"Are you going to prove that it's an abyss?"

After the revelation of Choi Min-hwan's ex-wife Yul-hee, Lee Hong-ki posted on the fan communication platform Weverse on the 25th, saying, "It was their personal lives, and this is what happened. You have to admit you did something wrong and bow your head and apologize. Still, we should not all believe too easily."



Then "I have to protect it again. You have to endure it. That's who we are. "What I can do is move forward by being hit by rocks," he said, covering Choi Min-hwan.

However, one fan later said, `The issue is not fact-checking the contents of the disclosure, but whether someone as old as their son and daughter's father made a sex purchase, and the evidence for that is overflowing. It is said that they have already launched an internal investigation into prostitution, but I don't know what else to wait for. Please note that no one wants to support the path ahead of the person who stopped by like eating at a prostitution business."



In response, Lee Hong-ki "What if it's not sex trafficking and it's not a prostitution store?? Can you take responsibility for what you're saying??," he said, leaving a comment that seemed to side with Choi Min-hwan again. Criticism was infested by the direct cover for not speaking without direct evidence of prostitution.

Netizens are saying "Hongki, please stay still. I'm so disappointed Are you playing shield after listening to all the recordings? If it's for the fans, please stay still. If you don't want to go down to him, are you going to prove yourself that it's an abyss?" "I've been a fan for only 10 years since I was in school, and it's not that I don't understand your brother's behavior at all. He may want to be like a family who spent half his life and protect it, but it was an emotional response. Even if it is not prostitution, it is also morally wrong. If it's a problem between a couple, the older brother is a third party after all," he wrote, expressing disappointment, comfort, and comfort.

On the other hand, "I don't think I can ignore the words of a member who is like a family member who has been with me for decades. Everyone makes mistakes. There are also a number of concerns such as, "Does one person have to die to be quiet?"
