If the allegations are recognized, he could face over 7 years of imprisonment or life imprisonment under South Korea's special law regarding sexual violence crimes. According to reports, Tail was charged on June 13 after the victim reported the incident. Amid this, it became clear that Tail had conducted a live stream the day after being charged. On June 14, celebrating his birthday, he held a live stream where he expressed gratitude to fans, saying, 'Thank you for celebrating my birthday. Thanks to Shizuni (the name of his fans), I was able to spend such a happy birthday.' During the stream, Tail communicated with fans in a cheerful manner, discussing his fashion preferences and singing while playing the guitar. Prior to this, on August 28, SM Entertainment reported that Tail had been accused of sexual crimes. The agency stated through an official comment, 'We have recently confirmed the fact that Tail has been accused in a criminal case regarding sexual crimes.
