'Street Man Fighter' dancer Young J responded to allegations he had a sexual relationship with a minor.

In previous reports, 32-year-old Young J was rumored to have had sexual relations with underage dancer 'A' from 'Street Woman Fighter 2', which led to her having an abortion. On April 3, the Just Jerk dancer met with media outlets to respond to the allegations.

Young J denied having relations with a minor and stated they only entered a relationship after she became of legal age. He expressed, "It's true I'm dating 'A.' But we started our relationship after she became an adult. Because I was worried about the age difference between us, we only started dating after getting permission from 'A's parents."

He further stated he and 'A' are considering marriage. Young J said, "We're discussing getting married with both of our families. I'd like to say that we're in a serious relationship, and this is not a fling."

What are your thoughts on the issue?

For me the fact that he had to wait until she became an adult before he started the relationship is the issue that means he had known her when she was legally a child and if he had to wait until the day she became a legal adult to start a relationship in addition to asking her parents there is an issue there. No matter how I see it it is still grooming and that poor girl is a victim. Considering people on his team are leaving he knows its wrong. What if the legal age was 14 would that make it ok just because she is of age. I also think the parents are really odd to be giving permission for a man who is at least 12 years older than their fresh barely adult child to date. Also if he was worried about the age gap then that is probably an indicator that this relationship shouldn't be happening.

If he's telling the truth, why would she lie to her friends? The timeline/series of events is off. But I believe he wouldn't say this in the news if he didn't have the young woman's parents' consent.


Circling back to the dance crew: Did he make decisions unilaterally based on his feelings for the girl as the guys accused him? I think he did lie to his crew. But as haerin97 said, he's taking responsibility and trying to make it right.


Now I'm going to to take a peek at 'Street Woman Fighter Season 2.' I wasn't interested previously or something about the promo turned me off - I don't remember.
