161222 Seventh Trial of Defendant A & Her Accomplices on the Charges of False Accusation and Attempted Extortion
- Date and Time
Dec. 22, 2016, 4 PM
- Judicial Bench
Seoul Central District Criminal Court 15 Single Judge Choi Jong Jin
- Defendants
1) Lee, so-called A, charged with false accusation & attempted extortion, imprisoned
2) Hwang (mob) charged with attempted extortion, imprisoned
3) Lee (Defendant Lee’s boy friend) charged with attempted extortion, not imprisoned
Note 1: During the trial when the Korean fans were waiting outside of the courtroom, the fans pointed out to the reporter who kept using the word, accuser for the Defendant Lee for her news article that she should use the term defendant instead (The tweets by Korean fans).
Note 2: Many of Korean newspapers still mislead the information on the relationships among the three defendants. Many of them still report Defendant Hwang is Defendant Lee (A)’s cousin, but it is NOT true. Mob Hwang was introduced to the other two defendants to plan and execute their crime when they premeditated it (Refer to this posting by 6002Sky https://goo.gl/7rFudU). And, Defendant Lee (A) and another Defendant Lee (BF) were living together at the same address and such fact had been pointed out by the Judge at the first trial.
Note 3: Mob Hwang was indicted for two other fraud cases. Thus, all three cases were consolidated together and he has been tried for three cases at the same court. Under the Korean Criminal Procedure Act, Article 300, the court may order the consolidation of oral proceedings (i.e., trial cases) upon request of a prosecutor or defense counsel or ex officio to reduce repetitive procedures.
- The Interrogation on the Defendants
The interrogation on the defendants was held in the closed court for the protection of the privacy of the victim, Yuchun. It has lasted for about 2 hours and 30 minutes.
- The Final Statements from the Defendants
Through their final statements, the defendants delivered to the Judicial Bench that they have been unfairly charged. Defendant Lee (A) gave the detailed account of this case and asked mercy with the regret for her past behaviors.
- The Demand of Prison Terms by the Prosecutors
1) Lee (A): 2 years
2) Hwang (mob): 3 years and 6 months
Note 4: The Prosecutors explained that Defendant Hwang committed one more crime while he had been already involved in other crimes and it was hard to believe he participated in this crime without any form of compensation although he insisted he did out of his chivalrous spirit.
3) Lee (BF): 1 year and 6 months
Note 5: The Prosecutors explained they demanded the above terms for him considering the fact that he came to involve in this crime because his girl friend who has been living with him told him that she had had been sexually assaulted.
- The End of the Trial
The final decision by the Judicial Bench will be delivered on the 17th of January.

Thank you for informing us. I can’t help but think the proposed jail terms are inadequate. They harmed Yoochun so badly, therefore they should be punished accordingly.
At this point I can’t understand comments such as “even if he’s innocent, he’s done for” or “his career is over anyway”. “SAID WHO EXACTLY?”, I inevitably have to ask?! If you give this response to the haters or ignorants, they’ll tell you “people will not want to see him in dramas again”. But what people? Fans? Let me laugh… General public? Surely there are people who heard not Yoochun but the accuser gang are being prosecuted in the end. Won’t they wonder why that could be? It’s not some sort of impossible task to explain the truth behind this story. I want to believe people will listen. It’s fully up to them whether they want to partake in witchhunt and ostracize an innocent person who was wrongly accused. With cases like Chun’s SK will have to decide if they want to be known as a country of bullies where the victim of a crime is supposed to beg for forgiveness for the entertainment of the crowd but to no avail. Or they can choose to punish criminals and help innocent people restore their reputation. Then there’s a large group who don’t care. They didn’t care before and won’t care afterwards. As to haters, they don’t want to see Chun anywhere, we know that. Will that small group dictate to everyone? They won’t to me!
So who are the mysterious “they” who don’t want Yoochun back? Probably those commenters. To everyone who wastes their time arguing why innocent Yoochun can’t think of getting his life and work status back I recommend to rather focus on spreading the truth about the case. A good person never lets another good person down!
Yoochun fighting! ❤
Merry Christmas everybody 🙂
These incredibly negative (and WRONG) comments are made by a few isolated Haters with a capital “H”. The way the news of all the negativity was being reported in the beginning, it *seemed* like it was overwhelmingly bad, but as we have seen from actual polls of fans and fair-minded people, Chunnie’s popularity is still strong – polling at well over 90%, and that was before knowing the facts, the trials and being found innocent of wrong-doing.
People who spread this kind of Hate are really pathetic. Their comments say more about THEM than they ever do about Yuchun.
Well said! I couldn’t agree with you more @lilibaiyu
“People who spread this kind of Hate are really pathetic. Their comments say more about THEM than they ever do about Yuchun.”
These Haters know NOTHING but yet they’ve got so much to say.
Like.. I don’t care, I just hate. And they think it’s fun, how childish.
I’m seldom bothered by this pathetic bunch
and I believe Yuchun will not be bothered by them too. Right Chun? ~__^
Since their earliest times as members of DBSK, our members of JYJ have always had to deal with haters of one kind or another. They know very well how to deal with them. Yuchun knows who he is and he knows what he wants. I have a lot of faith in him that he will be very focused on moving ahead with the thought of resuming a stellar career. Beyond that, he has Jaejoong and Junsu, always supporting him, always encouraging him. Think for a minute what it would be like to have those two on you side through think and thin. Pretty powerful, I’d sayl!

“I can’t help but think the proposed jail terms are inadequate. They harmed Yoochun so badly, therefore they should be punished accordingly.”
Am totally with you on this! I was like “What are the above jail terms comparing to the pain they’ve put Yuchun through?”
Then again, at least they are going to prison, this is how I console myself, haha~^^
and I’m praying for miracles now.
For the Judge to miraculously triple up the jail terms proposed by the prosecutors; and even this can’t justify their crimes.
I know it’s impossible, but a girl can dream right? xD
All we want justice for Yuchun.
“During the trial when the Korean fans were waiting outside of the courtroom, the fans pointed out to the reporter who kept using the word, accuser for the Defendant Lee for her news article that she should use the term defendant instead (The tweets by Korean fans).”
These k-reporters are still in so much denial that Woman “A” (Defendant Lee); once their innocent “Accuser” is now the guilty “Defendant”.
And what with this 7th trial; she’s officially further downgraded to the GUILTY CRIMINAL.
I wonder how they’ll be able to swallow this FACT
& how much longer they’ll be able to deny the FACT that the real victim of this whole ordeal is Park Yuchun.
The amount of biasness is insane. I wonder how much they are paid to stay bias like this.
And the same applies to ’em pathetic antis/haters/naysayers out there.
THIS >> “Many of Korean newspapers still mislead the information on the relationships among the three defendants. Many of them still report Defendant Hwang is Defendant Lee (A)’s cousin, but it is NOT true. Mob Hwang was introduced to the other two defendants to plan and execute their crime when they premeditated it.”
Be updated.
“Cousin” is just a fake “relation” created for Mob Hwang to paint the awful Woman “A” an innocent angel.
Angel? My foot!
nobody can dictate what YUCHUN’s future be like inspite of all d negative things being said about him
it is only God who holds his future and everybody’s future
and He promised not to forsake nor leave us including our YUCHUN
ALWAYS KEEP THE FAITH
