Person A, who raised allegations about actor Lee Yi Kyung’s private life, has once again issued a statement.
On the 9th, Person A posted on their personal account, “The reason I haven’t made a separate statement until now is because I have been cooperating with the Korean police investigation.”
They continued, “Korean laws and procedures are different from those in other countries, and I was also concerned about potential disadvantages that could affect me. After much consideration, I decided to cooperate with the investigation to prove that this incident is true.”
They added, “I have submitted all the evidence related to the case that I currently have. I have also provided information on my identity to the investigative authorities. Considering that I cannot visit Korea in person, I am continuing cooperation with the lead investigator remotely. The investigation has been ongoing for more than a month and is taking a considerable amount of time.”
Person A said, “Even if it takes time, I intend to cooperate faithfully until the end and await the results. Once the investigation is complete, I believe it will be clearly revealed through the authorities who the person involved in the provided materials is.” They added, “I sincerely hope the truth of this case is clearly uncovered, no matter how long it takes.”
Lee Yi Kyung was embroiled in controversy over his private life last year after allegations surfaced on online communities. Person A claimed to have exchanged vulgar conversations with Lee Yi Kyung and disclosed related details. In response, Lee Yi Kyung’s agency drew a line, stating they are preparing legal action against the damage caused by false information and malicious rumors.
Following the controversy, Lee Yi Kyung stepped down from the MBC entertainment show Hangout with Yoo and E Channel’s variety show Brave Detectives 4.
