Kim Seon Ho's agency releases statement after actor was tagged in a forced abortion rumor

Kim Seon Ho's agency Salt Entertainment issued a statement after the actor was tagged in a rumor involving the Korean actor.

A report on Soompi said a netizen uploaded on the Korean online community Nate Pann Monday a post entitled "I am disclosing actor K’s two-faced and shameless true nature.”

The writer of the post, hiding under the name "A," said she dated the actor "K" until they broke up four months ago. 

She called the actor "piece of trash without the slightest conscience or sense of guilt."

According to the Soompi report, A mentioned getting pregnant with K's child, and the actor forcing her into having an abortion.

“He made me abort my precious baby on the false promise of marriage, and he forced me to make the sacrifice because he was sensitive when working on a project and because he was a star," A wrote in the post.

"I am going through severe psychological and physical trauma due to this,” she added.

According to A, the actor allegedly told her, "If I have a child now, I have to pay 900 million won (approximately $760,135) in damages. But I don’t have 900 million won right now."

"It turned out that he didn’t have to pay a penalty of 900 million won, but he was coercing me to get an abortion, with a lie," she added.

A said actor K also "promised to marry me after two years. He proposed that we live together starting next year.”

The Soompi report said that A ended up having the abortion, and actor K sent her  2 million won (approximately P85,905) for the surgery and hospital fees.

“I didn’t threaten, complain, or resent him for that. I was just scared that there would be a rupture between us as he’s very sensitive," A said.

But after an entertainment news outlet found out about their relationship, the actor K broke up with her through a phone call, she continued.

“He had promised to marry me and even coerced me to have the abortion," A wrote.

"I told him to remember what kind of relationship we had and asked how he could break up with me on the phone like this, crying, and he got all worked up and said to me that he may have paparazzis on him and meeting up for the last time could harm him in terms of money and fame," she added.

The report said A decided against posting photos or evidence to back up her claims due to legal concerns.

After the post went viral, people speculated it was "Hometown Cha Cha Cha" star Kim Soen Ho.

On Tuesday, Kim Seon Ho's agency released a brief statement.
