(Yoo Yeon Seok) feels regretful about the situation, and as we stated earlier, we will proceed with pressing criminal charges for defamation against the person responsible for spreading the rumors.
6-7 years ago, Yoo Yeon Seok lived in an officetel, not an apartment, as the netizen alleges. Also, the actor never took part in riding (bicycles) with his acquaintances, and logistically speaking, the apartment is next to a large intersection, so it isn’t a place where a party of people can ride their bicycles.
