19-6-2023 (TAIPEI) Taiwanese host Mickey Huang has seemingly admitted to sexual assault allegations made by internet celebrity Zofia. In a Facebook post on June 19, Zofia claimed that a well-liked veteran with a wholesome public image forced a kiss on her over 10 years ago when she was 17 years old and also took nude photos of her.
While she did not name the person, comments by some netizens hinted that it was Mickey Huang. Mickey implicitly admitted to the accusations and apologized for his actions in three separate videos posted on his Facebook account later that day. He also apologized to his wife, actress Summer Meng, and their daughter.
In addition, the 51-year-old also exposed around 18 other celebrities and hosts for their ill-doings, including his ex-girlfriend Dee Hsu and her sister Barbie, Jacky Wu, Sam Tseng, Vicky Chen, Shotgun Tuo, Lawrence Chou, and Ariel Sha.
The posts were later taken down, and he was reportedly uncontactable after that. However, in a report by Taiwanese media, Mickey was found with self-inflicted knife injuries and was sent to the hospital. Authorities said he was rushed to the hospital for treatment after he was found unconscious with multiple cuts on his body. His condition is currently stable.
When interviewed by the Taiwanese media about Mickey’s condition, veteran television host Chang Hsiao Yen, who is a close friend of Mickey, revealed that Summer was the one who found him. In an interview with the media, Summer said that she is still trying to process everything that has happened. She added that they are family, and no matter what happens, they will face it together and mend the wrongs that were done in the past.
The incident has sparked discussions about sexual assault and harassment in the entertainment industry. Many netizens have expressed their support for Zofia and other victims while condemning the actions of those in positions of power who abuse their influence.
