On the SBS ‘Curious Story Y’ that will air on the 29th, a story that happened at a mill will be introduced.

According to the production team, the mill has been going crazy recently due to the kimchi-making season. The 28-year-old rookie owner, Jang Hoon (pseudonym), experienced an unpleasant incident two months ago. At the store, which mainly caters to regulars, a middle-aged woman in her 40s whom he had never seen before suddenly came to ask if he also ground peppers.

However, for some reason, the woman who had not responded to Jang Hoon‘s words began to hover around him as if she was after something. Jang Hoon’s mother was also working there, so he was nervous that something dangerous might happen, when she suddenly touched Jang Hoon‘s body. What on earth happened at the mill that day?

“He suddenly grabbed my important part.”
“I really couldn’t remember anything when it happened.”

- Mr. Jang Hoon, the owner of the mill

The woman who was taken to a nearby police station on suspicion of sexual harassment was Ms. Choi (pseudonym). Two weeks after the incident, there was no apology, but one day, she suddenly contacted me. She said she had been too embarrassed to come see Mr. Jang Hoon. After that, Ms. Choi, who had even left a vitamin drink in front of the store without Mr. Jang Hoon knowing, came back with her husband to apologize for that day.

However, despite her apology, Ms. Choi said she didn‘t remember that day and that she couldn’t give him any settlement money. Furthermore, her suspicious behavior didn‘t stop there. Why on earth did Ms. Choi do something like this? During our reporting, the production team had a hard time meeting Ms. Choi. She said she still doesn’t remember the day of the incident, and that she definitely touched “red pepper powder.”

“I didn‘t touch it. That never happened to me.”
“I don’t remember. I have a headache because of it, so I‘m taking medicine.”

- Choi

Choi avoided the continued questioning, saying that she had a headache. However, she heard an unexpected story from neighbors who knew her well. It was said that Choi had caused trouble several times by stealing from local stores. Why can’t she stop her reckless behavior?

The broadcast is at 9 p.m. on the 29th.
