The chief of the Songpa Police Office told Newsen on September 23, "Out of the four reported situations, Kim Hyun Joong admitted to one account of bodily injury. In relation to the part regarding Kim Hyun Joong's acknowledgment of the bodily injury charge, we plan to send comments for indictment to the prosecutors either this week or the next. If we write out our views and send them, the prosecutors will wrap up the rest."
In addition, the chief had told Star News, "We are also under discussion about sending the acquittal or individual feedback relating to the three additional assault charges including regular assault."
The chief pointed out that as Kim Hyun Joong acknowledged one of the four cases of assault reported by the ex-girlfriend, that one case was judged to be a charge of bodily injury. The chief explained that the difference between a bodily injury charge and an assault charge was that even if the two parties reached an agreement, the bodily injury case could not be concluded without a prosecution case.
Meaning, although the charges against Kim Hyun Joong were withdrawn by his ex-girlfriend, it appears that since he did acknowledge and admit guilty to one account of physical assault, this will still need to be taken care of by the police and prosecutors.
