The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency (SMPA) revealed on June 29 that they plan to summon Yoochun on June 30 at 6:30 p.m. and investigate him as a suspect in the sexual assualt case.
Yoochun's side had stated earlier that Yoochun will appear before the police on June 30 at 10 a.m. However, on June 29 at 6 p.m., about a day before Yoochun's scheduled appearance, Yoochun's side faxed a 'request for postponement of appearance' to the police which explained, "If [Yoochun] appears at 10 a.m., he could risk abandoning his post [in the military] so making an appearance [at 10 a.m.] will actually be difficult; thus, he will appear at 6:30 p.m. [on June 30] instead."
A police rep relayed, "We don't exactly know the code of conduct concerning public service regulations but it's possible that [Yoochun] was unable to receive an official notice or an off day from the district office which could result in abandonment of his post."

Once Yoochun appears before them on June 30 at 6:30 p.m., police plan to first investigate him as the assailant in the sexual assualt case. Police will then look into Yoochun's countersuit against his accusers for false charges and blackmail. Further, police will collect a sample from Yoochun's oral cavity and see if it matches the DNA from the undergarment the first accuser submitted.
A police rep added, "If Mr. Park consents, we plan to proceed with our investigations past midnight but considering his duties the following day, we will try not to hold him too long."
