what is my Galaxy S4 variant? HELP PLEASE!

I know its old mobile. I bought it used from my friend because of its good specs!
Now there is a problem.. :(
It is Samsung Galaxy S4. When I go to Settings>>About it says its "i9500" (so it is i9500 right?) but the problem is when I wanted to flash a custom recovery, I turned off this phone and opened the download menu (by pressing vol down+power+home button) and the download menu which opened was in CHINESE LANGUAGE :( . I press the Vol Up button and then odin menu opened saying this:
"
PRODUCT NAME: SHV-E300L
CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM
SYSTEM STATUS: CUSTOM
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1
AP SWREV: A2
"

Now it says that my device is "SHV-E300L"..... wat da ****!!
Now please tell me which one is it. because i searched a lot in google, youtube, xda and everysite that I could and found that I may have korean variant.... ! :(
BUT HERES ANOTHER PROBLEM.
• if I remove case & battery then i can see "GT-i9500" label in back of the phone!
• I have no chinese app in my stock rom. All apps were from samsung (yes knox is there.
• Everything is in English except Samsung Apps Store (because it is in chinese or korean... idk) and Download Mode...!!
• I have installed CWM Recovery of i9500 variant and it worked fine.
• I used tons of apps and every app says that it is i9500. Even IMEI.info says it is S4 i9500!
• CPU Z says that I have everything of GT-i9500 except CPU because my phone cpu is "PowerVR SGX544MP" while S4 i9500 CPU is "PowerVR SGX544MP3". Other specs are totally same (including Chipset: Exynos 5410 Octa,CPU: Quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A15 & quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7, 2GB Ram, 32GB internal mem, 1080p display etc. I have even attached pics which might help you!
• Genuine Galaxy App confirms my galaxy s4 is genuine and original (a famous playstore app to check fake and original galaxy phones)!
• Antutu Score was 10,000 first time and 20,133 second time.....
• Even antutu says it is GT-i9500

I am very very embrassed... Its first time I bought samsung mobile and it is so bad experience... I have used LG and China mobiles before... they don't have such problems!
Any help will be appreciated...
So my main question is " is it GT-i9500 or SHV-E300L" !!! :')
