Kim Hyun Joong's ex-girlfriend is reported to have filed for a withdrawal of her lawsuit against the star on September 17 after a few days of consideration. A rep from the Seoul Songpa Police Station stated, "We received the application for withdrawal of the case against Kim Hyun Joong at 12:30PM," and his agency also confirmed the news.

The assault victim's lawyer further added that there was no monetary exchange involved in cancelling the case, but Kim Hyun Joong did meet with her personally to apologize. The ex-girlfriend's lawyer explained, "The plaintiff voiced her opinion that she didn't want him to be penalized, so the lawsuit was withdrawn. Kim Hyun Joong personally met with the victim and gave her a sincere apology. After a few days of contemplation, she decided to withdraw the case with no conditions and no settlement."

With this, Kim Hyun Joong's legal worries have come to an end, but many suspect that the aftermath in terms of his career is far from over. What's your opinion on the matter?
