A press conference was held at a restaurant in Seongbuk-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 5th on the controversy over Yang Ik-joon's assault on his junior. Yang Ik-joon attended the press conference.
Yang Ik-jun "I hosted a small film workshop at this store where I work back in December 2023. It is a workshop for strangers who want to do a movie, but the movie scene is held. Since then, Choi, who sued me as one of the students, participated, and I often came in and out of the store where I work. I got to know Choi for about a year. Although I did not meet Choi often, I became involved in the work of one of the other students, so we talked from time to time. I heard the poverty of life that Choi owed nearly 100 million won. So, I had a lecture at the cultural center, and I suggested Choi to conduct the lecture. At that time, I suggested if it would be helpful for Choi's life, and Choi also accepted the proposal. Before the lecture, I bought Choi a meal and gave him various advice. After the lecture at the cultural center, he asked me about the tuition fee, and he was embarrassed to hear that the center would pay next month, so I sent the tuition fee to Choi with my own money first. Afterwards, Choi suggested that our store try a special lecture format, which was conducted by Choi, but that day, I was dead."
He said "There were quite a few customers because it was Friday at the time. Choi and I met and talked about the workshop at the store. At that time, the restaurant owner was looking at us, and there were about 12 customers including us. Everything related to the workshop was for Choi, who was in poor condition, but Choi said he would not accept tuition on this day. When I heard the story, I said 'Oh, you punk' and tapped my head on behalf of my frustration with about 15 sheets of paper. It was an act of regret that I remembered my hard past. At that time, the notepad used by Choi was a thin notepad of about 15 pages. The notepad is not wrinkled or damaged as you can see now. It was a thin piece of paper with the contents of discussion with Choi in it. That day, after I broke up with Choi, I responded to customers as usual, and Choi also talked with the boss at the end and said, "I went back with a smile."
Then "Three days have passed since it happened. I got a call at about 2:54 a.m. The phone call was Choi. I asked him why he called me so late, and he said, 'Why did you hit me?' 'What did I look like?' 'It was a disgrace to eat pasta at your store' He screamed at the phone for 19 minutes with his back screaming. At first, I thought it wasn't Choi. My body trembled at the sound. He was so angry that he apologized 'I felt sorry for you because you were holding a workshop for free'I'm sorry if you felt that way' he apologized 'I'm sorry' more than 30 times. After the 19-minute call ended, he hung up saying 'Go to sleep' in a very cold voice. It's the first time in my life that I've heard such a strong tone of verbal abuse. After that, 'I'm sorry. He also sent a message saying, 'I will sincerely reflect on myself. I tried to call again the next afternoon, but I didn't answer it, and I called a few times afterwards, but I was away. After that happened, I also stayed in Japan on a personal schedule, so I couldn't contact you. However, suddenly, I received a message from the police station that a complaint related to the assault was received. In a panic, I told the police that I would return home on January 25 this year and went to the police station on Tuesday, January 28 to fill out an affidavit. I didn't have a clue what was going on. On top of that, starting with the Yonhap News article, my assault articles began to spread online in earnest. I was also panicked by the endless uploaded articles."
Yang Ik-jun said "The movie he starred in was preparing to be released, and he was confused about what was going on at this time. And on the 13th of last month, Choi demonically edited and revealed the contents of the call with me in an interview with Yonhap News. It was an edited call. It was ridiculous. Twelve people were in the space. Would I have hit someone if I wasn't crazy? It is said that he hit a bundle of documents hard, and the complainant panicked without even opening his eyes, but it is not true.
Meanwhile, on February 10, the Seongbuk Police Station in Seoul booked Yang Ik-joon on charges of assault and revealed that it was investigating him. Yang Ik-jun was sued on December 13 last year for hitting him in the head with a bundle of paper and verbally abusing him, saying he did not like the way junior movie staff A spoke at his Seongbuk-gu restaurant. Seongbuk Police Station sent Yang Ik-jun, who was suspected of assault, to the Seoul Northern District Prosecutors' Office without detention.
