1. [+696] Don't you guys think it's unfair that rumors are being spread of things he didn't say or do? None of us know the truth yet and we've only listened to the FD's side of the story so the actor is defending himself right now. Just because he's a public figure shouldn't mean he should be expected to shoulder everything. He apologized for what he admitted was wrong and I think it's within his right to defend himself on rumors that aren't true too. Not sure why people are telling him to just shut up and reflect when you don't know the entire story either;;
2. [+239] It's biased to think the FD is always the weaker party. The actors can just as well be the weaker party too.
3. [+268] It's not too late to delay judgment until both stories have been heard.. ㅜㅜ our country is too hasty with jumping the gun. Especially against celebrities ㅜㅡ You all saw what happened with the Kim Sun Ho scandal. Let's please not blow up false narratives. I'm not his fan but I do feel bad for him right now 😢
4. [+310] He's trying to tell the truth and people are just hating for no reason
5. [+169] He's correcting the false rumors, why are people accusing him of making excuses? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I hope the next time any of you apologize, you get accused of making excuses right back~
6. [+124] He's someone I personally know and I can attest that he has great character and that he's a great person all around. I hope people don't misunderstand him.
7. [+86] He's not making excuses, he's clarifying what happened. Why should he be expected to apologize for the things he didn't do? tsk tsk. To me, it sounds like he's telling the truth!
8. [+53] Seems like all of this can be resolved by just releasing the CCTV and Katalk conversations. His statement feels a lot more truthful than what the FD wrote
9. [+26] He's stuck between a rock and a hard place... where you did do some wrongs that you need to apologize for no matter how mad you are.. but there are some things that you just want to correct because they got the story wrong...
10. [+6] I think it's good that he's not choosing to just apologize and stay quiet. There are people who abuse the fact that celebrities are public figures and it's good that he's choosing to defend himself instead~ If he never said anything, the public would've just assumed that he was power tripping indeed!
