O has a daughter who, as he lacked an
agent, helped him handle the volume of calls asking him to appear in various roles following
Squid Game. In November 2021, on the first day of
that year's Korean Series, O threw the
first pitch. In July 2022, O was appointed Ambassador for Korean Performance Tourism by
Park Bo-gyoon, Minister of
Culture, Sports and Tourism.
Legal issues On November 25, 2022, prosecutors in
Suwon announced that O had been indicted on
sexual misconduct charges relating to an incident in which he allegedly sexually assaulted a woman in 2017. He was accused of various cases of sexual misconduct in which he had inappropriately hugged, made lewd comments towards, laid in the same bed with, and kissed the alleged victim across multiple incidents. Although he was charged in 2017, he was not indicted until 2022. During his trial in February 2024, the prosecution sought a one-year jail term for O, who denied the charges. A month later, he was initially found guilty and was sentenced to an eight-month suspended prison term, as well as being ordered to attend 40 hours of classes on sexual violence. Following the initial charges and conviction, O was dropped from a film project and banned from appearing on major Korean broadcasting systems. Following an appeal, O was acquitted in November 2025, with the court citing insufficient evidence and the possibility that the alleged victim's memory of the events might have been distorted over time. O expressed gratitude to the court for its "wise judgment", while the alleged victim criticized the decision. == Filmography ==
