The agency of Koyote's Shinji (43, real name Lee Ji-sun) has once again denied the allegations surrounding her fiancé Moonwon (36, real name Park Sang-moon).
On the 8th, Koyote's agency JG Star stated, “We have been observing Moonwon's attitude towards Shinji for a long time. The two are in love just like any other couple and are supporting each other. Therefore, when we first heard from Shinji that she was planning to get married, we sincerely congratulated her more than anyone else.”
They continued, “Moonwon has acknowledged his shortcomings and promised to correct the issues pointed out by everyone. Shinji also expressed that through this incident, she feels a greater sense of responsibility and will carefully consider your words, repaying with trust and love. We ask for your understanding and warm support as we take the time needed.”
They also reiterated their explanation regarding several controversies surrounding Moonwon.
First, regarding the suspicion that Moonwon conducted real estate business without a real estate agent license, they confirmed that at the time, Moonwon was officially registered as a real estate assistant with the registration authority.
They further clarified, “Moonwon was surprised by the revealing comments stating he conducted business without a license and expressed through social media that he would take responsibility for any mistakes, but this does not mean he acknowledged any legal wrongdoing.”
Regarding allegations of bullying during his school years and military service, they stated, “After contacting classmates from middle and high school and juniors from military service, they all testified that these are false claims.”
They also addressed the allegations of divorce and infidelity. The agency stated, “Moonwon had an amicable divorce with his ex-wife. Upon reviewing the divorce agreement, it was confirmed that there were no unpleasant reasons during the process. The infidelity rumors have also been confirmed to be untrue,” adding, “His ex-wife has also conveyed her support, wishing for their happiness.”
Finally, the agency emphasized, “Since the news of their marriage became known, we have confirmed that many unverified falsehoods are being spread. We will do our best to protect our artist and may consider legal action against those who spread false information or defame.”
Earlier, on the 2nd, Shinji released a video on her YouTube channel ‘How Are You?!?’ introducing Moonwon to the Koyote members. In this video, Moonwon revealed his divorce and the existence of his daughter.
After the video became a hot topic, various allegations surrounding Moonwon emerged online, including rumors of premarital pregnancy with his ex-wife, fraudulent real estate dealings, and assault allegations against juniors during his military service.
In response to the controversy, Moonwon acknowledged on the 3rd that he had conducted business without a real estate agent license and that he married due to premarital pregnancy with his ex-wife, but denied all other allegations.
Meanwhile, Shinji and Moonwon are set to marry in the first half of next year.
