Former NCT member Taeil, aka Moon Tae-il, has reportedly pleaded guilty to charges of ‘aggravated’ rape. After pleading guilty, the prosecutors are reportedly demanding that the court punish the K-pop star with a seven-year prison sentence. Notably, the first trial of Taeil`s sex crime case took place on Wednesday, which is over a year after the incident occurred.
