Yoo Jae Suk has denied being the celebrity who was reported to have sexually harassed a woman.

On December 18, the YouTube Channel Garo Sero Institute revealed an interview with a woman who used to work at an adult entertainment establishment. The woman claimed that she had been sexually harassed by a celebrity who appeared on MBC’s “Infinite Challenge” at the time.

Garo Sero Institute is the YouTube channel that previously revealed the allegations of sexual assault and harassment by Kim Gun Mo.

Former entertainment reporter Kim Yong Ho, one of the show’s hosts, added, “This celebrity is very famous and is known for staying on the straight and narrow. He has a close relationship with Kim Gun Mo.”

Following the broadcast, netizens began speculating who the celebrity was based on the hint that he had appeared on “Infinite Challenge.” Phrases like “Infinite Challenge” and “Yoo Jae Suk” rose on the realtime search rankings of portal sites.

On December 19, Yoo Jae Suk held a press conference for his first concert as the trot singer Yoo San Seul.

Addressing the speculations, he said, “[My name] rose on the realtime search rankings, and a lot of people asked me if I was the person in question. I was very taken aback. Of course, it’s not me, and just mentioning this will bring about unnecessary misunderstandings. Because [I’m sitting here in front of you], I’ll talk about it. I always say this, but I’m doing this in the hope that there won’t be any innocent victims.”
