Apparently Cho Jae-hyun's legal representative is in contact this actress through e-mail and said, "I heard that she will not come to Korea, therefore the charges against sexual assaults have been suspended".

This Korean-Japanese actress claimed that she was sexually assaulted 16 years ago by Cho Jae-hyun in the toilet in the drama studio. At that time, Jo had not been active after being embroiled in a sex scandal in February. Cho Jae-hyun, who was married at the time, refuted, "I had consented sex with A (the actress) and we were having a relationship". Jo also claimed that A's mother had demanded money and valuables from him for 10 years, although he decided to end the relationship after six months.

When A claimed that she was sexually assaulted by Cho Jae-hyun, he filed a complaint against her on charges of blackmail. However, according to Cho Jae-hyun's representative, she did not enter Korea for questioning and didn't actually file a lawsuit against Cho Jae-hyun. An arrest warrant was issued for A after the case was suspended.

If she comes to Korea, she'll be arrested at the airport and handed to Seocho Police.
