According to what the prosecution has revealed, the above mentioned names as well as other popular stars like Kwon Min Joong, Yoon Eun Hye, Go Ho Kyung, and more are not connected to the case.


The prosecution revealed that 12 (3 men, 9 women) have been indicted without detention for charges of either prostitution or setting up the meetings between the females and wealthy men. They are said to be made up of the broker who arranged the meetings, celebrity hopefuls, and those who deal in the business of prostitution.The broker is a man in his thirties who was a stylist, and the other two males are businessmen.


There were 8 celebrities, including 2 actresses, who were initially investigated in addition to these 12, but they were cleared of suspicion.


Regarding the female celebrities who have become victims of malicious rumors due to gossip, a prosecution rep stated, "As it is a shame to see that victims have come about due to rumors floating around through the means of SNS, we have quickly processed the investigation so that the victims of rumors will not be further hurt and can quickly start repairing the harm done to them."


"Although it is true that a portion of the females involved have appeared in dramas or broadcasts, it's hard to classify them as celebrities... It is rather hard to decide whether it's fit to label a person who made an appearance once on a cableTV program 3 years ago as a celebrity," the rep continued.


The rep also mentioned, "There were two actresses who were part of the investigation, but they were cleared. Regarding another one individual, we cannot confirm anything for you... However, the celebrities mentioned on SNS are not involved with this investigation"


Despite the prosecution speaking up to confirm that the names that have been gossiped about are not related to the matter, Lee Da Hae, Shinji, Solbi, Jo Hye Ryun, and more have revealed that they will continue forward with their legal action against those who spread rumors about them.
