[Sportschosun Kim Jun-seok] YouTuber Raral shocked viewers by revealing that she was once assaulted by an older male senior.
In the eighth episode of TikTok original content "Tiki Tiki Takataka Talk Talk Show" (hereinafter "Tiki-Taka Show"), which aired live on Thursday, the 18th, the cast focused on Mexico, South Korea's opponent in the second group-stage match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and spent time cheering for South Korea's victory. Jonathan, Winner's Lee Seung-hoon, Raral, "honorary Brit" Jinkyung Paik, and Kim Seong-won appeared on the show.
Raral recently surprised the cast by sharing an episode from the time she worked as a musical actress.
She recalled being called over by an older male senior while talking quietly backstage.
Raral said, "I was dragged to the dressing room and hit on the head with a hat," shocking everyone.
She continued, "I said, 'Did you just hit me on the head?' and suddenly he gathered everyone together," adding, "All the while, I kept thinking, 'Is this really okay?'"
She also added, "After the gathering ended, that senior told me, 'Don't you even cry? You're really tough for a girl,'" further surprising the cast.
Raral also shared a grievance from her days working part-time at a cafe. Recalling how she was severely scolded by the owner over a single strand of hair stuck to a dishcloth, she spoke about how hurt she felt at the time. The cast also expressed sympathy.
Meanwhile, the broadcast also featured stories from Jinkyung Paik about her time studying in the United Kingdom. Paik advised that when facing racism or rude behavior abroad, it is better to respond confidently with something like, "So what are you going to do about it?" rather than passively saying, "Please stop."
