Asiana head set to drop physical contact with female workers

Kumho Asiana chairman Park Sam-koo may stop monthly visits to Asiana Airlines' flight attendants following allegations that he made unwanted physical advances to female employees, the airline said Monday. The allegations came amid the #Me Too movement sweeping the world. "It is not an admission of any wrongdoing," a spokesman said. "But we will consider abolishing the visits, a tradition for our carrier for the past 20 years." Park, 74, has been visiting the carrier's headquarters in western Seoul the first Thursday every month to cheer up the flight attendants. On The Blind, an internet chatroom for company employees, comments have been made claiming that the executives encouraged the female employees to hug the leader of the carrier. <br/>
