1. [+665, -7] Habitual gambling, intermediation of pr*stitution, sharing of illegal content... so many terrible crimes and yet he was only sentenced to 1 year and 6 months. What's the difference between him and Jo Soo Bin?

2. [+300, -3] I don't get this. He committed all these crimes, then went through all his trials in the army, and now that he's sentenced, he gets to get out of his service to go serve in jail instead. This is ridiculous. He should still be obligated to fulfill the rest of his army service before being transferred to prison.

3. [+260, -0] The power of money. All those crimes and he didn't even get 16 years but 1 year and 6 months. I wonder when our judges are going to wake up and start giving out real sentences? This is pathetic.

4. [+252, -4] He's guilty for all 9 charges but all he's getting is 1 year and 6 months?

5. [+117, -1] So little for how many crimes he's committed!!!!

6. [+25, -0] Everything he's done would blow Jo Joo Bin out of the waters and yet Jo Joo Bin got 42 years and Seungri's only getting 1 year 6 months? Furthermore, because he's still in army service, they're cutting his service short so he can go to prison instead. Seungri has every right in the world to tweet 'I love South Korea' if he wants.

7. [+11, -0] The judge is just as worse as him, they're all trash

8. [+10, -0] Such a weak sentence, what makes him any different than Jo Joo Bin?

9. [+8, -0] 1 year 6 months... if he was not a celebrity, would the same sentence be given?

10. [+7, -0] The judge is a mess... just get rid of all of the judges and leave the trials to be determined by AI

1. [+774, -4] Only?

2. [+708, -7] Jung Jun Young got sentenced to 5 years and is sitting in jail right now. Seungri is being charged with way more crimes so why is he only being sentenced to this? Seungri's business partner Park Han Byul's husband also got off on probation and is going on restaurant tours around Jeju Island, it's ridiculous that he gets to live life just fine after all of these crimes. What a bitter reality.

3. [+398, -4] I remember there was someone who stole ramen a few years ago and was sentenced to 3 years 6 months... and Seungri's only getting 1 year 6 months? If this was the US, he would've at least been sentenced to over 100 years;;

4. [+58, -0] There was a man in his fifties who stole bread out of hunger and was sentenced to 2 years 6 months. How are we supposed to accept this sentencing? What kind of law firm was able to get him these results? 

5. [+50, -1] The law is not fair to all

1. [+832, -12] That's way too little, isn't it? Plus he gets a forced discharge.

2. [+640, -7] Jo Joo Bin got 42 years. Jung Jun Young got 5 years. Seungri's only getting 1 year 6 months? For worse crimes? There's a problem with this ruling.

3. [+176, -2] This is only going to encourage more sex crimes. How are we a country?

4. [+125, -3] You don't mean 16 years????

5. [+37, -0] So you can just sell women for 1 year 6 months now? This is so pathetic..

1. [+440] So he basically got to enjoy all that he wanted for a prison sentence about the length of army service ㅋㅋ

2. [+340] Only?

3. [+237] Such a weak sentence

4. [+169] That's it?

5. [+138] Only 1 year 6 months?

6. [+117] A man who stole $10 worth of kimchi from a goshiwon got sentenced to 6 months in prison........ and Seungri's only getting 1 year 6 months???

7. [+152] A man who stole kimchi from a goshiwon got sentenced to 6 months

8. [+21] Surely you meant to write 160 months?

9. [+90] This was such a huge celebrity scandal and yet the judge has no problem doling out such a light sentence. No wonder these crimes keep getting repeated. Just looking at the list of his crimes would let anyone know that this sentence is ridiculous.

10. [+17] Hul...
