SBS Current Affairs PD Fired for Sexual Harassment Amidst Entertainment Industry Scandals

In a shocking development, a South Korean broadcasting station SBS has confirmed the dismissal of a Current Affairs PD, identified as 'A', due to allegations of sexual harassment.

SBS officially acknowledged on the 17th that PD A, who was known for directing a popular current affairs program, was fired in violation of the company's disciplinary regulations regarding sexual harassment. PD A had been praised for his sharp insights and warm perspective on societal issues presented through his work.

This incident follows closely on the heels of another controversy involving PD 'B', who directed tvN's entertainment show 'Sixth Sense: City Tour 2', being accused of sexual assault. The accuser, 'C', who was a co-producer, claimed that after a company dinner, PD B made unwanted physical advances and subsequently removed her from the program after she refused. PD B has denied these allegations through his legal representatives.

Netizens expressed dismay, with comments like 'It's unbelievable that such incidents continue to occur in the entertainment industry,' and 'This raises concerns about deep-rooted issues within broadcasting.' Many called for thorough investigations and preventative measures.
