Ms. Song begged innocence and sobbed, "I followed him to the bathroom because we didn't have much skinship beforehand. It's true that I couldn't resist because Yoochun talked to me as if he was going to give me 20,000,000 KRW (~ 17,329 USD) but I never asked for money afterward. Please listen to me. Please trust me."
She added, "I'm a victim of sexual assault. I am so upset and angry."
All of the 7 jurors ruled Ms. Song innocent. The foreman also stated, "It is hard to accept that Ms. Song has defamed Park's character or made false charges only based on the evidence provided by the police."
Back in January, another woman who accused Yoochun of sexual assault was found guilty of false charges. She was sentenced 2 years of penal servitude.
