Ex-NCT Taeil Sentenced for 2023 Quasi-Rape in Seoul

News summary

Former NCT and NCT 127 member Moon Tae-il (Taeil) was sentenced to three years and six months in prison, along with two co-defendants, for the aggravated quasi-rape of an intoxicated foreign tourist in Seoul in June 2023. The court determined that Taeil and his accomplices took turns sexually assaulting the unconscious victim after meeting her at a bar and taking her to a residence, describing the crime as particularly grave. Prosecutors sought a seven-year sentence, but mitigating factors included the defendants' lack of prior offenses and the victim's choice not to pursue further punishment. The men must also complete 40 hours of sexual violence education and face a five-year ban from working in institutions with children or adolescents. Taeil expressed remorse in court, but the judge dismissed requests for leniency since his confession only followed a search and seizure. Taeil was taken into immediate custody following the sentencing.
