Lee Jae Wook is taking a stand against rumors swirling around his relationship with aespa’s Karina by pursuing legal action. After going public with their love, whispers about Lee Jae Wook’s supposed “back-to-back relationship”—a quick switch from one relationship to another—have led to a decisive legal response.
On the 29th, Lee Jae Wook’s agency, C-JeS Studio, announced, “After articles about Lee Jae Wook’s private life surfaced, we earnestly requested the public to view the budding relationship between the two individuals with kindness. Despite our plea, we’ve come across online postings that defame the actor with false information and malicious intent.”
The statement continued, “This grave violation of personal rights will be met with a robust legal response, utilizing both civil and criminal actions through our attorneys. We’re actively monitoring the internet and ask our fans to aid in identifying any harmful content, which will be instrumental in our legal efforts.”
The couple acknowledged their relationship just two days prior, on the 27th, having grown closer after attending the Prada collection on January 14th. Rumors had it that they were smitten with each other from their first encounter. Nevertheless, online communities and social media platforms have since been rife with rumors that Lee Jae Wook had been involved with a popular actress A up until December last year and that his relationship with Karina was a rebound.
