Song Mino, Convicted of Dereliction of Duty, to Complete Remaining Military Service

Singer Song Mino, whose conviction for dereliction of duty while serving as a social public service worker has been finalized, will resume and complete his remaining military service.

The Military Manpower Administration stated that it is currently reviewing the service period and assignment location.

Previously, Song was sentenced to one year in prison with a two-year suspension in the first trial on charges of deserting his post for 102 days while serving as a social public service worker.

With neither the prosecution nor Song appealing the ruling from the first trial, the sentence was finalized as is.

Under the Military Service Act, if a suspended sentence is finalized for charges of deserting military service, an individual must serve an additional period equal to the number of days they were absent.

An official from the Military Manpower Administration explained that after reviewing the re-service period and assignment agency, a notice regarding the resumption of service will be issued to him.

Recently, Song took to social media to say that every day was filled with prolonged regret and that he was ashamed of his past irresponsible choices, adding that he will faithfully carry out the remaining procedures and obligations.
