I just discovered that someone finally picked this up! Thank you so much! I primary read on mangadex and some discord servers bc it's far better communication to the scanlators :)
I hope you are able to find a new job, especially if there such bad predicaments.
On the story, I bet Park Junho is part of some secret high society by now.

ah, do you mean your own experiences? because if so? holds u and hugs ;; its hard to get over experiences like that, really. esp since it can cause trauma and etc...i think honestly the most preferred option is to go to therapy and see how you can deal with it. but if thats unavailable just know that dealing with bad experiences take a lot of time and effort! try looking for jobs (when youre ready) and research them thoroughly to see if the workplace isnt as immoral as your last one + if it fits your expectations

This is advice to take action against companies that have abused you. This can be a long difficult process so I understand If you don't want to confront them, then all I can suggest is therapy and talking to family and friends about it for support. I am adding a spoiler to prevent a wall of text.
I hope things get better and you can find a better job.

If the company has been dealing with you unlawfully you need to document everything for your own records. Every company now monitors what happens on their computers, so you should use a paper notebook or a personal device that is not connected to the company network. As soon as reasonably possible after it happens you need to document the time, place, who did it, who was around, what happened. If you can remember past events you should sit down asap and document those. After that read the company employee handbook to check their official policies on those types of events. This is important for understanding your rights and future options. Some companies don't have their own policies but they are required to follow certain laws, depending on the country. Then talk to a reliable lawyer who specializes in these kind of suits, you don't need to retain them yet, but talk about your options. You can go with a parent or friend for support. Next, go to HR to explain what happened, show them a PHOTOCOPY (always have multiple copies for your own record, never trust some one else with the only copy) of your evidence, and inform you expect them to handle it quickly, DON'T SIGN ANYTHING take it to a lawyer or take it home if you don't understand it. Tell them you have a lawyer and are prepared to take legal action if they don't act. If they give you attitude or won't do anything you HAVE to follow through and retain a lawyer and sue them or file to start some kind of investigation. If you don't the problem will continue or get worse. You should also consider contacting several newspapers and any government officials who investigate these incidents, you can do this anonymously if you prefer. The bad news is that your job will likely be worse while this is going on or you might be fired.
I hope things get better and you can find a better job.

@Dantrig thank you for the advice. But where I’m from... they don’t provide the same protection and or legal means for parttimers as they do to full time staff.
(and to think I was contemplating on working full time after they offered me a job)
They also usually don’t have any paper trail in regards to parttimers.(ie, pay in cash, no contracts, communication thru texts) Legally I know what I can do.... it’s just that the law doesn’t provide for it. Hence the dilemma.
Also, I did go to HR. Hence the termination.
And the people who did all those stuff are friends with the big boss. So yeah.... it’s a losing battle.
Right now... just trying to get over this “trauma”.

What a fun backstory! I wonder if he's still alive and she can meet him..... That would be pretty cool.... Though somehow it doesn't seem like this story is going in that direction.
Sorry to hear about the tough job situation. I haven't experienced anything like that before so all I can say is to hang in there! I don't know what sort of job you had, but I definitely don't think that is the norm. So I hope that when you are ready to move on and get out there again you can find a job with a better work environment!

From what you have also mentioned in the comments, you have already lost the battle. So my advice, is to cut your losses and put it behind you. Look forward and start looking for a different job. If that is too scary or your not ready, then go to therapy/counselling first or talk to friends/family/ally who will be on your side.
Get it out of your system first and then research what sort of places would be nice to work at. For example, my current and last job are/were really old buildings with a lot of history and I find that employees there tend to be nicer than in a previous office job I had.
So focus on yourself and what helps you most.
I fear I may have been too blunt but I hope this helps and that better things happen for you
Also, thank you for the chapters!!

It may sounds exhausting, but I suggest looking for a different job. If the job is really that great you might consider recording the sexual harassment and use it as pressure medium against the boss/ the corporation. Anyway hope you make the right decision in the end ad thanks for translating :)

I've been in your shoes countless times. I'm resident of the states (hispanic) and I have gotten into multiple toxic situations at work. One even being when I was in HR. No matter how much a logged and recorded the employer will rather have you quit and replace one good employee than unsettle the larger group....
I'm so sorry you have to go through that and I hope you find your answer soon!
As always thank you for your work.

Yes, shout that she has something valuable even louder Danny. Thank you.
He sure doesn't act like the founder of the banking system and head of an information network.
Oof. That's rough, man. If you want to fight it, there are ways, but it would be long and exhausting and probably a lot more trouble than any material benefit you could gain is worth. It sounds like you've mostly lost already, so if you want to move on, that's an option too.
What you should definitely do no matter what in the future, however, is take measures to protect yourself. Document absolutely everything with copies of records and recordings or signatures, everything. Take extra care not to give your employers a legal excuse to fire you. And much more such steps. There's probably websites that give more clear-cut advice than a layman like me can offer.
Of course, this is all for when you actually get back into the workforce. No need to rush into that after your past experience. Just take some time to yourself, figure things out, and mentally prepare yourself to be like Iris and bite back if need be.
