Following speculations linking actress Song Ha Yoon to allegations of school bullying, her agency, King Kong by Starship, addressed the issue on April 2 KST.
In their statement, the agency revealed their proactive approach upon learning of the allegations, stating, "Upon receiving the initial report and recognizing the gravity of the situation, we reached out to the informant to verify the facts." Despite their attempts to clarify the matter through communication, they did not receive any response from the informant.
The allegations arose from a report by JTBC's 'Crime Thief', implicating an actor referred to as 'S', known for portraying a villain in a recent drama. The report claimed that the informant, now residing in the United States, accused actor 'S' of assaulting them during their high school years in Seocho-gu, Seoul, in August 2004. The informant sought an apology from 'S', but the response indicated a potential discussion in Los Angeles.
In response, Song Ha Yoon's agency emphasized, "After verifying the facts with the actor in question, we have confirmed that there has been no contact with the informant and that the information provided is untrue." They urged against spreading unconfirmed facts and speculative reports regarding the matter, emphasizing the importance of verifying information before making assumptions.
