Media outlet 'Dispatch', popular for its paparazzi photos, has released an article in response to actor Lee Byung Hun's recent appearance on 'Healing Camp'.

They began by stating that they were never actually going to reveal these photos, but since Lee Byung Hun opened up the topic again, they'll go ahead and revive them off their database.

Lee Byung Hun had clarified several past scandals and rumors through his appearance on 'Healing Camp', one of which was his past scandal with actress Yoon Eun Hye. The actor commented on the show, "Yoon Eun Hye attended my birthday party. She and some of the hoobaes said they were leaving, so I went out to bid them goodbye, but got captured by the paparazzi. Those pictures made it look as if the relationship rumor was true."

It was this statement and the photos used on the show that rubbed Dispatch the wrong way and prompted them to release a few of the previously unseen photos almost two years after they were taken in 2011.

They explained that these photos were never taken by them in an attempt to start rumors between the actor and the actress, but that they were actually taken when Dispatch had been putting together a magazine in Japan with a topic about Hallyu stars celebrating their birthday. One of the Hallyu stars they followed to take pictures of was Lee Byung Hun as his birthday had been around that time period.

Dispatch also revealed that the previous photos used to backup the rumors back then were not published by them in Korea as their photos had been taken by other media outlets, and Dispatch had to ask them to delete them as the photos were not meant to go out.

They also added that Lee Byung Hun is not being truthful about a portion of his statement. "This scene shown in the pictures, used by 'Healing Camp' without permission, is not of Lee Byung Hun saying goodbye to Yoon Eun Hye. This is them getting ready to go onto their 3rd round. In reality, they had moved to a different location and continued their party."

They also commented on why they decided to not release photos in the past by saying, "The problem was how much the photos showed. Lee Byung Hun and Song Seung Hun among others were seen suggesting a 3rd round to Yoon Eun Hye and the other actresses. They were basically saying 'Let's have one more drink'. This was different from the birthday party we had imaged. And seeing photos from celebrities' drinking places was a bit too much. That's why we didn't send out the photos. We also can't reveal the full original now either. That's why we didn't use most of the photos and just picked out the more subtle ones and included them in the Dispatch's Japanese magazine."

Dispatch brought things to a close as they commented, "However, Lee Byung Hun said 'there is no fire without smoke' as he 'healed' himself. So who then fanned that fire? The pictures that we didn't reveal for their sake for over two years. So is taking those pictures without permission and making excuses as if these rumors were falsely created... is that healing?"
