A German national, identified only as “A,” who revealed private messages allegedly involving actor Lee Yi-kyung, says they are cooperating with Korean police.
On the 10th, A wrote on their social media, “Long time no see. I haven’t shared a separate statement because I’ve been assisting the Korean police investigation,” adding, “I have submitted all related evidence I possess, and I also provided documents confirming my identity to the authorities.”
Earlier, Lee Yi-kyung’s agency told SBS Entertainment News that it had filed a complaint “on the grounds that the KakaoTalk messages between Lee Yi-kyung and A do not actually exist and are fabricated,” adding that it would quickly identify A and seek strong punishment.
Regarding the police investigation, A said, “Since I cannot visit Korea in person, I’m continuing to cooperate remotely with the investigator in charge. The investigation has been ongoing for over a month and is taking considerable time,” and added, “Even if it takes time, I will fully cooperate with the police until the end and wait for the results. Once the investigation is complete, I believe the authorities will also clearly determine who the person in the materials is.” A has maintained that the KakaoTalk messages are genuine.
Previously, in November of last year, Lee posted the complaint against A on his social media, saying he visited the Seoul Gangnam Police Station to give his statement as the complainant and completed procedures to file charges for blackmail and for defamation by alleging false facts.
