More problems have been found on his twitter @yjyjyj0530 (now deleted). Viewers found a reply of him responding to a 16 year old who was prostituting herself on Twitter for 50,000 KRW (approximately 44 USD), responding that he would take her.
However, someone claiming to be Jang Yong Joon's friend from the same crew claimed that the exchange happened only because Jang Yong Joon was going with the flow of his friends. His friends had responded to the tweets in similar ways while, and Jang Yong Joon had done the same while joking with his friends. His friend claimed he was going through hard times, and this was making it worse, and asked the original poster to take the post down.
