NCT's Haechan and Johnny are currently facing serious accusations related to a prostitution scandal. In response to this, their agency, SM Entertainment, immediately provided an official clarification. After the official statement was released on Tuesday night, June 4, 2024, a woman who claimed to be involved in the scandal went live on Instagram.
The woman known as Rio spoke about the accusations involving two NCT members , as reported by Koreaboo on Wednesday, June 5, 2024. The expressions in the video were translated into various languages by a number of accounts on X (Twitter).
In one section, although the video caption originally read "Mark," the translator account corrected it and claimed it actually meant "Johnny." The edited statement read, "'Did you really do a five-way?' Many Korean idol fans listened, yes, all the comments were in Korean.
This is the first time I've received so many comments in Korean." "Not everything is untrue. Some of SM's statements are true. As for which parts are true and which are false, I want to tell you that you can find out for yourself. However, since the company denied it, you can just believe it," he said.
"'Did Johnny speak English or Korean during sex?' LOL. You're naughty LOL. I want to deny drug use and prostitution. 'You guys aren't the only ones making up rumors.' Okay, I know that, but don't you think we know more than you do? So, so what? LOL." "'You've shown us enough of your breasts, so show us the bottom too.'
I just wanted to show it to Korean idols. We didn't take any money from them. No money," she said. In response, SM Entertainment released an official statement regarding the prostitution and drug use rumors targeting NCT's Johnny and Haechan that emerged on Tuesday, June 4, 2024, and originated from Japan.
"Hello, this is SM Entertainment ," the agency said, as quoted by KBIZoom. "Currently, shocking and provocative rumors about Johnny and Haechan involving prostitution and drugs are being spread and reproduced online.
After verification, the rumors are completely untrue and are a criminal act that severely damages the artist's reputation." "Foundless rumors and malicious slander targeting our artists, including NCT and Kim Hee Chul, continue to spread indiscriminately.
We have gathered sufficient evidence from various posts regarding this. We will take legal action against the perpetrators without leniency or amicable settlement, regardless of their nationality."
