According to the legal community on August 10th, Kim Tae Kyun, chief judge of the Seoul Central District Court, sentenced A (26) to one year in prison and 2 years of probation for causing injuries, making special threats, and invasion of housing. He was also ordered 1 year of probation and 80 hours of community service.
In particular, around October of last year, A was founđ to have broken into victim B’s house via the veranda, when B, who was his girlfriend at the time, refused to meet with him. As B tried to escape, A wrapped his hands around B’s neck and dragged her to the inside of the living, threatening her with a knife from the kitchen and forcing B to continue meeting with him.
However, when A refused the request, B estranged her and screamed. When a neighbor rang B’s doorbell, A held up the knife and forced B to stay silent.
“The victim must have suffered great shock and pain, and she has not yet forgiven the accused,” the court said regarding the case.
