Nam Joo Hyuk's former classmate who accused him of bullying releases ambiguous video as evidence

AKP STAFF

Earlier last year, actor Nam Joo Hyuk was accused of school bullying, to which his agency quickly denied and took immediate legal action towards those who had spread malicious news that were claimed to be untrue. 

However, a year since that incident, it was revealed that Joo Hyuk had met his former classmate who accused him of bullying to seek resolution, but could not come to an agreement due to differing recollection of the incidents that occured. 

On April 26, said former classmate, 'A' released an ambiguous video through famous entertainment YouTuber and journalist Lee Jin Ho

In the released video, 'A' (in white) is sparring in the classroom with a male student. The other students who were audiences instructed him to "kick," yet 'A' fell while kicking in the air, causing an eruption of laughter around.

In the YouTube video where the clip was released, Lee Jin Ho also briefly talked about what 'A' had told him. It was said that 'A' was unwilling to be part of this sparring but if he doesn't show any special skills or any actions that would make them laugh, it will never end, which was why he ended up kicking the air and falling on his own. 'A' claims that Joo Hyuk's voice could be heard in the background as part of the students who cornered him to fight and were egging him on.

On the other hand, Lee Jin Ho also notes that this is an ambiguous video as the video was dark and Joo Hyuk's face was not directly captured. In addition to that, Joo Hyuk had previously claimed that he was not at the sparring site.


In addition to that Joo Hyuk's agency had also stated that these claims were "groundless," as the actor took to broadcast interviews with his friends expressing his position that he felt wronged about the alleged school violence.

The said video can be seen below. What do you think of this situation?

He's not even in the video and honestly all I saw was a guy falling and his classmates laughing. This doesn't seem a bullying episode either.

Are you trying to end Nam Joo Hyuk career over this lame "proof"?
