But if you looks at various rape studies and specifically of situations where it was found it was a definite of false accusation…the number are really low percentage-wise.

        You can find many of these just by a simple google search or wikapedia. But convictions..naw.

      • It’s not about the conviction rate, the 2-8% of rapes are false statistic usually refers to cases where the police decide that the report filed was false. Conviction rates for rape are pretty terrible, but that’s related to how rape is extremely difficult to prosecute.

        Here’s a good breakdown, using federal data:
        http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2013/01/07/the-saddest-graph-youll-see-today/

        • Right, and there are a lot of problems with that chart, as has been pointed out by people who actually do statistics for a living, feminists included.

          That is to say, proving 2-8% of rapes false doesn’t mean 92-98% rape accusations are true.

          I’m not doubting that rape victims gets screwed over most of the time or that they’re probably telling the truth when they come forward, but using shitty data like that just opens up weaknesses in arguments for naysayers.

          • Hey, relax; I figured you just wanted a ballpark, so I put up a basic infographic. All rape statistics are infamously unreliable, because unless somebody’s using their psychic powers there’s literally no way you can determine what percent of rapes are false.

            I never said 92-98% of rape accusations are true, I tried to answer your question about where cgirl’s 5% statistic was coming from. I also never said 2-8% are *proven false*, I said the police investigate and decide it was a false report, or maybe they don’t investigate and decide not to do anything anyway.

          • I’m relaxed, I’m just saying that shitty information like that being thrown around only fucks over the case of women worse because it will get torn to shreds by anybody who doesn’t take it at face value.

  7. Netizens drive me freaking crazy. I bet if it was someone like Rain who was surrounded with those rumors (most preferably with Kim Tae Hee), they would have burnt down his residence to ashes already. Biased as fuck. Everyone’s biased but damnit, they’re taking it to a whole new level

  8. mondaymorning

    Side eyeing these netizens so hard right now.

  9. ::::..:..::::….:

    Way to go netizens, another job well done. /sarcasm

  11. Can somebody enlighten me about the laws – if a chick is dead drunk, but conscious, and she kinda… doesn’t mind having sex (too drunk to completely understand what’s going on) – does it count as rape?

    • If she was unable to properly assess the situation and didn’t know who was exactly doing what, then yes, from a legal point of view it’s rape. If she was drunk to the point where she had to be carried, it is most likely she was not able to clearly give her consent or say ‘no’. There have been several court rulings so far in cases similar to that one, which broadened the definition of rape to include sex with the inebriated. At least in Europe and the US, might be different in Asia.
      Also, i’m loving your new avatar!

    • In the majority (all?) of first world country’s legal systems, a person cannot give sexual consent while intoxicated. Put it simply: if you get a woman drunk to have sex with you because she wouldn’t have sex with you otherwise, you are a rapist. Even if a person is mostly conscious but still drunk, alcohol removes their inhibitions and changes brain chemistry such that that person isn’t a rational actor and the law in most countries reflect that.

      Don’t have sex with drunk strangers. Don’t have sex with anyone the first time if they’re drunk. It’s amazing how many guys think that’s unreasonable.

      • Not that hard to rationalize, logically speaking.

        Just tell them to imagine if they would want their grandparents to be held to a contract they signed while they were drunk or drugged.

      • The questionable cases though are when both parties are drunk. No idea how that works, since neither could consent. Nothing, I guess?

        Also, I have to say, I know a pretty good number of guys who were raped by women using that standard, not through force, but I guess men are socialized to “deal with it” as far as drunk sex as well.

        • If both parties are drunk, and a woman files a lawsuit for rape against the guy because she was drunk and couldn’t give her consent, can the guy claim that he was too drunk to know that she wasn’t able to give her consent? o.O

          How do you suppose that would turn out? I think a jury would laugh at his face tbh, even if he were telling the truth.

  12. oh so he did it I was trying to defend you bro but after this you are fuck! you dirty pig.
    those netizens really have nothing better to do …. after all most of them have never touch the opposite sex

  13. I thought he already admitted that he had sex with the woman (claimed that it was consensual)?

  14. from what I understand hes only statement is that they had sex and it was consenual… it also doesnt state if the video shows she was conscious or not while being carried. I think he is supposed to be interviewed by the cops on the 24th for his full story on what happened that night. And to be honest knowing what hes facing is actually helping his case not hurting it. He now knows what evidence that is going to be brought to light. —

    • “In the process of (meeting the woman) we were mutually attracted to each other and shared our feelings, but I assure you I did not have a forced sexual encounter with her,” Park said. “I do not feel shamed at all, and the truth will reveal itself in the police investigation.”

      Maybe it’s a translation quirk, but he avoided saying they had sex, it seems.

      Probably for this exact reason.
