Dispatch Reports that Kim Hyun Joong is Being Investigated for Assault and Battery on His Girlfriend

Goodness is this turning out to be a majorly bad year for Asian entertainers all around, and this week alone I’m writing about the third alleged or confirmed breaking of the law by an A-list entertainer. Can I go back to writing about happy rainbow dating news? Oh right, there is that “confirmation” this week that Sulli of f(x) is dating Choiza of Dynamic Duo, which is as much newsworthy as my neighbor going in for a colonoscopy since everyone knew they were dating already. On the heels of this week’s drug busts and tax evasion, this latest shocker probably takes the cake if its true, and probably takes the cake even if it turns out not to be true since the mere allegation is already reputation damaging to the extreme. Dispatch is exclusively reporting that a young lady referred to as “A” has filed a police report against singer-actor Kim Hyun Joong for assault and battery stemming from a series of domestic violence incidents.

She is claiming to be Kim Hyun Joong’s girlfriend and dated him since 2012 and is filing the police report to press charges against him for a violent beat down that occurred in May in his residence. When she confronted him about cheating on her with another woman, she alleges that he struck her to the extent that she needed to be hospitalized for two weeks with injuries to the chest, legs, arms, and rear end. They then reconciled but she learned of another cheating incident in July and alleges that this time he beat her so severely that he fractured her rib and she needed a six-week hospitalization to recover. She has submitted to the police evidence of her dating relationship with Kim Hyun Joong as well as the hospital reports from both hospitalizations to corroborate her allegations. The police have reportedly opened an investigation and will bring him in for an interview.


This is breaking news so Kim Hyun Joong’s agency Keyeast has released a statement that it’s looking into this matter and will respond accordingly after reaching Kim Hyun Joong who is currently on an Asian tour to promote his latest mini-album. Above are all pictures from this past week at Kim Hyun Joong’s sold out Japan tour dates.  HOLY FUCK is all I have to say for now about the allegations. O___O If it’s true then his career is basically over and I doubt there is any goodwill on earth from even the most stalwart fangirls for a man who beats up a woman. If it’s not true then his reputation is still heavily shot and he might want dive into military service immediately and use the two years to let everything blow over. This is crazy shocking and I’ve seen plenty of shocking celebrity allegations of misconduct and/or lawbreaking.

  • Wow thats seriously crazy but I agree his career is basically over even if its not true he wont be able to work for awhile which is too bad since he did a good job on his last drama but if its true its good if he doesnt work....he is actually the reason I became obsessed with asian dramas I saw him said man he is hot and ended up never watching american tv again haha

    • Well, i just hope the police will look into it, do a meticulous and thorough investigation, to find whatever truth. If the allegation's true, his talents would be wasted ... he's such a good artist. i love his songs, i enjoy his drama. He kinda "saved" me with his presence.

    • I don't understand why would his career be over even if its not true like if dispatch said bullshit then they are GODs and if its true then he is a jerk and a jackass and she is more jackass then he is because she was such a stupid lngirl after a fantacy and taking it for the first time rather the second too she is stupid and deserved TT he second because she shut up on the first and he needs to be jailed
      Oh I believe she is telling the truth CU's it seems she has evidence and not so dummy " one should learn from park shi ho "

    • I was just watching We Got Married also, I hope it is not true. It would break my heart and effect a lot of people that adore him, :(

      • I know right, the main image I have of him is from WGM and X-Man many years ago. He always seemed shy, quiet, polite etc. But man, this is Park Shi Hoo all over again.

        Hoping it's not true but if it is, he deserves what's coming to him.

  • WoW I did not expect that from him...guess you never really know w/ celebrities.But yea his career is pretty much over if it's true.I feel sad though because playful kiss was my first K-drama don't know if I can Re-watch it the same again.

  • If this is true its so disappointing. I guess you can never tell how someone is behind closed doors.

    • Someone got beaten up and hospitalized for 6 weeks and some people around here are actually saying 'Yay' for not seeing the accused in a kdrama anymore.

      Seriously? Disgusting.

