Nayoung Case The Cho Doo Soon Case is an incident that took place in December 2008, in which an eight-year-old girl (alias Nayoung) was on her way to school when she was kidnapped by 57-year-old Cho Doo Soon, who was drunk at the time. Cho raped and beat Nayoung at a public squat toilet. Nayoung had injuries to her internal organs, and was taken to a hospital, surviving the incident. Cho was arrested and eventually sentenced to twelve years in prison. The case sparked outrage and protest including Nayoung's parents and many others. In 2011, R&B singer ALi released a song based on Nayoung's story, titled "Nayoungee." The song attracted controversy after being widely criticized, and ALi chose to omit it from her upcoming album. She also subsequently issued an apology. She then went on to say that the song was also about her battle with being raped. The 2013 film "Hope" is based on this case.
