[theqoo] YOO AH IN’S REP “FACING FATHER’S PASSING DURING TRIAL, GUILT WILL LAST A LIFETIME…” PLEADS FOR LENIENCY

On the morning of the 19th, the Seoul High Court’s Criminal Division 5 held the second appellate trial for Yoo Ah In and his acquaintance, Mr. Choi, who were charged with violating the Narcotics Control Act.

Yoo Ah In was sentenced to one year in prison during the first trial and was taken into custody immediately. His legal team filed an appeal, claiming factual errors and unfair sentencing.

1. Then he could’ve just not taken the drugs?

2. Just do your one year sentence

3. A thing that could’ve been avoided if only he led a good life

4. What a waste of his talent

5. If he truly believes he was unfilial to his father and regrets it, then no further leniency is necessary. The best course of action is to serve his sentence and take responsibility for his actions

6. Let’s not mix personal and judicial affairs

7. Exactly, imagine how heartbreaking it must have been for a father to see his son facing trial for drug-related crimes~~~

8. Everyone’s parents die eventually

9. Isn’t the real act of filial disrespect something he committed long before this…?

10. There’s no unfilial son like that
