Korean Actor Accused Of Allegedly Patronizing Adult Establishment After Girlfriend Posts Receipts
A shocking post has been circulating across Korean online communities, claiming that a musical actor allegedly frequented an adult entertainment venue. Screenshots allegedly from the actor’s rumored girlfriend’s Instagram account kickstarted the suspicions. She uploaded what seemed to be receipts containing exorbitant amounts of money. Unlike most store receipts, these were also handwritten, a trait that many associate with adult establishments. In the background were also drinking glasses and lighters.

Not only that, there were girls’ names written next to the sums of money, further fueling speculations.

“Dahye x1 ₩1.60 million KRW (about $1,120 USD).
[redacted] Min x2 ₩3.20 million KRW (about $2,240 USD).
Yejin x2 ₩3.20 million KRW (about $2,240 USD).”
After the incident exploded online, his agency released a statement to deny the matter.
“Hello, this is HJ Culture.
