The public’s anger over his early release and alleged attempts to return to the entertainment industry has been reignited by this incident.
Jung Joon Young, well-known for his role in the Burning Sun Scandal and subsequent conviction for sexual assault and illegal filming, served his full five-year sentence earlier this year.

There was widespread criticism following his release, with many arguing that the punishment was insufficient considering the severity of his crimes.
According to a French netizen who was present at the club, reports described a concerning situation involving Jung.
At first, Jung was thought to be a regular customer, but reportedly engaged with the netizen and their companions, even inquiring about their Instagram accounts.
Here’s a translation of a review of Jung Joon-young at a Lyon club by a French person living in Lyon. 1. The writer (French) ordered drinks with his friends at a club in Lyon, France, but the order was wrong. It was a waste to throw it away, so he was going to give it to the people around him, but then a man suddenly appeared and said he wanted to drink it himself (this is Jung Joon-young) https://t.co/sw1LfWYlUf

The netizen eventually identified Jung and grew more concerned about his presence, especially after witnessing him flirt and kiss another woman at the venue.
The netizen commented anonymously, stating that they were taken aback by seeing him there.
“I recognized him from the news and his distinctive features. It’s deeply disturbing to witness someone with his history behaving like this.”
2. The writer recognized Jung Joon-young as soon as he saw his face, but he wasn’t sure and asked for the Instagram IDs of the writer’s group. But the data inside the club didn’t work (in the meantime, fucking France lol), so JJY took a picture of the writer’s Instagram ID. 3. The writer was not sure and asked the writer for the presumed JJY man’s

After the encounter, there was speculation about Jung’s plans in Europe, as reports indicated that he was having difficulty finding employment and considering options overseas.
It was a newly sold account with 4 followers ㅋㅋㅋ The writer tried to dig up some information about JJY since it came to this, and although the writer’s identity cannot be disclosed in detail, it seems that he is currently having a hard time finding work in Europe + is traveling around Europe looking for work and is going to Switzerland tomorrow. It seems that JJY has connections in France.

The actions he took in Lyon have caused anger and shock among both South Koreans and those watching from other countries. Many are questioning the validity of his claimed recovery.
The online responses of South Korean netizens continued to emphasize the frustration and disappointment towards Jung’s actions.
Reactions varied from revulsion to doubt towards his capability to change.
Some people expressed disapproval towards the justice system for what they perceived as being too forgiving towards a criminal who had been found guilty.
- “There is no such thing as rehabilitation for criminals.”
- “He looks like he needs chemical castration”
- “That b*stard has connections.”
- “It’s ridiculous that you said that you are a famous Korean singer, lol, you’re not a famous singer, but a criminal.”
- “There are some things that will never change.”
- “People don’t change.”
- “He’s a criminal, but he can leave the country???”
- “He’s out of his mind.”
- “Shouldn’t we report this to the French press? Rapist is targeting young foreign girls.”
There have also been concerns raised about the safety of young women in Europe, due to Jung’s past and his alleged actions in the club.
There have been suggestions to increase efforts in raising awareness among local authorities and the media in order to prevent potential harm.
