Trot singer Kim Ho Joong's appeal trial was unsuccessful, and he will serve his 2-year and 6-month prison sentence for charges related to dangerous driving and hit-and-run. The CEO and head director of his agency were also convicted for evidence destruction. Kim Ho Joong expressed regret during the trial, admitting his mistakes and apologizing to the victim. Despite appeals from both Kim and the prosecution, the court affirmed the original sentence as reasonable based on the circumstances and evidence presented in the case.
