According to the actor, he was not a part of the notorious chatroom and that he was part of a chatroom for a variety show.

As per the statement from my agency, I would like to again inform you that I was not a part of the chatroom. The chatroom that has implicated me in the scandal was for a 2016 JTBC variety show, Hit Maker. At the time, the chatroom was used to communicate our schedules and information regarding the program. Not only did we not write anything personal in the chatroom, but the chatroom was deleted after the variety show was canceled.

My family, acquaintances and I have been suffering from the misinformation for years. We ask that you stop the false speculation. We will respond to any further malicious comment with legal action.
