Former trainee and internet personality Han Seo-hee ignited controversy by publicly disclosing a KakaoTalk conversation she alleged to be with popular actor Ahn Hyo-seop. In response, the actor has initiated legal proceedings against Seo-hee, filing a lawsuit to address the unfortunate situation, citing charges of defamation, slander, and others.

According to the legal representation of the 바카라Business Proposal바카라 actor, this leaked conversation, shared by Seo-hee herself in a public chat room, has tarnished the renowned actor바카라s reputation. Additionally, the exchanged messages seem to imply a romantic and sexual connection between the two, suggesting a close relationship, wherein the internet personality invited him over to her hotel room in Gangnam. What made matters worse was that the former trainee posted a picture of her hotel stay the same day, which further fuelled speculations.

Even though Seo-hee asserted that the conversation was 바카라fabricated바카라 and not at all true, as per reports, an official complaint has been lodged with the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency by Hyo-seop on February 7. The complaint, filed by attorney Kim So-yeon from Lawfirm Will, states offenses including Violation of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (obscenity offense using communication media) and Violation of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, etc. (Defamation).

According to Money Control, an excerpt of the lawsuit reads, 바카라The conversation between the defendant (Han Seo-hee) and 바카라A바카라 suggests solicitation for sexual intercourse, and when the response was delayed, she threatened, 바카라Do you want to die?바카라 and 바카라A바카라 responded with 바카라Why are you talking so scary?바카라 and then blocked her,바카라 and further explained that she threatened him, and criticized, 바카라She then shared this conversation in an open chatroom where it could be seen by many, implying as if 바카라A바카라 and the defendant had been having sexual relations, thereby damaging 바카라A바카라s reputation.바카라

But this wouldn바카라t be the first time Han Seo-hee would be involved in a scandal like this.