      • Get off your phony moral high horse.Thousands of women all over the world DIE or end up in the hospitals every single day because of domestic violence, but since we are talking about Kim Hyun Joong's girlfriend I should write specifically about her? I feel EQUALLY sorry for all victims of abuse, not just the ones that are related to celebrities. And yes, I am happy that this talentless scum has been exposed. High profile cases bring awareness to existic social issues.

      • So, since she didn't die, it isn't that serious? And you'd rather celebrate that some talentless actor isn't going to get roles instead of just conveying your support to the victim? I'd rather be riding my phony high horse than be bothered wasting another second replying to people like you.

      • I think he/she just making a joke. She/he just didn't expect that someone would be sensitive about it.

        Well, this issue is kinda serious and just fresh out of the oven

  • Omg!!! Wow!!! If true, I'd say his career is over for good. I can't believe it. I am not a fan of his but really??? If not true, still super damaging... But I can't believe that she would make these kinds of allegations if not some truth. I guess we will have to see what the authorities turn up.

    It's true, you just don't know how anyone is behind closed doors.

  • Goodbye.

    In light of this news, his interview after his drama ended where he shared his thoughts on love and dating and protecting his gf by never going public make him seem like a real psychopath. During that time he had already beat his girlfriend. Sickening.

      • Er no, it's not hearsay. It's currently an allegation. Hearsay is an out-of-court statement introduced to prove the truth of the matter asserted therein, with a dozen or so exceptions before it can be admitted as evidence in court.

      • whatever...an allegation...the point being that it's not even proven...so why are people believing it's true?

  • Woah...if this is true...I can't even imagine the craziness that will go down with his fans and the rest of the kdrama/kpop netizenry....also even though I'm not a big fan of his, I think its very difficult to make him out to be a beater from his offscreen persona from interviews and stuff...even though I've never considered him talented I've always thought he was a decent sort...but you never know...also it seems wierd that Keyeast wouldn't immediately deny the claims...that seems iffy too

  • After PSH's scandal last year, I don't think anything can truly shock me anymore. There's no way this isn't true, and once proven, KHJ needs to bid his career farewell. He can't get up from something so severe as repeatedly assaulting your girlfriend. And he shouldn't be able to anyway.

    • If there is anything PSH's scandal taught me was that everything blows over. He's already making movies and public appearances... as for beatings here in the states we have a 'shining' example in Chris rihanna-beating Brown of how girlfriend beating is overlooked by fans after a short while.
      I am going to state that if it does turn out to be true I'll never be able to rewatch his WGM episodes with my girl crush hwangbo. I hope its not true but if it is then I'm never going to be a rationalizer like so many fans tend to be sayong Oppa didn't mean it, etc. Broken bones is not something that can happen without intent.

    • how can you say that "there's no way this isn't true"? you are psycho or have no common sense? where's your proof? let's see the evidence 1st before judging someone is guilty...

      • Surely injuries that need hospitalisation for 6 weeks are enough evidence? Or do you think she faked that?

        'Oppa didn't mean it/do it' syndrome happening even here, I'm not surprised.

      • It's sure as hell I'm not the psycho who's ignoring the hospitalizations report that has been submitted to the police. Evidence? It's right there. Now of course for fangirls who like to blind themselves, that doesn't count. Like pigsnout, even I'm not surprised. But disgusted, yea I sure am.

      • that's not necessarily evidence...so if i go to the hospital for a broken arm and state that my friend did it...that means my friend did it?

      • also i'm not a fan-girl...i don't buy his music, go to any of his concerts/fan meetings, or watch his dramas except for 'Boys Over Flowers'...all i'm saying is that just because she accused him and went to the hospital for injuries, doesn't mean that he did it. That is all I'm saying.

      • I agree with you, its irritating how people jump right away to condem him, without having any real info (aka police reports and statements). People should remember that media often twist words or blow things out of proportion; and more over its not hard even to fake med reports either if you try set up a person seriously;
        And I am not taking sides. If he did it - he deserves all he will get, but he should be proven guilty first. But its so sad that at first sign of doubt so called fans are ready to beleive in the worst.

      • I think everyone should shut up until real proof comes out. I can go to the hospital and have a report to and say my boyfriend hurt me but for real he didn't. Kim Hyun Joong is a great singer and actor. I am married and I play around and we fight I can see someone getting hurt if you push them. It happens so lets wait to see what the police say.
