In a press release today, Source Music addressed the swirling rumors surrounding LE SSERAFIM's Kim Chaewon, vehemently denying any involvement in a drug scandal.

The agency clarified that the idol is currently recovering from the aftereffects of a flu and is expected to resume her schedule on November 1st.

The statement follows recent speculations about several high-profile celebrities being implicated in a supposed "drug gate."

The reactions from those on the alleged list have been described as "absurd" by their respective agencies.

The mere association with such a controversy is acknowledged to have a significant impact on the public image of those involved, prompting a strong stance from the implicated celebrities.

Kim Chaewon, who had temporarily halted her activities due to Type A influenza, found herself at the center of unverified rumors circulating in the entertainment industry.

The artist, still focused on her recovery, was reportedly taken aback by her name being linked to the scandal.

Despite the police withholding the identities of the individuals being investigated, unconfirmed reports, primarily through messengers and social media, hinted at the involvement of a famous girl group member, suspected to be Kim Chaewon.

Upon learning of the rumors, Source Music repeatedly confirmed that the allegations were baseless and not applicable to Kim Chaewon.

Netizens took to various platforms to express their support for the idol:

Chaewon-ah, let's sue."

"Why are we writing articles about rumors now? Are people crazy?"

"People are losing their minds. LE SSERAFIM's haters seriously ㅡㅡ"

"Huh? She must've been so shocked."

"Wow, those trash making up rumors are real disgusting."

Fans were quick to defend Kim Chaewon, pointing out her continuous hard work over the past two years and expressing disbelief at the rumors.

Many criticized the spread of unverified information and the impact it can have on the well-being of the individuals involved.

As the entertainment industry grapples with the fallout from these rumors, the focus now shifts to the affected celebrities and their agencies as they navigate the aftermath of this scandal.
