According to an earlier report, Yoo Yeon Seok lived at an offictel from April 2016 to July 2018 instead of an apartment, as alleged by the netizen who accused the actor of belittling his father. An officetel refers to an office building that has been renovated into a work-and-live apartment complex. Officetels are usually smaller than apartments and, in Korea, are not considered apartments.

On March 24, a security guard who had worked at Yoon Seok Yeol’s former officetel spoke with a media outlet. In the interview with the media outlet, the security guard pointed out a few inconsistencies in the allegation. In the original allegation, the netizen claims that his father saw the actor with his friends stretching by their bicycles, but the security guard revealed that the bicycle station is not viewable from the security guard’s station.
The bicycle station is on the second floor basement of the underground parking lot. It’s about 30 meters away from the security guard’s office and is not viewable from there. Yoo Yeon Seok lived in complex 2, and residents from that complex use their respective elevators, so I rarely saw Yoo Yeon Seok.

The security guard then defended the actor by revealing that had there been an incident in which the actor had belittled a security guard, there was no way he wouldn’t know about it.
If something like that (Yoo Yeon Seok belittling a security guard) occurred, there is no way that I, who is head of security, wouldn’t have known about it. I have no relationship with Yoo Yeon Seok. If his behavior wasn’t good, I wouldn’t have stepped up (to talk to the media) and would have thought to myself, ‘I knew something like this would happen to him,’ but (Yoo Yeon Seok) really isn’t like that.

Previously, Yoo Yeon Seok was alleged to have belittled a security guard working at his apartment while riding his bike with his friends. Yoo Yeon Seok has since denied the allegations and revealed that at the time of the alleged incident, the actor didn’t live in an apartment.
