Police conclude late actress was forced to serve men by her agency

8:47 pm - 07/10/2009
Police concluded Friday that a former talent agency chief assaulted, threatened and coerced a late actress, who committed suicide after accusing him of abusing her, to serve men at drinking parties as it turned the case over to the prosecution, according to Yonhap News.

Identified only by his surname of Kim, the 39-year-old suspect was arrested three days after being extradited from Japan on Monday. He had been hiding in Japan since December last year, prolonging his stay while attempting to flee to another country.

Jang Ja-yeon, 30, hanged herself at her house in Bundang, southern Seoul, on March 7, leaving a suicide note that accused her former agent of forcing her to attend drinking parties and to provide sexual favors to high-profile entertainment figures and journalists.
