Accuser A refutes Hwang Jung-min's claim that his business proposal was merely an "icebreaker" or a joke.

On the 11th, via social media, A wrote, "Now that it has been made public, are you now claiming it was just an icebreaker?" and added, "Originally, the criminal complaint stated that I made a passing remark in jest during our first meeting and then forgot about it."

A further criticized, "Despite repeatedly assigning tasks and confirming intentions via phone calls, do you still maintain the same stance? You never informed me that the business deal had fallen through, nor did you ever mention an apology or compensation. For a year and a half, you kept offering different excuses each time."

A emphasized that the business proposal was the starting point of the conflict. "If you claim it was just a joke and mentioned only once, you must provide evidence," A stated. "I have actually submitted relevant conversations and documents. Regardless of whether the business was genuinely pursued or merely a joke, you must acknowledge that I continued to be assigned tasks without being informed of its status. Whether the main point was 'use your energy and come over' under the guise of business, it is undeniable that business was used as an excuse."

A also revealed, "Immediately after returning to Korea, at the airport, I first mentioned Yang Jo-jang-gwa (Director) while promising to call back later, and you yourself said you were 'serious.' That evening, I sent a message with an address in Apgujeong and specified next Tuesday at 6 p.m., and I have submitted a screenshot of that."

A also shared conversations with acquaintances. In these exchanges, A stated that after Hwang Jung-min returned from Romania, he called and asked, "Are you okay? You're not forcing this on me, are you?" and added, "You will never be harmed by this." A further wrote, "He said we must meet soon because I'll be in Haenam for filming starting the week after next and won't have time to meet. We need to prepare a briefing urgently."

A also claimed that the other party told him he was separated from his spouse, proposed doing business together, and then made a sexual proposal. "He never informed me that the business had been halted or that he had resumed living with his spouse," A pointed out. "In such circumstances, it is hard to accept that I am being accused of harassment for asking about the business progress or sending messages at night as before."

A added, "The other party also sent a message around 1 a.m. Shouldn't he explain his situation so I can understand that things have changed? Expecting him to figure out changes in my personal life without any explanation is unreasonable."

Addressing the claim that the other party found A "burdensome," A countered, "He always tries to back out." A stated, "In such a short time, the one who brought up sexual topics, business proposals, and details about our marital relationship was actually the burden on me. I only followed instructions, yet it makes no sense that I am now considered burdensome simply for working hard at those tasks."

Finally, A said, "Then why did you assign me work in the first place?" He explained that he found himself unable to express his own feelings of burden at the time.

Meanwhile, a final trial regarding Accuser A, who was sued by actor Hwang Jung-min for violations of the Anti-Stalking Act and other charges, is scheduled for today. Earlier, after Hwang filed a complaint against A in August last year on grounds including violation of the Anti-Stalking Act, the court issued a summary order imposing a fine of 3 million won on A in February. However, since A contested the ruling and requested a formal trial, the first-instance proceedings are currently ongoing.
