Mr. A said that he went to New Zealand to study English at the age of 16, and said, “After going to school for a week or so quietly, one day, the first child I saw in class came in, and that was Cho Byeong-gyu.” Mr. A said, “I was going to go out after class, but a little boy (Cho Byeong-gyu) who had shortened and dyed his pants talked in a way that was confusing,” he said. “So I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t feeling very good.” He then said, “But that must have been bad,” and claimed that he was surrounded by about 30 Koreans during the lunch break and was cursed. In addition, Mr. A said, “I only told the facts, and if it is different from this, I promise to take responsibility for all damages for damages to Cho Byeong-gyu.”
