A court in South Korea's Gangwon Province has fined a woman 2.8 million won (US$2,000) for pulling down the trousers and underpants of a male colleague in front of other staff members.

The Chuncheon District Court handed down the sentence last weekend, also ordering the woman, who is in her 50s and works in a restaurant kitchen, to complete eight hours of sexual violence prevention education, Yonhap reported.
