The faculty stated that they reviewed Han Ji-sang's past controversies during the appointment review process, and that it was confirmed by judicial authorities that there was no sexual assault, taking into account the fact that the actor had suffered damages for a long time as a result.
However, student backlash followed, and the faculty explained that communication with students was blocked as the large-format posters posted on campus were removed without sufficient discussion among the professors and department members.
