Actor Kim Hyun Joong has decided to file an appeal after his girlfriend was acquitted of the charges he filed against her.
Kim's agency Key East released a statement on June 24, stating, "we filed an appeal and a complaint immediately after Kim Hyun Joong's ex-girlfriend was acquitted on charges of defamation, false accusations, lawsuits based on lies, and intimidation."
In addition, Kim has changed his legal representation to a globally-recognized law firm, who have stated that they will "prove that Kim's ex-girlfriend is guilty of the charges against her."
His ex-girlfriend's lawyer also commented on the acquittal while criticizing Kim Hyun Joong, stating, "this decision came out on June 19th, but he has not given a heartfelt apology or reflected on his actions at all."
"I don't understand why he's tormenting the mother of his child like this," the lawyer added.
Meanwhile, Kim's ex-girlfriend's lawsuit against him is still in progress. Their next court date is scheduled for July 8.
