Late Oh Yoanna’s Accused Bully Presents At MBC Like Normal, Disabled Comments Gain Attention

MBC weathercaster Kim Ga Young appeared on the February 1 broadcast of News Desk, continuing her regular duties despite being identified as one of the participants in a leaked group chat where several colleagues allegedly mocked and harassed the late Oh Yoanna.

The broadcast proceeded as usual, with Kim delivering the weather forecast while wearing a yellow dress. However, viewers noticed one significant change — the comment section was disabled when the weather segment was uploaded to MBC’s official channel. This stood out to viewers as the main News Desk program continues to allow comments on its full broadcast videos.

Recent evidence has shown Kim was part of a private chat room where four weather forecasters allegedly engaged in workplace bullying targeting Oh Yoanna. The contents of these messages have sparked public outrage following Oh’s tragic passing in September 2024.

The decision to disable comments appears to be part of a broader pattern, as weather segments featuring other forecasters have also had their comment sections closed. Recent broadcasts with weathercaster Geum Chae Rim on News Today and 12 MBC News were similarly uploaded without the ability for viewers to comment.
MBC has not officially commented on their decision to close the comment sections for weather segments. The network continues to face questions about its handling of workplace harassment allegations and its response to Oh Yoanna’s passing.
