Singer Kim Ho-joong, who is about to be sentenced to the first trial on charges of drunk hit-and-run, recently submitted a third letter of apology.

The Seoul Central District Court will hold the first trial's sentencing date for Kim, who is suspected of driving danger tomorrow (13th).

Ahead of the sentence, Kim submitted a letter of apology to the court on the 28th of last month, the third after September 5 and the 16th of last month.

Earlier in late September, the prosecution demanded a three-and-a-half-year prison term for Kim at a final hearing.

At the time, Kim said in his closing statement that he was really sorry and reflected on the victim, and that he would try to live a life that did not repeat the same mistake.

Kim is accused of driving while drinking on the road in Gangnam, Seoul, and running away after bumping into a taxi in the opposite lane in May.

Kim, who denied driving under the influence of alcohol, admitted to the crime 10 days after the accident, but the prosecution excluded the charge of driving under the influence of alcohol because it was difficult to prove it because the blood alcohol level could not be measured at the time of driving.
