Allegations of an affair involving a female celebrity pro golfer are causing a stir in Korea.
In an exclusive interview with Sports Kyunghyang on the 2nd, a woman 'A' alleged "to protect my family, I have filed a complaint about a professional golfer 'C' who had an affair with my husband 'B'. My husband is a strict, well-willed, well-to-do spouse and I'm firmly committed to keeping my family. My husband won't be filing for a divorce and I have no reason to prepare for it either."
After the report, the husband 'B', in an interview with the media insisted that "his wife's claims and those involving the female pro golfer were false."
The pro golfer C didn't keep quiet either. On an interview with Kyunghyang on the 3rd, she refuted the allegations stating, "A gave an interview saying that I had an affair with her husband. None of it is true."
As a result of the allegations, the public's interest in the female pro golfer surnamed 'Seng', well-known for her beauty and fame are growing. In response, Kyunghyang checked directly with various companies that are working with the golfer on the 4th to monitor the agencies' stance on the growing scandal.
An apparel company where 'C' worked as a model stated, "We signed a one-yr CF modeling contract with her so we have nothing to say at this stage. If the report is confirmed to be true, naturally we'll terminate our contract and trigger the penalty clause. But since the relationship has yet to be confirmed and they're in the middle of a lawsuit right now, we will continue with the planned CF filming and broadcasts next week."
A golf course official from the agency where 'C' served as PR ambassador stated, "We shared the reports with the company executives after the news broke out. We're not at a stage where we can make a statement yet."
A shoe company that 'C' promoted stated, "We provide 'C' with a pair or two of shoes a year because of her huge SNS presence. It's not a contract relationship."
In addition, Japanese golf companies that 'C' works with have also avoided making a statement because of the recent trade dispute between Korea and Japan.
In the meantime, the 50-million won lawsuit involving pro golfer 'C' and alleged victim 'A' is in progress. Because of the couple's family history, this scandal has caused social issue in Korea and is building up daily as the lawsuit continues.
