Bad news surrounds Nam Joo Hyuk. Recently, someone claiming to attend the same middle and high school as Nam Joo Hyuk reported to the media that he was a victim of bullying by the actor for six years.
On June 20, 2022, Nam Joo Hyuk's agency Management SOOP firmly denied the accusations and stated that they would take strict legal action against the whistleblower and anonymous source.
Launching from Soompi on Tuesday (21/6/22), the agency said that all relevant information was not one bit true.
"We also express our regret for the unilateral reports from the media that did not check the truth even once with the agency or actor before publishing the article," the agency said.
The agency will immediately request a correction report from the Press Arbitration Commission (PAC) against the media outlet responsible for Nam Joo Hyuk's reputation and will file criminal charges against the reporter of the media outlet who first reported it as well as an anonymous source.
The agency has also asked legal counsel for this case to proceed with legal action.
“The actor and his family are the ones who experience the greatest pain due to cryptic gossip and rumors that are thoughtless and not confirmed in the slightest. No matter how the agency or actor expresses an official statement denying the reckless article that takes a stand and doesn't even check the truth and only relies on baseless rumors online, the current state of affairs leads to the actor being branded with red letters, which the agency really can't help but feel. distressed and regrettable," the agency said.
“We sincerely ask you not to spread unfounded rumors or make speculative reports. With continuous monitoring, we will respond decisively through various angles. Thank you," he said again. /celebrities.id
