[+88] It will only be a matter of time for the victim to be exposed if they release the name of the attacker. The attacker has already received his judgment before the law so why is it necessary for any of you to know who he is? For social retribution? To keep him out of the industry? I'm sure the attacker himself will know to stay out to keep his identity safe, and if he does attempt to come back to the public, that's for the victim's side to deal with. Before the victim comes forward and says anything himself, just keep it moving. Let's be honest, we're not looking to find who the attacker is for the sake of the victim, right? We just want easy gossip to consume. Let's please just prioritize protecting the victim over satisfying a passing whim. 

[+86] Let's please protect the victim..

[+85] Why are people asking for his identity to be revealed... Once that gets out, the victim's identity will be leaked as well, so please stop whining about wanting to know just to satisfy your own curiosity. Think of the victim, please. 

[+78] I used to think that I wanted the attacker's face and name revealed to the public so that he can't ever set food in the industry again, but after reading through the comments, I've realized that it will also end up exposing the victim as well... While it's important to punish the attacker, I think it's more important to protect the victim. 

[+58] If the attacker's identity is revealed, things might get even more difficult for the victim. I'm just as angry with the attacker as all of you are but I'd rather not know who he is out of respect for the victim. 

[+19] Release the name

[+15] People, before you go looking for who the identities of these members are, please read the comments here first

[+13] I don't know who he is but he's lucky that the victim let him off this easy. If it had been anyone else, I'm sure his sentence would've been a lot harsher... The victim may have chosen to settle but that doesn't mean his pain has been 100% cured or treated. I sincerely hope this attacker is reflecting on his crime. 

[+5] Please tell us who he is.....

[+5] I don't get what the point of news like this is when you don't even say who it is;;;;

[+4] So who is it

[+2] Six-member idol group

[+1] Ah, I'm so curious
