Actor Nam Joo-hyuk has denied school bullying rumors, saying they are groundless.

On June 20, Nam Joo-hyuk’s agency Management SOOP said, “After checking the truth with the actor regarding the rumors, we have confirmed that all the relevant information is not true. We will request a correction report from the Press Arbitration Commission against the media outlet responsible for seriously damaging the actor’s reputation through false reports. Also, we will file criminal charges against the reporter of the media outlet that first reported the claims as well as the anonymous source. We have requested this case to our legal advisor to proceed with legal actions, and we are in the process of carrying them out.”

Initially, an online media outlet The Days had reported that a person claiming to have attended the same middle and high school with Nam Joo-hyuk was bullied by the actor for six years.

“The actor and his family are the ones who suffer from the vague gossip and rumors that are thoughtless and not confirmed,” the agency said.
