Singer Kim Gun-mo, charged with sexual assault, was sent to the prosecution in charge of prosecution.

The Gangnam Police Station in Seoul said today (25th) that it had handed the charges of sexual assault to Kim and handed it over to the prosecution in charge of prosecution.

Kim was accused of sexually assaulting woman A in a bar in Nonhyeon-dong, Gangnam-gu, in August 2016.

In December of last year, Mr. A filed a complaint with the Seoul Central Prosecutor's Office through lawyer Kang Yong-seok.

Kim attended Gangnam Police Station on the 15th of last month and was investigated for about 12 hours.

In response to Mr. A's claim, Kim's agency, Geonseong Planning, sued Mr. A in January for alleged defamation under the Information and Communication Network Act, and the police are investigating it.
