Now to the latest on the female prosecutor who has ignited the global "MeToo" movement here in Korea.
The female prosecutor, who recently made shocking revelations on cable TV about being sexually harassed by her senior, has given testimony to the special investigation team looking into the case.
Park Soyun reports.
While the MeToo campaign has gained worldwide attention, the movement was relatively quiet in the socially conservative South Korea -- that was until female prosecutor Seo Ji-hyun came forward with her own story of sexual harassment.
The prosecutor's revelation appears to have sparked the movement in Korea where sexual harassment in the workplace is prevalent, but often ignored.
As a result of her explosive claims, the Supreme Public Prosecutors' Office recently formed a special inspection team to look into sexual assault allegations in the workplace.
A special investigation team on Sunday heard testimony from Seo for a period lasting over nine hours.
Seo was appearing for the first time since she claimed in a media interview that former senior prosecutor Ahn Tae-gun publicly groped her at a funeral in 2010.
The prosecutor said she testified honestly and hopes her case brings an end to sexual harassment in the workplace.

"My testimony was completely truthful. I hope my case will encourage other victims to come forward freely without fear and prevent future similar cases from happening again."

The special investigation team confirmed they have found specific proof that the incidents that occurred at the October 2010 funeral were true.
The team heard detailed testimony that the then-chief of the Justice Ministry's criminal affairs bureau tried to cover up the case and Seo was unfairly transferred to an unwanted post in the regional office in 2015.

Ahn has said that he apologizes for "things that may have happened" but he does not remember because he was intoxicated at the time and the incident occurred a long time ago.
He denied he was involved in Seo's appointment to other posts as well as covering up the case.
Seo recently appeared on Korean television and said it took her eight years to realize what happened was not her fault and she went on TV to tell other victims that it's not their fault.
Watchers are hopeful that Seo's courageous act will inspire other women in Korea to stand up and bring about slow but powerful changes in workplaces across the country.
