Lee Yikyung, who recently suffered greatly from rumors surrounding his private life, made a guest appearance on 'Hangout with Yoo.'
On the October 25 broadcast of MBC 'Hangout with You,' Yoo Jaesuk, Lee Yikyung, Joo Woojae, Haha, Ha Dongkyun, and Heo Kyunghwan attended the show's 'Comma Club: Autumn Gathering.' Yoo Jaesuk, who played the role of the club president that day, welcomed Haha, Joo Woojae, and Lee Yikyung who arrived late.
As the cast began role-playing, Lee Yikyung introduced his nickname as 'IMF,' saying, "I was disheartened because things were bad during the IMF crisis." He continued, "I want to renew myself and make up for that," which prompted Yoo Jaesuk and Haha to encourage him, saying "Stand tall! Straighten your back and shout out loud." However, despite the encouragement, Lee Yikyung only pretended to shout in a very small voice, drawing laughter.
Yoo Jaesuk emphasized, "We're here to eat something delicious to welcome autumn. While online connection and solidarity are good, we should avoid digging too deeply into each other's private lives."
Recently, Lee Yikyung suffered damages due to rumors about his private life. A German netizen identified as 'A' shared alleged text messages and photos claiming they were from conversations with Lee Yikyung. Lee Yikyung's agency responded by stating, “We are preparing legal action against the spread of false information and malicious rumors.”
Later, A admitted, "As I kept posting and using AI-generated photos, I gradually started to believe it myself," confessing that all of the content she shared had been fabricated using AI.
[+254][-4] That was recorded before the whole incident happened.
[+196][-2] You trashy journalists... Stop writing so many fictional stories. Yesterday's broadcast was exactly what was previewed last week. That means, this was filmed way before the controversy happened. Stop trying to link it to that issue.
[+165][-3] You're not a reporter, you're a novelistㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[+18][-16] Someone told that German woman to 'use an emoji in your next post if you are being threatened or in a dangerous situation,' and then the German woman randomly used a heart emoji in her next postㅋㅋ
[+16][-2] If you're really innocent, just sue. It was fabricated using AI, wasn't it?
