Park Yoochun's Lawyers Step Down + Mediation For Damages Comes To A Standstill

Park Yoochun’s legal representatives have resigned.

Previously, the court ordered Park Yoochun and an individual known as “S” to settle their suit for damages through a mandatory mediation surrounding a potential compensation of 100 million won (approximately $84,900).

However, YTN reported that the document on the arbitration decision is currently not being forwarded to Park Yoochun. All four lawyers in charge of defending Park Yoochun resigned on June 17. When this happens, the statement should be sent directly to Park Yoochun, but it could not delivered because he was not home to receive it.

Following the issue, the legal representative of “S” posted on social media, “The court’s decision for a mediation cannot be serviced by public notice unlike an announcement of the beginning of a trial or a sentence. Anyone who is looking at this post, please inform [Park Yoochun] so that he can take a look at the document and state his position to the court about it.”

No new lawyers have been appointed for Park Yoochun since the resignation of his former lawyers. It is unknown why they stepped down, but one of them is known to have close ties with JYJ.

Park Yoochun was also recently investigated for possible ties to the police for treating a police officer to dinner and drinks in 2016 when he was being investigated for sexual assault.
