We've compiled the controversy surrounding Kim Tae-in's alleged sexual advances during a blind date. From the JTBC crime squad leader's report to Kim Tae-in's statement, age, occupation, and Instagram information, we've compiled the facts.

1. Where did the controversy surrounding Kim Tae-in's alleged sexual encounter during a training camp begin?

The controversy began with the JTBC current affairs program Incident Commander.

 

A woman in her 40s, Ms. B, appeared as an informant on the broadcast and revealed that she had gone through a divorce due to her husband's infidelity.

 

According to Mr. B's claim,

My husband and business employee A were having an illicit relationship.

Won a judgment in the 2022 adultery lawsuit

He said he was shocked to learn that the woman in question was appearing on a dating show, so he reported it.

 

The broadcast included a portion of the verdict, explaining that the court ruled that the husband and the other woman were responsible for the breakdown of the marriage.

2. Why Kim Tae-in was identified and why the controversy grew

The controversy spread rapidly when Kim Tae-in was mentioned as a person who met the conditions among the participants in the dating variety show.

 

The reason why it caused a particularly big reaction is

It's not just a simple dating show

This is because it was a ‘parent-accompanied blind date’ format where the mother appeared with her child.

 

The fact that “a person suspected of adultery appeared in a program that was supposed to involve marriage” was a factor that fueled the emotional backlash from viewers.

3. Official statement from the production team of "Match Camp" and decision on editing

Immediately after the controversy, the production team of "Matching Camp" released an official apology.

The production team's position is summarized as follows:

 

I recently became aware of this fact

The performer's contract includes a clause guaranteeing statements regarding social issues such as adultery, crime, and school violence.

Decision to completely delete (edit) the actor's screen time from all remaining episodes

Considering the possibility of a lawsuit for damages based on breach of contract

 

That is, even if the facts are not completely confirmed
This is a preemptive measure taken in consideration of viewer inconvenience and program risks.
