This means that the court recommends resolving the case through mediation rather than proceeding to trial.
Previously in August 2024, former ADOR employee "A" (hereinafter referred to as A) sued Min Hee Jin for defamation, demanding 100 million won (equivalent to 70,000 USD) in damages.
A - This person reported a case of sexual harassment at work while working at ADOR. This person claimed that Min Hee Jin tried to cover up the case.
Then, in a series of press statements, Min Hee Jin revealed details of the case that "A" claimed violated the Personal Information Protection Act.
Along with the lawsuit against Min Hee Jin for defamation and false complaints, "A" also reported the former ADOR Vice President to the alleged attacker in the sexual harassment case to the Seoul Western District Employment and Labor Office.
In September 2024, the district court approved "A's" request to list Min Hee Jin's assets as temporary collateral in the defamation lawsuit, meaning that if "A" wins the lawsuit and Min Hee Jin fails to pay damages, the court has the right to seize Min Hee Jin's temporary collateral as a debt.
