The committee held their final meeting at the Gwacheon Government Complex at 2 p.m. So this is about revealing the results of the reinvestigation, which they did recently in a 250-page report, and … well, it had decidedly mixed results. In April 2018, almost 10 years after her death, the Investigative Team of Past Affairs began a 13-month reinvestigation into her case. During the investigation after her death, the police cleared about 10 names charged for sexual abuse that were mentioned in the actress’s list, and the case ended with only her agency CEO and manager being charged for assault and defamation. She is said to have left behind a final document revealing that she had been forced to sexually entertain powerful figures in the business and media industries. Jang Ja Yeon was an actress who passed away in March 2009, and her death was ruled to be a suicide. While you should read up elsewhere about the recent events in this case, a brief overview of what this is all about is probably best to start with. But following the re-opening of the case last year, the Ministry Of Justice‘s Committee Of Past Affairs recently decided whether to continue reinvestigating the case.

In the meantime, the Investigative Team of Past Affairs at the Supreme Prosecutor's office concluded their case into the re-investigation of the late actress on May 13th and submitted their report to the Ministry of Justice's Committee. Of course there is differing public opinion that Yoon's statement is unreliable due to recent news involving the actress but her statements have been confirmed with statements made by author Kim Soo-min and Kim Dae-oh 10 years ago." This was confirmed by everyone who was at Kim's table at the birthday party. The prosecution explained that "although Yoon's descriptions of the alleged perpetrator were mixed, her statement consistently confirmed that someone of his description molested Jang Ja Yeon at Kim's birthday party.

The Seoul District Court conducted a trial on the decision on the 15th and just like the prior hearing, the prosecution and Cho's side fiercely clashed over the "trustworthiness of Yoon Ji-Oh's statements."Prosecutors claimed that outside Yoon's attitude, her 2009 statement regarding the case was credible but Cho's side countered that Yoon's statement had essentially been rejected after the indictment was suspended a decade ago.
Cho was seen crying and saying "I want to die",denying the allegations. The Chosun Ilbo reporter was indicted by prosecutors for forcibly molesting the late Jang Ja Yeon and has been sentenced to a one year prison term by the court.
