He explained that he normally takes photos with celebrities who visit his shop, but that Park Bo Young wasn’t interested in doing so.

When celebrities visit my shop, I’m honored. So I usually take photos with them and get their autograph. But Park Bo Young didn’t want to take a photo, so I just got her autograph. I was sad that I couldn’t get a photo of her, so I captured a CCTV footage and put it up with her autograph.

But the café owner clarified that he was not the one who made it go viral online.

I think a customer of mine took a photo of it and spread it online. I didn’t know it would escalate like this. I feel really bad. After the incident, I took down all of the celebrity photos from my wall.
