The results of the appeal of the former attorney who arranged a meeting with the incumbent prosecutor who received alcohol from former Star Mobility Chairman Kim Bong-hyun, who was cited as the main culprit of the
Lime incident, will be released today (8th).

Prosecutor Na was put on trial in July 2019 on charges of receiving more than 1 million won from former chairman Kim at an entertainment establishment in Cheongdam-dong, Seoul.
