Hello Mitsuhiro Aibara,

Thank you for the report and feedback.
To investigate further this issue at our end, may I kindly request you
to launch workbench under debug mode (--log-level=debug3) and provide
unaltered workbench log file(more details about log are explained here

If you can provide more information, feel free to add it to this bug and
change the status back to 'Open'.  

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.

Thank you, Mitsuhiro San for the details.
I couldn't reproduce locally but found a closest related bug which has a workaround. Could you please check Bug #101408  and see if the workaround proposed by reporter works for you? Thank you.
