00:07reconciled in the spirit of unity.
00:10They reached an agreement to withdraw their case during a meeting with an investigating

00:48on Monday.
00:50He said they had apologized to each other, and he had advised the customer to give up
00:55liquor if he could not control himself when he was drunk.
01:00The store owner, who is a certified taekwondo instructor, said he had once aspired to become
01:05a martial artist, but he decided to drop the idea and run his father's business.

01:17as no further action.
