\n\tSquid Game <\/em>star O Yeong-su has been indicted on charges of sexual misconduct in Korea, according to local reports and AFP.<\/p>\n

\n

\tThe actor, who won a Best Supporting Actor Golden Globe for his performance in the Netflix smash, was indicted yesterday without detention over an allegation that he inappropriately touched the body of a woman five years ago. Local reports and AFP confirmed the news.<\/p>\n

\n

\tThe case was closed earlier this year but reopened due to the victim appealing, according to local reports. Local outlet JTBC said that O, who played Oh Il-nam, the oldest game participant, in Netflix’s most-watched show of all time, said he had \u201cheld hands with the woman to show the way around a lake\u201d and that, while he had apologized, this was not an admission of guilt.<\/p>\n

\n

\tIn a statement Oh shared with JTBC, the actor said: \u201cI just held her hand to guide the way around the lake. I apologized because [the person] said she wouldn’t make a fuss about it but it doesn’t mean that I admit the charges.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\tAFP quoted a Suwon court official as saying that \u201ceverything reported by local media is not factually correct.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\tHe has been acting for more than 50 years but his role in Squid Game <\/em>drew him global fame and acclaim. Other performances include the role of King Lear in the eponymous play and an appearance in South Korean TV series chocolate.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
