South Korean WINNER idol Mino may have to serve an additional 102 days of military service if a court ruling is finalized, after receiving a suspended prison sentence for violating the country's Military Service Act. According to an official from the Military Manpower Administration, Mino would have to fulfill the number of days he missed without authorization if the court's decision becomes final.
The Seoul Western District Court sentenced Mino, whose legal name is Song Min-ho, to one year in prison, which is suspended for two years, following his guilty verdict for the violation. The ruling remains un-finalized as it originated from the first trial. Mino's former supervisor, who was also tried alongside him, received a 10-month prison term, also suspended for two years.
Prosecutors stated that Mino was absent without authorization for 102 out of roughly 430 required workdays. If the ruling is upheld, Mino will have to complete the remaining days of military service.
