Charges against Kim Jang Hoon for illegally downloading a movie are dropped

Kim Jang Hoon
Remember when singer Kim Jang Hoon�revealed to the world that he potentially illegally downloaded the Hollywood movie 'Taken 3'? Well, apparently a random, conservative civic group charged Kim Jang Hoon for violating copyright infringement and took him to court. Luckily for Kim Jang Hoon, the prosecution decided to drop the case.�

On March 19, prosecutors announced that as the accuser had no legal right to charge Kim Jang Hoon, they would be dropping the case without trial. A representative explained their reasoning, saying, "As a rule, under the Copyright Act, those who directly have rights over the work in question can charge someone [of copyright]. Kim was charged not by the party directly involved in the work but by a third party."�


Kind of nosy of a group that has no relation to 'Taken 3' whatsoever to sue the guy, don't you think?
