He revealed the contents of a letter that Kim Ho-jun had sent to him from prison, saying, "The mid-autumn celebration (Chuseok, mid-autumn festival) holiday is about to begin. I have some news for you from singer Kim Ho-jun."
When Song was incarcerated at Seoul Detention Center, he was in the same building as Kim Ho-jun. Song said, "The other day, my wife and I were in the same building as Kim Ho-jun at the Yeoju Soman Prison.
I met with Kim Ho-jun, who has moved to the new office. I encouraged him, saying that I hope that he will have a great time on the stage, solidifying his skills and becoming a world-class singer. I read his true feelings in his letter.
However, I believe that his sincere remorse and his desire to move forward with a new career should be respected.
Kim Hojun said, "Thanks to this, I gained courage and realized why I have to stand on stage again and sing, and I am also able to use this time wisely."
"I've come to understand that I have to overcome this," he said. "The trial is still ongoing, but I'm living each day and each moment that I would rather erase from my memory."
In particular, I remember his words that he is grateful to be breathing and that he is living that way." Kim Hojun also said, "I also sympathize with those words.
I will try to apply this to my life as well. Even if I am confined, I will humbly reflect on myself every day without missing a single day and fill my time as Kim HoJun.
It was my mistake. I feel it again today. I will continue to learn more about humility in life and strive to become Kim Ho-jun, someone who will not fall in the same place due to the same mistake as David."
Prior to this, in May last year, Kim Ho-jun was accused of crashing into an oncoming taxi on a road in Sinsa-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and then fleeing the scene.
Kim Ho-jun was sentenced to two years and six months in prison in the first trial. Kim Ho-jun was dissatisfied with the second trial verdict and appealed to the Supreme Court. The court ruled that "the nature of the crime was so severe that he committed the crime after a traffic accident.
Kim Ho-jun abandoned his appeal, stating that the circumstances after the crime were not good, including his escape. Kim Ho-jun had been incarcerated at Seoul Detention Center until recently, but was transferred to Seoman Prison.
The fact that the prison was run by a private prisoner was revealed a little late. Somang Prison is the only privately run prison in Korea, run by the Agape Foundation under a contract with the state.
