The hearing that took place on the 14th took quite a while, starting at 2 in the afternoon and dragging until late at night. This was apparently because Park Si Yeon and Lee Seung Yeon reversed some of their statements, denying things they already admitted to back during the prosecution's investigation, throwing the case back into confusion once more.

Although all three have denied since the beginning that they abused propofol knowingly, they did admit to a few things while being questioned by the prosecution previously. Park Si Yeon had previously agreed with the prosecution on the number of times she had been administered propofol (initial finding - 148 times, but later reduced to 126), but the actress is now stating that the number is too high and that she had just agreed with the prosecution earlier in hopes of ending the trial quickly. Lee Seung Yeon had admitted that she did ask for extra propofol to be administered, but now she is stating that she did not do so and only said she did in hopes that the case would end quickly.

When asked at the latest hearing, "How do you feel right now?", Park Si Yeon responded, "I am very anxious and nervous. It's been three weeks since I've given birth. Following my birth, I haven't thought much about my trial. I wanted to focus on my child... I order for me to raise my child well, I plead with the judge for mercy. I am reflecting on this incident that occurred against my better judgement. I think that I lived kindly without causing harm to others. I definitely was not administered propofol as much as the recorded count and was not dependent on it."

"During the investigation, I was told, 'If you admit it, you can receive a favorable arrangement.' In my state of ignorance, I thought that if I admit it then this incident would be cleared quickly. When I received my first investigation, I was six-weeks pregnant. As I had experience suffering a miscarriage the year before, I was worried about it and thought that I needed to end this matter quickly to protect my baby." 

Lee Seung Yeon shared, "As much as I made a difficult return [to the industry], I didn't want to face any more difficulties. I thought that if I admit that I had a propofol dependency, then the trial would end quickly. I lied out of fear that the whole world would find out... Upon seeing my 5-year-old daughter, I started to have concerns. I realized that it was more important to regain my honor than to try to escape the situation... I never requested to be administered propofol under the pretense of a surgery or treatment... I lost a lot through this incident. I hate the word, propofol. People considered me a drug addict due to suspicions and speculations," shedding tears.

Jang Mi In Ae remained firm in her stance as she shared, "During the 1st investigation, I learned that the injections I received were of propofol for the first time. Through my hiatus and more, I went through a difficult time and I've lived in isolation from the outside. That is why I didn't even know that I was accused for propofol abuse. Starting February 2011, I learned that the drug is so dangerous that is can be designated as psychotropic drug... During the 2nd investigation, the prosecution stated, 'Other celebrities have admitted to it. If I don't admit it, then I will be charged.' I even asked myself 'Should I die?'... I was only administered propofol so that my surgery wouldn't hurt as much. There was no other intention behind it."
