MAMAMOO’s Hwasa Aquitted Of Public Indecency Charges

Oct 4, 2023

The police has decided not to forward Hwasa’s case to the prosecution.

On October 4, the Seongdong Police Station in Seoul announced, “In late September, we made a decision not to transfer MAMAMOO’s Hwasa, who was accused by the Student and Parents Human Rights Protection Coalition (KPA) on charges of public obscenity, resulting in no charges.”

The police added, “After summoning Hwasa as a defendant, investigating the content and development process of the performance [of that day], and comprehensively reviewing the statements of those involved, [we found it] difficult to acknowledge the criminal charges.”

In response to the report, Hwasa’s agency P Nation shortly commented, “We received relevant information and are currently checking it.”

Previously on May 12, Hwasa performed at the Sungkyunkwan University Festival while filming tvN’s “Dancing Queens on the Road.” At the time, Hwasa sang her solo song “Don’t” during which she made a suggestive gesture, resulting in the Student Parents and Human Rights Protection Solidarity to file a complaint.
