The picture is of Hyunseung and TWICE’s Chaeryoung. The picture shows Hyunseung looking up at a sticker filter of Chaeryoung. Written on the picture is a derogative term that alludes to pornography.

YOUNITE’s agency, Brand New Music, released a statement denying Hyunseung took any part in creating the picture. The label stated the picture was edited maliciously and that they would be taking legal action.

The full translation of the statement is below.

Hello,

We have found that there is a maliciously edited photo of one of our artists on social media.

We will be pursuing legal action against those who maliciously spread slander, personally attack, and engage in creating false rumors. Please report these cases to our email bnmusic2011@gmail.com.

We thank our fans for their love and support and ask for their active cooperation.
