Taiwanese television host Mickey Huang has apologized for possessing pornographic videos of underage girls, but his apology failed to alleviate public anger in Taiwan.The 52-year-old was involved in Taiwan’s #MeToo movement in June 2023, when he was accused by two female netizens of sexual harassment which took place about 10 years ago.
The Taipei District Prosecutors Office announced on April 3 that Huang would not be prosecuted due to a lack of objective evidence. The artiste, who previously enjoyed a positive image, has also reached a settlement with the two alleged victims. However, the prosecutors found seven sex videos of underage girls on Huang’s hard disk during the investigation. He was ordered to pay a fine of NT$1.2 million and write a letter of repentance.
After his latest misdeed was made public, a huge backlash followed, and he took to social media on April 4 to apologize. Now he is facing an allegation of raping a 17-year-old girl almost two decades ago. Huang’s misdeeds also led to calls for Taiwan’s Legislative Yuan to establish a framework to better protect minors from abuse, sexual assaults and sexual exploitation.
