Ever since being charged for evading his draft five times, many things have changed for MC Mong. What has MC Mong been doing for the past 2 weeks?
? Living in seclusion, "I never took out my healthy teeth", a teary appeal
As MC Mong put a halt to all activities, it has been reported that he has been staying at home. A representative of his entertainment company IS EnterMedia Group stated, "MC Mong has not yet come out of his house."
MC Mong has also been calling those close to him, letting out his frustration on the matter. One associate revealed, "MC Mong has always had a close friendship with Lee Soo Gun. MC Mong called him and said "This is so hard. I never took out my healthy teeth, I don't know why I'm in this situation. I don't know what to do." Lee Soo Gun is also worrying a lot for him."
? Entertainment company is 'refraining from responding'
MC Mong was dropped from the 'HaHaMong Show' and '1N2D', and stopped all broadcast schedules. Fortunately, '1N2D' has stated that if MC Mong is found non-guilty, they will allow for MC Mong's comeback on the show. However in truth, his celebrity life is currently in emergency mode.
All the while, his entertainment company has not yet responded aggressively to the controversy. Why? A representative stated, "If we make the slightest mistake, our image may turn into a company that goes against authorities, which is why we're not responding aggressively." Since military-related issues are Korea's most sensitive matters, making a sloppy response may result in a bigger issue, and therefore they will wait until the results of an accurate investigation are revealed. However they emphasized, "His teeth extraction was never an intention, and he did not try to avoid the military."
? The progress of the investigation?
The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency stated, "We have currently completed everything we could do in our power, and will soon send everything over to the prosecution authorities. Once they have completed the investigation, the settlement about MC Mong will be made."
Then to what extent was the investigation undertaken? The investigation began from square one. A celebrity associate revealed, "The team who was originally responsible for the investigation failed to maintain secrecy, and therefore the investigation was shifted onto a new team. Since the whole investigation team was changed over, the investigation itself had to begin all over again as well."
If the investigation results come to in favor of MC Mong, there is an opportunity for him to return as a regular member on 1N2D. However, if he is guilty, a problem for MC Mong arises. A representative of the 'Korea Military Man Power Administration' stated, "If he is found guilty, his level 5 status is canceled and will undergo a re-evaluation. However even if he receives a result between levels 1-3, because of his age, MC Mong will be appointed as a public service personnel. If he receives imprisonment, he will serve the military after the completion of his prison term, and if he is put on probation, he will be serving the military immediately."
