I didn't take into account negative impact and I regret my actions. The account has now been deleted. I apologize to the women in the photos and anyone who may have been offended. Thank you for making me realize my mistake even if its too late."

- [+2,826, -9] Is this something that can be concluded with an apology? It's an outright crime. I hope we don't see him in any Korean works in the future.
- [+965, -14] Putting aside the fact he's a pervert, does he think deleting the hidden camera pictures means its over??? I'm surprised the U.S is just brushing this under the rug? There's definitely more to this.
- [+557, -5] No, its too late now. Even seeing you wearing that hanbok now is disgusting...there's just something... weird about him.
- [+691, -173] If the molka pictures he took were of young women we could at least pass it off as his immaturity over not properly developing sexual boundaries...but taking pictures of elderly grandmas?? and writing dirty comments about their n*pples? He's a psychopath?? I seriously don't understand his brains.
- [+272, -12] This is a s*x crime. Shouldn't it be investigated?
- [+162, -1] He fetishized molka pictures of grandmas and posted them without consent with their faces exposed. He even wrote such demeaning s*xual comments about them. Someone with a criminal character like him needs to be permanently exiled from the industry! This isn't a simple mistake that can be cleared up with an apology. He shouldn't be allowed to make money from the public...what a weird pathetic man!
- [+90, -0] Any normal person would never do something like that..
- [+88, -1] He's going to "study more..?" Is this something you need to study to understand that it's a crime?
- [+74, -1] Don't ever come out!! Even if none of the victims file a lawsuit, the evidence is clear cut. It won't change the fact that he's a criminal! Don't do anything for our country!!
- [+49, -1] Shouldn't he be getting kicked from the entertainment industry? I can't even stand seeing his disgusting ugly face and keep imagining his dirty thoughts about those elderly grandmas...this has gone beyond an apology now. This is serious.
