Chairman Kwon said on the website of the Korea Broadcasting Culture Promotion Association on the 4th that `We expect the fact-finding committee to investigate various issues that are being raised objectively and fairly and quickly reveal the truth.'
Oyoanna turned her back on herself in September last year with extreme choices. As it was belatedly known that a large amount of suicide note was found on the deceased's mobile phone, suspicions arose that the cause of death was distress caused by bullying in the workplace.
The bereaved family filed a lawsuit against MBC employee A in the Seoul Central District Court, and MBC decided to form a fact-finding committee to find out the cause and truth of the deceased's death.
In a related development, Kwon said, `I pray for the repose of Oyoanna, who passed away at a beautiful age, and express my sincere condolences to the bereaved families as well,' adding, `I am shocked to learn that his sad death was related to workplace harassment during the Lunar New Year holiday.'
It is also important to confirm the facts, but it is regrettable and regrettable that such an issue was raised in MBC, a public broadcaster, before that.
Then "I immediately checked the relevant facts from MBC and listened to the countermeasures, and raised the need for a full-scale investigation."MBC reported that it would form a fact-finding committee, including outside experts, to launch an investigation soon.", he explained.
MBC put Chae Yang-hee, a lawyer for Hyemyeong, as the chairman of the fact-finding committee on the case, and Jeong In-jin, a lawyer for Barun, a law firm, was included as an outside member. The fact-finding committee, which will also participate as a member of the company's internal personnel, will begin its first meeting on the 5th to confirm the facts about the allegations surrounding the deceased.
Chairman Kwon expects the fact-finding committee to investigate the various issues currently being raised objectively and fairly and quickly reveal the truth"I hope this investigation process can be a process of relieving injustice and healing wounds" he said.
The Broadcasting Culture Promotion Association will work with MBC to find a way to prevent such unfortunate events from happening again based on the results of the investigation"We will demand that freelancers, including weather casters, come up with improvement measures by checking the overall working environment."
The following is the full text of more than the volume.
First of all, I pray for the repose of Oyoanna, who passed away at a flowerlike age, and I would like to express my heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family.
As the chairman of MBC's management and supervision organization, the Korea Broadcasting Culture Promotion Association, I was shocked to learn that his sad death during the Lunar New Year holiday was related to bullying in the workplace. It is important to check the facts, but it is regrettable and regrettable that such a problem was raised by MBC, a public broadcaster.
I immediately checked the relevant facts from MBC and listened to the countermeasures and raised the need for a full investigation. MBC reported that it will form a fact-finding committee, including outside experts, to launch an investigation soon.
We hope that the fact-finding committee will investigate the various issues currently being raised objectively and fairly and quickly reveal the truth. In addition, I hope this investigation process can be a process of relieving unfairness and healing wounds.
Based on the results of the investigation, the Korea Broadcasting Culture Promotion Association will work with MBC to find a way to prevent such unfortunate events from happening again. In addition, we will require you to check the overall working environment of freelancers, including weather forecasters, and come up with improvement measures.
Once again, I pray for the eternal rest of the deceased.
