A 30-year-old man, identified as A, who was brought to trial for allegedly breaking into actress Nana's home and injuring Nana and her mother, has seen the online post he wrote on the day of his arrest become a key issue in the additional arguments.

The 1st Criminal Division of the Namyangju Branch of the Uijeongbu District Court held a trial on the 4th against A, who was prosecuted with detention for robbery and assault. Previously, the court had concluded arguments on the 19th of last month, but conducted additional arguments ahead of the sentencing.

A was brought to trial for allegedly breaking into Nana's home in Achon-dong, Guri City, Gyeonggi Province, last November, threatening Nana and her mother, and demanding property.

During the defendant's questioning last month, A admitted to breaking into the home for the purpose of theft but denied the robbery charges. He claimed he did not initially carry a weapon and argued that Nana and her mother were the ones who first brandished a weapon and issued threats.

A stated, "Nana's mother threatened my neck with a weapon, and my neck was stabbed," adding, "I hugged her to calm Nana's mother down and did not strangle her."

Actress Nana poses at a press screening and Q&A session for the film 'Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint' (directed by Kim Byung-woo) held at Seoul Megabox COEX on the afternoon of the 15th. The fantasy action film 'Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint,' which depicts the story of 'Kim Dokja,' the sole reader in a world where the fictional world of a novel serialized for over a decade became reality on the day the novel concluded, as he and his companions, including the protagonist 'Yoo Joonghyuk,' fight to survive in a destroyed world, is set to be released on the 23rd. /2025.07.15 /Photo=Lee Dong-hoon photoguy@

He continued, "I was asked why I did this, and I answered all questions about my name and age. My mother collapsed from a brain hemorrhage and is in the hospital. Since I was in a situation where I had to borrow 10 million won in fines I received in a previous trial from my mother, I ended up stealing items," explaining. He added, "Nana told me to bring a weapon and said she would report it to the police. We talked for about 30 minutes, and they immediately reported it to the police."

However, on this day, the Prosecution Service made the post A uploaded on the day of his arrest a key issue for additional arguments. According to the Prosecution Service, A posted an article on an online site on the day he was arrested on charges of robbery and assault. The post included content such as "What if an unauthorized intruder robber gets stabbed by a knife from the homeowner?" and "Possibility of substantive arrest warrant for attempted special robbery."

The post reportedly contained phrases such as "The homeowner and her daughter were awake and told me not to call the police," "Stabbed the robber's face and beat him indiscriminately with fists," and "Transported to emergency care." It also reportedly included content such as "The victim does not wish for punishment" and "If the police submit a substantive arrest warrant, will I accept it?"

The court asked, "Why did you post such content?" In response, A argued, "This was not a post written before the crime. It was written at the police detention center because we reached an agreement with the victim. At that time, we had already pre-negotiated, so I testified this way, but I wrote it because I was curious about how I would be punished. The answers to that have not been confirmed."

A repeated the same stance in his final statement. He said, "It is exactly the same as what I said in the previous trial." He added, "During the police investigation, the post was confirmed during the forensic process, and I explained why I wrote it. I posted the question because I was curious about what punishment I would receive if I did so; it was not a post written before the incident." He further added, "It was a post written after I spoke with the victims."

Additionally, A announced his intention to submit additional evidence to the court on this day. He said, "I am not sure if I can submit this, but I have obtained a medical opinion stating that I was cut more than 5 cm by a knife."

Regarding the meaning of the traces found on the knife, a debate continued between the Prosecution Service and the defense. The court stated, "While the defendant's DNA was confirmed on the blade and handle, no fingerprints were clearly observed on the sheath, making identification difficult. Based solely on the forensic results, it is difficult to prove the situation the defendant claims or the opposing situation." In response, A's side announced that they would submit their opinions in writing regarding the relevant content at a later date.

Meanwhile, A filed a counter-charge against Nana for attempted murder and other charges, claiming he was injured while Nana and her mother were subduing him. However, the police determined that Nana's actions constituted self-defense and decided not to prosecute. Consequently, Nana has filed a counter-charge against A for false accusation.

The sentencing trial for A, who was prosecuted with detention on charges of robbery and assault, will be held on the 9th.
