While A, who gained attention by exposing actor Hwang Jung-min's private life, was found guilty of stalking charges, she did not appear at the sentencing hearing.

On the 8th at 10 a.m., Judge Kim Yeong-a (Director) of Criminal Division 4 at Goyang Branch of Uijeongbu District Court conducted the sentencing hearing regarding A's violations of the Stalking Punishment Act and other charges.

A did not appear in court that day; only her lawyer and Hwang Jung-min's lawyer attended.

Previously, during the closing arguments held on the 11th of last month, A drew public attention by appearing in court. In particular, interest continued as A's real appearance was revealed for the first time, despite being known for her considerable beauty. At that time, A appeared at the courthouse wearing a dark gray hat and suit with a white mask, showing only long hair beneath the hat while covering most of her face.

The Prosecution Service had previously sought a fine of 10 million won against A during the closing arguments.

Unlike the closing arguments where A revealed her real appearance, she did not appear at this sentencing hearing.

The court's judgment was guilty. In the first instance, the court found A guilty of stalking charges and sentenced her to a fine of 6 million won. Additionally, the court ordered her to complete a 40-hour stalking treatment program.

The court determined that A was already aware that Hwang Jung-min did not wish to receive contact from her.

In particular, the court noted that A sent messages requesting contact with Hwang Jung-min's children or demanding communication ahead of news reports, concluding that she maintained contact despite Hwang Jung-min's unwillingness.

The frequency and content of the messages also served as key grounds for the guilty verdict. A sent dozens of messages on specific dates in a single day, and the court determined that such behavior itself could cause anxiety or fear in Hwang Jung-min. Despite A's argument that there were time intervals between contacts, the court stated that considering the frequency and content at each contact point, the requirements for continuity and repetition stipulated by the Stalking Punishment Act were satisfied.

Regarding sentencing reasons, the court stated: "The defendant showed little remorse and exhibited unfavorable post-crime circumstances such as pressuring the victim, which was considered an aggravating factor. However, the fact that the defendant had no prior criminal record was considered a mitigating factor."

A may appeal within seven days from the sentencing date if dissatisfied with the verdict. If an appeal is filed, the case will proceed to the second instance; otherwise, the first-instance judgment becomes final.

Meanwhile, until recently, A has been making claims through her SNS account suggesting a private relationship with Hwang Jung-min, who is married, and has partially released recorded phone calls and message contents exchanged between them.

However, Hwang Jung-min's side completely denied A's claims as "not factual." Sam Company, his agency, referred to A as "a suspect in stalking crimes who continuously harassed Hwang Jung-min" and announced that they had filed a criminal complaint against her.

According to Sam Company, the court imposed provisional measures such as no-contact orders against A on three separate occasions and issued a summary order for a 3 million won fine after acknowledging the stalking charges. However, A contested this and requested a formal trial.

Separately, A has filed a lawsuit seeking approximately 200 million won in damages against Hwang Jung-min. A claims she was offered a soju business venture by Hwang Jung-min but performed tasks such as designing proposals and writing screenplays without receiving proper compensation.

The court handling the case referred both parties to mediation proceedings in June to facilitate a settlement. However, since neither party appeared at the mediation session on the 14th of last month, the court made a mandatory mediation decision. Subsequently, both Hwang Jung-min's side and A filed objections to the mandatory mediation decision, leading the case to proceed to a full trial.
