Earlier, Kim Hyun Joong's agency Key East Entertainment spoke up about the assault charges against the actor by alleged girlfriend 'A', confirming that she was indeed his girlfriend, admitting that things got physical between the two during a heated argument but claiming there was no recurring physical abuse, and explaining that her broken ribs were a result of a playful encounter between the two.  The agency also said the two knew each other since 2012, but started dating only a few months ago.

Meanwhile, Dispatch jumped in, raising some suspicion and speculation about the case by saying some things did not seem to match up between the two stories.  The media outlet revealed both pictures and text exchanges between the two to support their argument against Key East's statement.

1. How long have they been dating?

Key East claimed that the two only started dating recently; however, Dispatch's findings were different.

The first point Dispatch made was that Key East Entertainment claimed the two knew each other since 2012, but only started dating a few months ago, whereas A claimed the two started their relationship in April, 2012.  Dispatch got ahold of a picture the two took together in April, 2012 (taken inside Kim Hyun Joong's home in Cheongdamdong), as well as one from March, 2014 (two on a date in a restaurant while he was filming for 'Generation of Youth').

In August, 2013, A is also said to have been seen at the wedding of Kim Hyun Joong's older brother. Even earlier this year, the two enjoyed dates at a golf course, on Jeju Island, and more. 

There were also text exchanges. A's side revealed, "Even in 2013, he continuously sent text messages like, 'I miss you,' 'I love you,' 'Let's live together,' etc.  How is 2013 'a few recent months'?"

A's side also revealed that in August, 2014, Kim Hyun Joong sent her a closure text saying, "I'm sorry.  I hope you rediscover the two years that you had lost.  This is how I truly feel."

Dispatch ends this point, concluding that Key East's explanation was lacking as it seemed the two were a couple for at the very least a year.

2. What does it mean by things got physical?

Dispatch revealed A's claim that she confronted him about another woman and wanted to break up to which he replied by demanding why she kept suspecting him before using his hands and feet to hit her.

Here, more text messages were revealed.  A wrote, "My whole body is covered in bruises...It hurts.  I'm so upset about this.  I was beaten up to the point I was barely alive. Why do I need to be hit like this?"  

Dispatch says Kim Hyun Joong replied, "I'm sorry," "Let's end this now," "Because of you, I feel like I saw a side to myself I hadn't seen in a few years."  After his concert in Japan, he sent an apology text: "I don't know why I did that when I was going to feel sorry in less than a day.  I hope the bruises and pain get better quickly.  I'm truly sorry."

3. Was it a one time occurrence or did it happen repeatedly?

While Key East only acknowledged one incident of a physical fight on May 30, A said it started at the end of May and actually ran until the end of July.  According to the complaint lodged at the Songpa Police Station, during those two months, there were more than three rounds of physical, mental, and psychological assault.  

Dispatch concludes that Kim Hyun Joong only seems to be counting the time when he threw actual punches, while A also counts the times he used his force on her. 

4. Rib injury, when did it occur and did it happen because of 'playing around'?

A denied that her rib injuries occurred from when the two were playing around; rather, she claimed that she was beaten when she argued with him about his continuous women problems.

Key East had stated in their statement that the rib injury actually took place when they were 'playing around' from a time before this 'one time' physical fight. However, it turns out the rib injury came about 50 days after their physical fight according to hospital records. Therefore, Dispatch says, Key East is wrong when they said it was from an earlier time when they were playing.
