Jung Joon Young is finally returning to the limelight after going on hiatus late last year. His leave from the entertainment business was the result of a sex scandal where he was accused of sexual assault bu his former girlfriend.
The singer was acquitted and the ex-girlfriend admitted that she lied. She then dropped the charges and submitted petitions to the court to clear Joon Young's name from any allegations.
