Basketball player Heo Woong's ex-lover A raised suspicions about Heo Woong's data manipulation.

Roh Jong-eon, a lawyer at a law firm who is in charge of A's legal representation, distributed an official statement on the 8th titled 「Expression of position on the suspicion of manipulating data related to Heo Woong's private life disclosure」.

Lawyer Roh said "I would like to explain this because there are allegations that the data was fabricated in connection with several allegations of privacy against his ex-lover A."

Mr. A pointed out that Heo Woong posted an investigation report calling it a dispatch report, but only captured photos and wrote the title 'Dispatch Report' while intentionally excluding the actual contents of the article. In response, Roh fabricated false data into credible data from media outlets. According to the official investigation data of the investigative agency, A's job is confirmed as an artist. "

In addition, referring to the 'Caracula Media' video containing Huh Woong's explanation, Huh Woong released KakaoTalk and subtitles, saying 'Mr. A bragging about receiving a black card from a man to his friend. However, the caller of Kakao Talk is not A's ex-lover, but B's kakaotalk with his friend. "In other words, the above Kakao Talk was not A's kakaotalk at all, but even though it was B's kakaotalk, I nailed it as A's kakaotalk. Nevertheless, he claimed that he intentionally put the caption "Mr. A," which boasted to his friend that he was using a man's black card.

In addition, "Our position remains unchanged in strict response to the second offense. In this regard, B, an informant of an old friend of his ex-lover A who changes his words maliciously and spreads false information, will be sued for defamation of false information," he said, hinting at a legal response.

Meanwhile, Heo Woong filed a complaint with the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul on charges of violating the law on attempted blackmail, intimidation, and punishment of stalking crimes and violating the law on drug management through his legal representative on the 27th. The two first met in 2018 with the introduction of an acquaintance and developed into a relationship, but they broke up in December 2021 due to differences in personality and opposition from both parents.

Heo Woong's side demanded about 300 million won for the background of the complaint. He blackmailed and threatened to reveal Heo Woong's private life to the media, SNS, YouTube, and his club if he did not comply with his request. Mr. A stalked Heo Woong several times after the breakup. On the other hand, Mr. A "Both abortions were forced by Heo Woong and there was no marriage proposal.""He unilaterally demanded sexual intercourse during pregnancy and during termination of pregnancy." countered.
