MBC terminates contract with one weather forecaster suspected of bullying the late Oh Yoanna, renews contract with 3 other weather forecasters

MBC has confirmed that it has terminated a contract with weather forecaster 'A', found to be guilty of bullying the late weather forecaster Oh Yoanna. Three other MBC weather forecasters previously suspected of contributing to the bullying, including Kim Ga Young, Lee Hyun Seung, and Choi Ah Ri, have renewed their contracts. 

On May 22 KST, MBC told media outlets, "The special task force formed by the Ministry of Employment and Labor did not find any evidence to conclude that Kim Ga Young, Lee Hyun Seung, and Choi Ah Ri contributed to the bullying." 

Regarding 'A', the forecaster believed to be the perpetrator in the case, MBC commented, "We do not intend to publicize the results of the task force investigation."

Following reports of the late Oh Yoanna's death in December of last year, the weather forecaster's family members raised allegations of workplace bullying based on evidence found in Oh Yoanna's phone and diary. MBC then partnered with the Ministry of Employment and Labor to form a special task force and investigate the case.
