Myeong Seop Lee and the prosecution negotiated a plea deal for Lee. As part of the deal, Lee pleaded guilty to lesser charges of harassment as petty misdemeanors. In exchange, the prosecution moved to drop the fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct charges. 

Lee was sentenced to 30 days in prison but received credit for time served, and the remaining time was suspended. This means he won't have to spend any additional time behind bars.

Lee didn't attend Tuesday's hearing. Instead he authorized his lawyer, Edward Han, to appear on his behalf and plead guilty for him. 

According to the magistrate's complaint, in March, female tourists at Fish Eye told officers they felt someone touching their private parts while swimming and identified the person as a man wearing yellow shorts. 

Lee was identified as the man and police saw him wearing yellow shorts, documents state.
