Previously, in February 2019, Kim John Hoon was sued by former lover Mr. A while appearing on TV Chosun's "Taste of Love", a real romance program with ordinary people. Not only did he force A to have an abortion, but Kim John Hoon, who found out about her pregnancy, said he would give her a house, but they cut off contact.
In response to this, Kim John Hoon's management office Creative Hikaru clarified the position saying, "If the child is confirmed to be his child, he has expressed his intention several times to take full responsibility for all aspects of raising her child. However, due to differences of opinion, smooth dialogue did not take place," and, "If it is determined that there are false facts related to this matter, we will take all legal measures.'
After that, A withdrew the lawsuit, but in June 2020, after giving birth to her son, she filed a lawsuit claiming acknowledgment of the child she gave birth to against Kim John Hoon. In April last year, the Seoul Family Court issued a ruling recognizing that the child was Kim John Hoon's child, and the ruling became final in May of the same year.
Meanwhile, on the 18th, Kim John Hoon accused A of 100 million won for disseminating false information that A threatened her pregnancy several times, cutting off contact, and forcing her to have an abortion., but the fact that the lawsuit was lost was known a little too late.
The Court did not accept Kim John Hoon's claim on the grounds that the evidence presented alone was not sufficient. At the same time, it was determined that A's act of posting a fetus and a pregnancy test, referring to Kim John Hoon, and making comments was also illegal.
On the 9th of this month, a revealing video related to Choi Jong Won was posted on the YouTube channel "Lee JINHO, the secretary of the entertainment industry." B, a man in his 40s who provided the information, claimed that Choi Jong-won was the adulterer who had a secret meeting with his wife, C, and destroyed the family.
As soon as the affair came to light, Choi Jong Won released an official statement the next day. Regarding C, he explained, "I'm not a former lover, and I've been close to my neighbor's sister since I was young, even with my family."
He added, "My name appeared on KakaoTalk for the first time in a long time, and I was happy, so I contacted him to ask about his safety. We ate together two or three times, but I mainly talked about my family, work, and children. When we talked about his safety, there was absolutely nothing inappropriate like what was written in the article."
He continued, "The informant has harassed me several times by verbally abusing and threatening me, placing the blame on me, and even sending me an official document asking me to pay." I am planning to take legal action against the damage I suffered."
However, on the following day, on the 11th, Mr. B said through a South Korean media outlet, "The place where we drank alone, rather than eating, was Choi Jong-won's house, and we continued to meet after that." We won the compensation lawsuit and will donate the entire amount of the damages received to a support group for single-parent families."
On the other hand, Kim John Hoon and Choi Jong Won debuted as UN in 2000 and released hit songs such as Lifetime, Wave, Gift, Miracle, and To Her, gaining popularity. They disbanded in September 2005, but appeared on JTBC "Sugar Man" in 2016, presenting memories to many people and collecting hot topics.
