PocketDol Studio has released an official statement denouncing the dating rumors involving FANTASY BOYS member Kim Gyu Rae. 

Recently, rumors about the 14-year old idol dating a 22-year old staff member in their company have circulated online. According to other reports, these rumors were posted alongside alleged private messages and videos involving the idol.

In response, PocketDol Studio released an official statement to react to the malicious posts. 

According to the agency, the idol is “truly apologetic and reflecting on himself for causing disappointment and confusion” to his team members and fans as “issues related to his private life” are being leaked without his permission on social media. 

However, PocketDol Studio then clarified that the disclosed chat logs were misleading. In their statement, the agency emphasized that the disseminator of the content used malicious methods such as editing the conversations to generate baseless facts which caused harm to the artist’s reputation.

Moreover, the label shared that they were able to identify the person behind these malicious actions. With all the evidence collected, PocketDol Studio said that they plan to submit a defamation lawsuit. 

“We are considering additional legal action against the specified person not only for defamation. but also for various illegal acts such as cybercrime and intimidation,” they added. 

Furthermore, the agency also asserted that they will take strong actions to protect their artists. Not only will they file lawsuits, but PocketDol Studios emphasized that these will be done without “any settlement or leniency.” 

As of writing, member Kim Gyu Rae has yet to react on the issue.
