[Exclusive] The company that took photos of 2PM's Ok Taecyeon and his girlfriend apologizes... ”I didn't know she was a celebrity... I had no intention of exposing her”

WEDDING RUMORS have surfaced after 2PM member Ok Taecyeon posted a snapshot of himself with his girlfriend, but while he denies it, the company that took the photos has apologized.
According to an interview with Herald POP on the 6th, the photographer who took photos of Taecyeon and his girlfriend in Paris, France that day revealed details about Taecyeon's private life.
The person in question uploaded a blurred snapshot of Taecyeon and her girlfriend to the account that uploaded the photo in question, and apologized for the inaccuracy.
They posted a lengthy apology. The company said, "We are the company that took the photos in Paris in April 2024. A snapshot of Ok Taecyeon and his girlfriend was discovered yesterday. Regarding this,
"We received many messages from them. In fact, we conducted sessions last year without knowing who they were. It was not our intention to expose their lives."
He continued, "Until yesterday, I didn't know that they were Korean celebrities. They booked a session as ordinary people. We haven't had any contact with them other than the way we contact ordinary customers.
"There was no notice or instruction not to post the photos. We posted the photos as we normally would, without any special intention."
They also said, "The relevant photos were released in April of last year. We did not mention their names at all when we released the photos.
"It was simply a series of purely beautiful and inspirational photographs. However, we were truly surprised and shocked by this embarrassing situation."
The person in question also apologized to Taecyeon and his girlfriend, saying, "I sincerely apologize to Ok Taecyeon and his girlfriend.
It was never our intention to expose Rend. After we found out what had happened, we quickly made the photo private, but it had already been shared with multiple people. We are not sure who this photo was shared with.
"I have never sent a photo of myself, and I will not send one in the future," he said. Finally, the photographer said, "I welcome couples from all over the world every day. Since 2019, I have photographed more than 7,000 people in Paris.
"We would not have known they were celebrities unless they told us. All of this is an unusual situation in which we did not know who they were. We apologize to the public," they wrote.
Recently, online communities shared snapshots of Taecyeon posing in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris with his non-celebrity girlfriend of four years.
This photo sparked speculation that Taecyeon had got down on one knee, presented a ring and proposed marriage, which even escalated into WEDDING RUMORS. However, this was in April last year when Taecyeon married his girlfriend.
It was confirmed that the photo was taken to commemorate Taecyeon's birthday. On the 5th of this month, Taecyeon's management office 51K Entertainment told Herald POP, "There are no plans for marriage."
"I'm worried that my fans might have been surprised," she said. Meanwhile, Taecyeon is scheduled to hold a fan meeting in Korea on the 15th and 16th.
She is currently filming 2TV's new TV series, "I Stole the Lead Role's First Time."
