overseas network reported on October 15 According to Yonhap News Agency, on the morning of October 15, local time, the South Korean Grand Court (Supreme Court) ruled on Choi Jong-Bum’s alleged violent intimidation against Goo-Hara and upheld the second-instance judgment. Sentenced for 1 year, not guilty of illegal filming.
In September 2018, South Korean female singer Goo Hara had a physical conflict with Choi Jongbeom and was threatened by the man with an indecent video. In August 2019, Cui Zhongfan was found guilty of intimidation, coercion, injury, and destruction of property in August 2019, but he was not guilty of illegal filming. He was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months imprisonment with a probation of 3 years. Goo Hara refused to accept the judgment and filed an appeal. To the dissatisfaction of the public opinion, after his suspended sentence, Cui Jongbeum, a former well-known stylist, opened a 24-hour barber shop in Sinsa-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and promoted it on social media.
On July 2, 2020, the second instance of the case was sentenced. Cui Zhongfan was sentenced to 1 year in prison and was arrested in court. He was not guilty of illegal filming. Both parties refused to accept the judgment and appealed to the Supreme Court.
Gou Hara entered the music scene as a member of the girl group KARA in 2008, and then stepped into performances and appeared on variety shows, carrying out various activities.
It is a pity that on the afternoon of November 24, 2019, Goo Hola passed away suddenly at home at the age of 29. The police found an autograph suicide note on the dining table in his home. The content reveals pessimism. The police said that no signs of crime were found at the scene, and Goo Hola is more likely to commit suicide.
