Leaked CCTV Footage Shows Popular Idols Hanging Out And Engaging In Skinship, Agencies Address The Rumors
VERIVERY Kangmin and KISS OF LIFE Julie have spoken out about the dating rumors related to a leaked CCTV video.
On the 29th of September, a CCTV video spread on the Chinese social media site Weibo showing a man and woman, who appeared to be on a date in what looked like a bar room. In the video, the man stroked the hair of the woman lying on the sofa and gave her a back hug, engaging in natural skinship. The woman was also seen smoking an electronic cigarette.
Some netizens claimed that the man and woman were each VERIVERY Kangmin and KISS OF LIFE Julie. In response, Kangmin’s agency Jellyfish Entertainment stated, “Recently, we have confirmed that baseless rumors about our artist, a member of VERIVERY, have been indiscriminately spread and circulated through portal sites, online articles, various communities, and social media. This rumor is completely untrue and is a malicious falsehood that seriously damages the artist’s reputation.”
They continued, “Our company prioritizes the protection of the artist, and we will take strong legal action without leniency against the creators, distributors, and reproducers of malicious rumors.”
Julie’s agency, S2 Entertainment, stated, “As this concerns the artist’s private life, there is nothing we can confirm.”
Meanwhile, VERIVERY Kangmin recently ranked 9th place in the final of the Mnet survival program “Boys 2 Planet” and failed to re-debut. KISS OF LIFE Julie is scheduled to debut in Japan in the second half of this year.
