WINNER member Song Min-ho will not appear at the trial of A, who served as his supervisor during his period of service as a social service agent.

On the 20th, Seoul Western District Court's Criminal Division No. 10 held the fourth court session for A, who is accused of violating the Military Service Act, and will proceed with questioning the defendant.

Unless there are special circumstances, the court plans to conclude arguments by the end of this day.

Previously, Song Min-ho appeared as a witness at the third trial held on the 14th of last month and completely denied allegations of conspiring with A to violate the Military Service Act.

Song Min-ho is accused of unauthorized absence from his workplace, including missing more than 100 days while working as a social service agent at a facility in Mapo-gu from March 2023 to December of the following year, while A is accused of neglecting supervision despite being aware of Song's poor work performance.

Accordingly, in April, the Prosecution Service sought a one-year and six-month prison sentence for Song Min-ho, who admitted to all charges.

In his final statement, Song said, "I would like to offer my apologies." He added, "As a young person of the Republic of Korea, I failed to faithfully fulfill my duty of national defense until the end. I am suffering from bipolar disorder and panic disorder, and I am well aware that this illness should never be used as an excuse or alibi. I only feel deep regret for my choices. I am currently undergoing intensive treatment. If I recover my health and am given another opportunity to serve, I want to complete it faithfully until the end."
