According to the leading website, the Seoul Western District Court said during the final verdict on the case, “Jung filmed victim 'A's body illegally without consent, and the victim is experiencing significant mental shock and humiliation. While the victim's side is requesting severe punishment for Jung's action, Jung did not demonstrate an attitude of reflection.”
“Taking into account that Jung did not distribute this footage to anyone, and that he has no similar offense, Jung is hereby sentenced to 1 year in prison,” the court also said. Reportedly, the court also ruled that the singer is not found guilty of assaulting ‘A’ due to ‘insufficient evidence.'

Many fans had also reacted strongly to the accusations and even called for a ban on his work. Many of them also curated list of songs, involved with the singer, and urged others to boycott them.
