Ahn Sung-Hyun, husband of singer and actress Sung Yu -ri, was granted the deposit following her sentence in a case of high-profile corruption corruption. The Soul High Court approved the causing request on June 11, a few months after Ahn was sentenced to four years and six months in prison.
The Court imposed A bailing amount of 50 million krw (about $ 36,000 USD) and has placed rigorous conditions for the release of Ahn. These include the ban on contacting other defendants or witnesses and the requirement to request the approval of the court before leaving the country.
Ahn was sentenced in December 2023 for receiving tens of billions of wins in bribes relating to the list of digital activities on an exchange of cryptocurrency. He was also ordered to renounce two luxury watches received during the illicit process.
Next to Ahn, the former CEO of Bithumb Holdings Lee Sang-Joon was sentenced to two years in prison and fined 50 million KRW, while the businessman Kang Jong-Hyun received a year and six months. Public ministries said that Ahn, in collusion with Kang, had deceived him in believing that a bustarella of 2 billion KRW was urgently necessary for a list, a statement that proved to be false.
Before the sentence, Sung Yu -ri publicly expressed his emotional tumult for Calvary, stating that his hopes that the truth was revealed. The Court’s guilt verdict, however, attracted the attention of the public not only to Ahn, but also to sing the Yu -ri.
Despite the controversy, Sung Yu -ri resumed his activities in the entertainment sector last month, four months after his husband’s prison, appearing in a shopping transmission at home.
