According to Channel A on the 20th, the CCTV footage obtained by Channel A shows Kim Ho-jung's manager changing into Kim's coat and leaving the scene in Kim's accident vehicle around 12:40 AM on the 10th.
Immediately after the accident, Kim Ho-jung stopped his car about 200 meters away in an alley and made a phone call to someone. Later, the manager and other agency staff arrived at the scene. About 50 minutes later, the manager was seen wearing Kim Ho-jung's clothes. Kim Ho-jung's manager appeared at the police station about two hours after the accident and falsely confessed to causing the hit-and-run accident.
Meanwhile, Kim Ho-jung, who had denied the drunk driving allegations until now, admitted to drunk driving through his agency and fan cafe the day before. However, it is known that he plans to proceed with the 'World Union Orchestra Super Classic' performance. The concert has attracted attention as a stage where he performs alongside active members of four of the world's top orchestras: the Vienna Philharmonic, Berlin Philharmonic, New York Philharmonic, and Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra (RCO). The performance is scheduled to be held over two days, on the 23rd and 24th, at the KSPO Dome in Seoul.
