79-Year-Old Squid Game Actor Sentenced For Kissing Woman On Cheek Against Her Will

South Korean actor O Yeong-su, renowned for his role in the global phenomenon Squid Game, has been convicted of sexual misconduct charges dating back to 2017. The charges stem from an incident where he allegedly hugged and kissed a woman against her will.

A sentence of up to eight months imprisonment, suspended for two years, was handed down to the 79-year-old actor on Friday by the Seongnam Branch of the Suwon District Court.

The actor denied the charges and said he would be appealing the Friday ruling while speaking to reporters outside the court.
