Reporter Kang Kyung-yoon who first broke the allegations that Seungri procured sex services in the 'Burning Sun' case reportedly received a text message from Yang Hyun Suk.

Kang made the claim during an SBS podcast "Cinetown 19" on Friday and said, "Yang's mental condition is not very good. I received a text message from him once through another reporter right around the time we reported about Seungri's sexual favors back in February and released the Katalk chats. Yang sent me a message apologizing for when he had sent out a press release warning not to spread false information. He apologized and said, "I had to protect my kiddo at the time. I didn't mean for it to happen."

Meanwhile, Seungri was recently forwarded to prosecution on 7 charges including prostitution and embezzlement involving club Burning Sun.

In a broadcast by MBC 'Straight' in May, Yang Hyun Suk was accused of providing sex services to foreign investors and resigned from all posts at YG Entertainment. He underwent 9 hours of investigations regarding the case on June 25th.
