"WINNER" member Song Min-ho explained why Manager A, who served as his supervising officer during his alternative service, was assigned to oversee him.

On the 20th, the Seoul Western District Court's Criminal Division No. 10 held the fourth trial for A, who is accused of violating the Military Service Act, and conducted an interrogation of the defendant.

On that day, A stated regarding the reason for being assigned to manage Song Min-ho: "Around March 23, 2023, Mr. Song Min-ho was first assigned to our workplace. At that time, I had contracted COVID-19 and was resting at home. However, when I came to work, no one wanted to manage Song Min-ho, so the manager in charge at the time designated me for this role."

According to A, other employees refused to manage celebrities because they found it too burdensome. A also claimed that while managing a celebrity was very burdensome for him as well, he ended up being assigned to oversee Song Min-ho due to promotion issues within the organization where he was working at the time.

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

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

Last month, Song Min-ho appeared as a witness at the third trial for A's alleged violation of the Military Service Act. At that time, Song Min-ho completely denied any conspiracy with A regarding the Military Service Act violation, while also claiming he had received an opinion from his attending physician stating, "I can no longer serve in the military," and further asserted that the attending physician had originally advised against military service altogether.
