Bonboo Entertainment said Wednesday that it had confirmed with Kwanghee’s manager that such allegations are false. The agency added that it is willing to talk to the person who first uploaded the post and hear the full story.
Shortly after the official statement was released, another anonymous post also claimed that Yoo was a school bully. The writer of the post called for Yoo to apologize to the victims.
The agency has yet to respond to the second post.
“Omniscient” was the first TV program featuring Kwanghee since he was discharged from his mandatory military service on Dec. 7.
