Dong-hoe Dong-hoe, CEO of All That Sports, said, "We will take strict legal action against the YouTuber and spreader for spreading false facts and defaming Kim Yu-na and his wife with absurd and absurd fake news."
He continued, "Fake news is spreading like poisonous mushrooms, targeting celebrities and sports stars under the name of freedom of expression. This is not freedom, but a crime and social evil that is corrosive to our society." In addition, All That Sports also requested, “Google’s efforts and support are needed to eradicate the spread of fake news on YouTube.”
Recently, fake news spread online that Yuna Kim, who got married in October of last year, and Go Woo-rim of the group Forestella have divorced. It also included the absurd content that Go Woo-rim cheated on Kim Yu-na, who was pregnant.
