On the 24th, Cho Jung-sik released a selfie on his SNS account showing him working out at the gym.
Cho Jung-sik is "Its idyllic(?) days. I'm doing my lower body in my remaining house (calfing is natural so please understand...)", adding a witty comment, revealing his characteristic pleasant talk.
In the photo released, Cho Jung-sik was dressed in neat sportswear and appeared to be working out leisurely in front of the mirror. In particular, it was notable that he was seriously focusing on exercise with his bare feet and slippers off.
According to a report by Sherlock, a truth exploration group, on the 10th, the Board of Audit and Inspection discovered that instructor Cho Jung-sik purchased questions for the production of private mock tests from incumbent teachers.
Cho was sent without detention to the prosecution on the 17th of last month on charges of violating the anti-graft law and obstructing business.
In response, Cho Jung-sik, a legal representative for the instructor, argued that the contents related to Cho Jung-sik, which were recently reported by a media company, included parts that were different from the facts, which caused serious damage to the honor and social trust of the instructor.
The lecturer Cho Jung-sik "The lecturer Cho Jung-sik and our lawyers are confident that it is clear that all charges currently sent to the prosecution are not guilty, and the lecturer Cho Jung-sik has never paid KRW 58 million directly to the teacher in question." he said.
In addition, "The case is currently undergoing strict investigation procedures by the investigative agency, and the judgment on the facts will be clarified through the results of the investigation in the future."
He warned that "We are very sorry that content that is different from the current facts is being distributed indiscriminately without confirmation, and make it clear that we will take all possible legal measures in civil and criminal cases against spreading false information or defaming."
