While the author's apology for falsely exposing actor Yoo Yeon-seok's personality turned out to be false, Yoo Yeon-seok's agency expressed its intention to take a strong legal action.
The writer, who first revealed Yoo Yeon-seok's personality on the 22nd, said, "The writer posted it out of jealousy. "I don't know if you're a fan of Yoo Yeon-seok or not, but I didn't write the apology," he added to the original article.
At a similar time, the apology, which said, "I wrote out of jealousy," was also revised, saying, "I am not the person who wrote Yoo Yeon-seok's personality." A netizen who manipulated the apology said, "I know that it is wrong to impersonate the writer. But people don't care about the truth. These days, even if you say you're suing, the issue of power abuse is provocative, so you tend to write pretending to be neutral. So I had no choice but to write."
Despite the writer's additional position and manipulation of the apology, an official from King Kong by Starship, Yoo Yeon-seok's agency, said, "The position remains unchanged. We will take legal action," he said.
First of all, King Kong by Starship said, "As a result of checking the facts with the actor, it was confirmed that the contents were completely groundless. A criminal complaint will be filed against the author of the post on charges of defamation by stating false facts. "We are currently hiring lawyers and taking strong legal action procedures," he said.
