Kim Yu-na, Go Woo-rim Stars who fell victim to fake news

Kim Yu-na and Go Woo-rim are suffering from fake news.

Recently, news broke through a YouTube channel that Kim Yuna and Go Woo-rim are getting divorced. The two-minute video claimed that Kim Yuna and Go Woo-rim divorced on February 11, and that it was reported through leading domestic media.

Also, the video contained content that Go Woo-rim cheated on Kim Yu-na, who was pregnant.

However, this was unconfirmed fake news. There is no media report based on the divorce rumor on the channel.

The video attracted the attention of netizens, recording thousands of views, but the comment window function was limited.

Recently, Baek Jong-won, Park Geun-hyung, and Hye-eun were also caught up in 'death rumors' out of nowhere. Another star has been harmed by the continued fake news.

It was the parties who suffered damage from the unfounded facts revealed through YouTube. Baek Jong-won, who was filming overseas, suddenly became a hot topic after being linked to rumors of his death. Baek Jong-won explained this directly to the franchise owners at the headquarters.

Hye-eun also appeared on ‘Let’s Live Together with Park Won-sook’ and directly addressed the death rumors. Ahn So-young said, “Someone I know called me and said, ‘Hye-eun’s sister has died.’” Ahn Moon-sook also added her support, saying, “I heard that Hye-eun suddenly suffered a cardiac arrest and was taken to the hospital.” Hye-eun responded in bewilderment.

Park Geun-hyung appeared on the YouTube channel 'Guracheol' and confessed that he suffered damage due to fake news.
