Later, in December 2015, Jung Joon-young was asked about the circumstances of prostitution and prostitution mediation when he attended drinking parties and parties with his acquaintances such as Seungri and Yoo In-seok, who were known as acquaintances of Seungri, in December 2015. Acknowledging the fact of the prostitution of the woman, he replied, “I was aware that a woman in prostitution was being sent through Mo Madame, an entertainment bar that Seungri knew.”
He then showed the intention to agree with the prosecution’s re-questioning, “Did you know that one million won worth of women in prostitution are being sent through this Madame?”
Jung Joon-young also received other questions about this from Seungri’s lawyer.
Seungri’s lawyer said to Jung Joon-young, “According to the investigation agency, I received a reply from Yoo In-seok,’I will send a gift’ from the state of returning home after having a drink at the time, and I know that this gift was a (prostitution) woman. How do you perceive this?”
In response, Jung Joon-young tilted his head a bit and replied cautiously, “I think you might have known this through the Kakao Talk conversation with former Club Arena MD and close close friend Kim Mo, but at this point, the memory seems unclear.”
Regarding the leak of illegal pictures of Seungri’s private chat room, the prosecution said, “In June 2016, he said he had seen three photos of a woman’s naked back in a private chat room including Seungri Jung Joon-young.” . I even mentioned that it is not the style of posting photos sent by others, but do you remember?” Jung Jun-young said, “I think so.”
Jung Jun-young was also asked about the suspicion of Seungri’s special violence teacher. He said, “I remembered it for a drink at the end of the year, and I went there, and I don’t remember exactly, but I know I went with a plan.”
Next, Jung Jun-young said, “The victim is (Seungri’s) school senior. “We settled in a place other than the room, but I remember the snarling, “Why did Seungri, my junior, take the room?” said, “I think Seungri was in a bad mood and angry at the time. It would have been because the victim tried to capture the power of victory.”
At the same time, Jung Jun-young said, “I remember having abusive speech in the parking lot. He also shouted,” he added, “I don’t know” to several questions.
On the other hand, on this day, Seungri showed a form of denying the allegations again even though CCTV related to his special assault teacher allegations were disclosed.
According to the military prosecution, Seungri got into a dispute with the victim A, who opened his room while drinking with an acquaintance at a bar in December 2015, and reported this to the group chat room where Yu In-seok, former president of Yuri Holdings, and others.
After that, it was reported that Yoo called a member of a gang member of a gang he had known, and the member of the group dragged A to the alley and threatened it.
