Seo Dong-ju, victim of sexual harassment

American lawyer Seo Dong-ju confessed to being a victim of sexual harassment, saying she receives a lot of dirty messages from men.

In the SBS entertainment show 'Strong Heart VS', which aired on the 23rd, broadcaster Hong Jin-ho, American lawyer and broadcaster Seo Dong-ju, science YouTuber Orbit, and comedians Shim Jin-hwa and Kim Ji-min appeared as a special feature of 'Cool Brain VS Hot Heart'.

On this day, Orbit revealed that he received more than 1,000 SNS messages a day after appearing in Netflix's 'Devil's Plan' and said, "Recently, the number has decreased to 200-300. Almost all of them are questions. I have been a person rich in questions since I was young. At that time, I asked a lot of questions to my teacher. “I was scolded. So I made a promise to myself at that time: ‘Never avoid any questions and answer them.’ So I reply to almost all messages,” he explained.

In response, Seo Dong-joo surprised everyone by saying, "What do I do if I receive a dirty message?" and "(Men) send me a lot of photos. They ask me to meet them and show them themselves."

Orbit said, "A lot of men with good bodies send me messages. I reply, 'You've achieved great physical accomplishments.' If you keep doing that, I'll block you, but I'll reply at least once. That might lead you to fall in love with science." He said.

Seo Dong-ju also confessed an anecdote about being involved in a car accident in the United States. He said, “When I lived in the United States, I once fell off a cliff. “When I was not good at driving, I was driving down a mountain road and a car came from the opposite direction. I was scared, so I tried to hit the brakes, but I stepped on the accelerator and fell through the guardrail.”

He continued, “I got caught on a tree and fell, opened the door and crawled out. I checked my body. Are they all attached? I called my boyfriend at the time and told him that my car had been in an accident and that I needed to have it towed. “Other people passing by were upset, but I said ‘I’m okay’ and asked them to call 911,” he said calmly.

When asked about her boyfriend's reaction, Seo Dong-ju said, "I was calm, so I didn't know it was this bad." He added, "I have a friend who was doing a doctorate, and he was also very T. “He was a friend who was studying AI,” he explained.
