Actor Lee Seo Han’s Second Apology For Alleged Illegal Video Only Adds More Fuel To The Fire
Recently, actor Lee Seo Han posted an allegedly illegally filmed video on his social media and gained much attention after fans realized it was taken in singer Bang Yedam’s music studio.
After the outpour of comments demanding an explanation, Lee Seo Han posted an apology, stating that it was a joke among friends.
The video that was uploaded yesterday was a joke between men. I am sorry to Yedam and his fans as it was filmed in his studio. I hope that people stop guessing at and misunderstanding the video in the future. I’m sorry to those who were affected after watching it. I’ll be more careful.
— Lee Seo Han
However, he was criticized for his short apology and posted a longer second apology on his Instagram.
“My explanation, which was short out of fear and feeling apologetic seems to have become controversial, so I am gathering the courage to post again.
My close friends and I like to visit Yedam’s studio and listen to music, watch movies, and drink together. Yesterday, five of us gathered and drank, and one drunk friend and Yedam went home after midnight.
The remaining friends and I had a bit more to drink and accidentally posted a staged video that’s common these days to my public account instead of my private one. It is not an illegally filmed video of any kind.
I sincerely apologize for my immature behavior as someone who dreams of becoming an actor. I apologize to those who were uncomfortable by the video and to the fans who support me. I will act carefully in the future. I apologize once again.”
— Lee Seo Han

I am so sorry for causing concern…
— Bang Yedam
