Netizens in Thailand are calling for a boycott of U70 female tycoon Leena Jung due to her sexual harassment of a young male actor on a livestream.
On the evening of September 5th, businesswoman Leena Jung (Leena Jungjunja) participated in a livestream sales event for a renowned Thai brand alongside young actor Phusanu Wongsavanischakorn, often referred to as Yoon.
During the live broadcast, the 63-year-old tycoon shocked viewers by burying her face in Yoon's armpits. The 28-year-old star seemed intimidated by Mrs. Leena Jung's audacity but could only awkwardly smile as he was engaging with the online audience.
Not stopping there, Mrs. Leena Jung even attempted to unbutton Yoon's shirt collar. Throughout this ordeal, the Y-Destiny heartthrob could only endure, his face flushed with embarrassment.
Mrs. Leena Jung's series of actions have outraged and disgusted netizens. They condemn the U70 female tycoon for her inappropriate behavior and lack of respect towards the much younger male actor. Many have accused Mrs. Leena Jung of sexually harassing Yoon and are urging a boycott of the controversial businesswoman.
Currently, netizens in Thailand, especially Twitter users, are collectively posting the hashtag #BanLeenaJung (Boycott Leena Jung).
In response to public outcry, Y.Entertainment, Yoon's management company, issued a public apology. The company apologized for allowing the artist to participate in the program without seriousness, causing damage to the artist's reputation and mental state, as well as negatively affecting society, making audiences uncomfortable. The company pledges not to allow similar incidents to occur in the future.
At the end of the announcement, Y.Entertainment stated that Yoon is currently taking a break from work to rest and stabilize mentally.
Leena Jung (born in 1959) is a businesswoman and actress known for comedic roles in Thai films. She once intended to enter politics by running for Mayor of Bangkok in 2004, 2008, and 2009 but was unsuccessful each time.
In 2017, the U70 female tycoon shocked the public by posting a ninth husband recruitment notice on television. The criteria for selecting Leena Jungjanya's ninth husband include being under 25 years old, over 1.8m tall, weighing under 70kg, having a six-pack abdomen, and meeting the wife's needs up to 28 times a day. The reason for divorcing her previous husband was reportedly his failure to meet the tycoon's needs. Out of over 60,000 applicants, the lucky man chosen by the female tycoon is Rangsee, who is 34 years younger than her.
Currently, Mrs. Leena Jung remains single. The female tycoon has not commented on the allegations of sexual harassment against Yoon.
