Goo Hye-sun’s side “We have the original ‘Actress Statement’… Appeal against YouTuber’s acquittal”

Actress Goo Hye-sun is filing an appeal over the acquittal of a YouTuber she sued for defamation.

On the 1st, the law firm Liu, the legal representative of Goo Hye-sun, distributed an official position statement that began with, “Recently, misunderstandings, speculations, and secondary damage have occurred in relation to the results of the lawsuit, and we expressing our opinion. a situation to be rectified.”

The legal representative said, “The prosecution has recently cleared the case where Goo Hye-sun sued YouTuber Lee Jin-ho for defamation. The authenticity of the so-called ‘actress statement’ and the details of its disclosure are at the heart of this case,” he said.

It is true that the above statement was written at the time based on the statement of the person concerned.”

He added, “Mr. Goo Hye-seon intends to request a re-investigation by appealing against the disposition of the above charges.” It is a situation that has caused an unfair misunderstanding, as if Goo Hye-sun fabricated the above statement and revealed it.”

“There is no reason for Goo Hye-sun to reveal the statement of the case that has already been completed. Instead, the statement was revealed without knowing the source or route, and it became a controversial topic, so Hye-sun Goo feels sincere for her friend who helped write the statement. Nevertheless, since the secondary harm happens to the person concerned in the statement or to Hye-seon Ku, Hye-sun Goo has decided to file an appeal again to resolve this injustice. Please seriously ask for care to prevent any secondary damage from occurring.”

During the divorce process between Goo Hye-sun and actor Ahn Jae-hyun last year, statements involving Ahn Jae-hyun and a woman’s relationship and physical affairs were posted on the Internet. In response, YouTuber Lee Jin-ho stated in a video uploaded to his channel that “the statement is not reliable because it does not have a form such as a signature and seal,” but Goo Hye-sun said it was “false information” and defaming Lee Jin-ho (promoting the use of an information and communication network and Breaching the Information Protection Act).

The police decided not to forward the case in June, but Goo Hye-sun objected to the results of the investigation and filed an objection with the prosecution in July. After about three months of investigation, the prosecution finally came to the conclusion that there was no charge.

Meanwhile, Goo Hye-sun and Ahn Jae-hyun got married in 2016 after making a relationship through the drama ‘Blood’, but they broke up in early 2020, after 4 years of marriage, and took a stamp divorced in July of that year. .

Regarding the results of Goo Hye-sun’s complaint, there has been misunderstanding, speculation, and secondary damage recently, and I want to correct this.

In Goo Hye-sun’s defamation lawsuit against YouTuber Lee Jin-ho, the prosecution recently dismissed the charges. The authenticity of the so-called ‘Actress Statement’ and the details of its disclosure are at the heart of this case.

Goo Hye-sun still has the original statement written on April 8, 2020. The above statement is correct at the time based on the person’s statement. Mr Lee Jin-ho described the above statement as if it were a fake document, citing reasons such as not having the form of a legal document, but the above statement is a valid document prepared by the person concerned confirming and agreeing to the content.

The prosecution found it difficult to see that Lee Jin-ho had the purpose of slandering Goo Hye-sun, but it is very difficult to understand. First of all, Lee Jin-ho did not make any inquiries or interviews with Goo Hye-sun. If Lee Jin-ho had asked Hye-seon the truth or even confirmed her position before uploading the alleged video related to a scandal about Goo Hye-sun’s private life, there would not be the current unnecessary misunderstanding and slander has happened

It must be clearly explained under what circumstances the above statement was leaked and disclosed. Posting and deletion 2021.5.2. The substance of the process by which the disclosure was reported to mid-morning reporters must also be disclosed.

The reason Goo Hye-sun sued was to reveal that fact. Unfortunately, however, it seems that not enough investigation has been done on these key points, and instead, Goo Hye-sun has been falsely accused.

In response, Goo Hye-seon intends to appeal against the disposition of the above charges and request a re-investigation.

Goo Hye-sun has the original statement written with the help of a friend a long time ago, and it was suddenly released to the public through the Internet about a year later, and it caused an unfair misunderstanding that Goo Hye-sun -Sun fabricated the above statement and made it public.

Goo Hye-sun has no reason to reveal the statement of the case that has already been completed.

Rather, the statement was released without knowing the source or route, and it became a controversial topic, so Goo Hye-sun is sincere for her friend who helped write the statement. Nevertheless, since the secondary harm happens to the person concerned in the statement or to Hye-seon Ku, Hye-sun Goo has decided to file an appeal again to resolve this injustice.

Be careful not to cause any secondary damage.
