GF Entertainment has announced plans to take legal action following The KingDom’s Hwon being involved in a host bar rumor.

The KingDom Member Hwon Involved in Host Bar Rumor

The rumors began circulating when a verified account on the social media platform X released a detailed post accusing Hwon of working at a host bar while promoting as an idol. The post also alleged that Hwon had ghosted the poster after a sexual encounter. The account revealed alleged personal details about Hwon and claimed he had a side gig at a host bar. These establishments are known for offering male companionship as a service to women willing to pay. This includes pouring drinks, engaging in conversation, dancing, singing karaoke, and more, although sexual relations are neither officially offered nor condoned.

In response to these accusations, GF Entertainment has issued an official statement. The label firmly denied the allegations and expressed its intent to pursue legal action against the spread of malicious rumors and defamatory statements about Hwon. GF Entertainment emphasized the severity of the situation, stating that such false accusations not only damage Hwon’s reputation but also affect his mental and emotional well-being.

The statement read, “We are aware of the rumors being circulated online about Hwon. These claims are completely baseless and false. We are taking these defamatory actions very seriously and have already begun legal proceedings to address the spread of these malicious rumors. We will not tolerate any actions that harm the reputation and integrity of our artists.”

The agency further urged fans and the public to refrain from spreading unverified information and to support Hwon during this challenging time. GF Entertainment reassured that they are committed to protecting their artists’ rights and will continue to take necessary legal measures against any further malicious activities.
