Here is the response of Kim Seon-ho's agency to the forced abortion accusation rumors recently hounding the actor

Every K-Drama fan knows Kim Seon-ho, the actor catapulted into superstardom by two of tvN's big hit series, "Start Up" and "Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha." Kim is always on the news nowadays and it's normal for stars to be always on the news. But news about him are not always good, bad news is hounding him now. An allegation that Kim forced his ex-girlfriend to get an abortion is now in the spotlight and it is not good for his image. Is it true or just baseless rumor? That is the question now that is in the mind of fans around the world.

Kim Seon-ho Abortion


To calm down the fans, the actor's agency released a statement that does not actually clear things up, "As we have not confirmed the truth behind the case, we ask for your patience. We are truly sorry to cause any concern with such an unpleasant issue."



But where did the rumor start? Is there a solid proof that it is true? Well, in the age of the internet it is very easy to perpetuate lies, but it's not only lies that abound in the web, sad truths can also be leaked online. The accusation against Kim was raised by an anonymous user in an online community, the user claimed that she was Kim's ex-girlfriend. Actually, the anonymous user did not name Kim directly, she used an initial "K" and described him as a "rising star". The user alledged that "K" got her pregnant while they were dating last year. It is said that "K" convinced her to get an abortion by promising that he'd marry her if she'd abort the baby. The user also claimed that the actor "K" really forced her to get an abortion, here are some of her words:



"I told K that the doctor said if I get an abortion now, it might be hard for me to get pregnant again… and I still have his outrageous response to my message," the user wrote. "He came to my house and tried to persuade me for days until I agreed to get an abortion."


The user also claimed that "K" told her that if she do not proceed with the abortion, he'd be in violation of his agency's advertising contract and would be forced to pay hundreds of millions of won. The anonymous user is basically saying that "K" forced her to get abortion because of his own selfish self preservation. She also claimed that after she got the abortion, "K" broke up with her, he did it over the phone. If that is true then it's very cruel.



Even if the accuser did not name names, fans were quick to identify the "K" as Kim because the description of "K" matched the actor.



Even if Kim is not directly named in the accusation, some of the companies that use Kim in their advertisements responded to the accusation by removing the star's pictures in their social media pages and websites. One of those big companies is Domino, Kim's photos and videos are no longer in the pizza franchise's official website and social media accounts. Kim's agency also cancelled the actor's scheduled interviews related to the hit series, "Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha." Even Kim's co-stars in the series also cancelled their interviews.



Is there something to this? Are these just baseless accusations? Well, we'll see more of this in the coming days.
