Trot singer Kim Ho-Jun sentenced to 2 years and 6 months in prison for ”hit-and-run while drunk”... ”I wonder if he feels any guilt” = South Korea

Trot singer Kim Ho-Jun (33), who was on trial for causing a traffic accident while drunk driving and fleeing the scene, was sentenced to prison in the first trial.
On the morning of the 13th, the Seoul Central District Court indicted him on charges of violating the law on aggravated punishment of specific crimes (dangerous driving causing injury).
The court sentenced Kim Ho-Jun, who is accused of infringing the rights of the police, to two years and six months in prison. Prior to this, the prosecution had requested the court to sentence Kim Ho-Jun to three years and six months in prison.
The court said, "Right after Kim Ho-jun caused the traffic accident and fled the scene, he called the head of the management office and his manager and
He simply encouraged others to clean up the mess he had made, by asking them to come to his place and sort out the accident, even asking the most junior manager to do so."
"When the manager went to make a false confession, Kim Ho-Jun fled to a motel in Guri, left a false phone call in preparation for the investigation, and took a photo of himself before entering the motel.
"Considering his overall behavior, it is questionable whether, as an adult, he feels even an ounce of guilt for the crime he committed," the court said.
He also said, "By having someone falsely surrender on my behalf, I have caused confusion in the initial investigation and significantly wasted the investigative power of the police.
"Even though CCTV footage, which is objective evidence, shows him staggering around under the influence of alcohol, he gave unconvincing excuses and denied the allegations, and the situation after the crime was also poor," he said.
After the incident, Lee Kwang-deuk, CEO of the former Saengaku Entertainment (now Art M&C), and Chi, who had their manager falsely surrender in order to cover up Kim Ho-jun's crime, were arrested.
The head of the company, Mr. Cheong, was sentenced to two years and one year and six months in prison respectively. The manager, Mr. Chan, was sentenced to one year in prison.
Kim Hojun was arrested at around 11:44 pm on May 9th in Up, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
The suspect is accused of driving while drunk on the road in Apgujeong, causing a collision with a taxi and fleeing the scene. The taxi driver was diagnosed with a two-week recovery period.
After his escape, Kim Ho-Jun committed several crimes, including urging management office employees to falsely surrender and not providing passwords to police who confiscated three of his mobile phones.
However, despite Kim Ho-jun's admission that he had been drinking, the drunk driving charge was ruled out. The prosecution said, "At the time, Kim Ho-jun was
Considering that he drank alcohol on several occasions, it is difficult to determine his drinking figures by simply calculating backwards."
