Actor Nam Joo-hyuk’s agency announced a strong response to allegations of school violence raised by a media outlet.
On the afternoon of the 20th, Nam Joo-hyuk’s agency, Management Soop, said, “After confirming the facts with the actor regarding the first news article, we confirmed that all of the contents were not true at all. Also, I am sorry for the unilateral report by the media that did not even go through a single fact-check with the agency or the actors until this article was published.”
A representative of the agency said, “We plan to promptly apply for correction information to the Media Arbitration Committee against the media, taking responsibility for seriously damaging the actor’s reputation due to this false report.” We will file criminal charges against them.”
“Actors and their families suffer the most from vague gossip rumors that are reckless and have not been confirmed at all. Regarding the current situation in which the scarlet letter stigma is engraved even if the agency or the actor reveals the official position that the agency or the actor reveals the official position that it is unfounded about the excessively ‘or not’ type of articles that rely only on baseless online rumors and without any confirmation of the facts. There is really no way to hide my tragic and sad feelings,” he added.
The management company said, “We will take strict legal responsibility for all acts of posting one-sided claims online (SNS, YouTube) without a clear fact-checking process.” policy was announced.
