A netizen who was previously convicted for posting a malicious comment about Han Ye Seul has now been ruled not guilty.

On March 29, legal sources revealed that the Seoul Central District Court’s Criminal Division 5-2 (Presiding Judge Kim Yong Joong) overturned the conviction of netizen A, who was on trial for allegedly insulting Han Ye Seul in an online comment.

Back in July 2021, A left a comment on an article discussing rumors about Han Ye Seul’s boyfriend, who was accused of having ties to an entertainment bar.

Han Ye Seul took legal action, accusing A of defamation. The comment reportedly read, “This is why punks and delinquents don’t work out. Act your age. What are you doing at 40?”

At first, A was fined 300,000 KRW through a summary indictment. However, A challenged the ruling, arguing that the comment was not directly aimed at Han Ye Seul and did not contain offensive language strong enough to damage her reputation.

In the first trial, the Seoul Central District Court’s Criminal Division 16 (Presiding Judge Lee Kyung Sun) upheld the 300,000 KRW fine. But things changed during the appeal.

The second trial ruled in A’s favor, stating that the comment did not go beyond general criticism and was not excessively malicious or directly slanderous toward Han Ye Seul. As a result, the court overturned the previous ruling and found A not guilty.

Since the prosecution did not appeal further, the verdict is now final.

BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
