Singer Yoo Seung-jun (Steve Seung-jun Yu and 46) repeatedly argued that the cancellation of issuance of visas is against the principle.
On the afternoon of the 21st, the 5th Administrative Division of the Seoul Administrative Court (Senior Judge Jung Sang-kyu) held a hearing date for the lawsuit filed by Yoo Seung-jun against the consulate general of Los Angeles (LA) and the lawsuit filed against the court for canceling the disposition of issuing visas.
It was scheduled to end Judgment on March 14, but resumed the defense because of the request of the LA Consulate General and the change of the court.
Both sides still held their existing positions on the day, arguing that the refusal to issue a visa was unfair, saying that "Yoo Seung-jun's lawyer violates the principle of proportionality and equality."
On the other hand, the LA Consulate General said, "Yoo Seung-jun's purpose of entering the country is to be employed." "The value of the public interest that should be held as a duty of defense is higher than the Yoo Seung-jun profit."
Yoo Seung-jun left the country in January 2002 for overseas performances and acquired American citizenship.
It was pointed out that he gave up his Korean nationality to avoid military service, and the sea was prohibited from entering.
Since then, Yoo Seung-jun filed a lawsuit in October 2015 when the LA Consulate General refused to issue a visa for overseas Koreans (F-4), but he was awarded a 2020 victory Judgment.
However, the government refused to issue a visa again, and Yoo Seung-jun also filed a lawsuit again.
Meanwhile, the first sentence of the re-suit of the refusal to issue a visa for Yoo Seung-jun will be issued on the 28th of next month.
