Actor Lee Yi-kyung, who was caught up in rumors of her personal life, eventually officially dropped out of "Brave Detectives."

T-Cast E-Channel officially announced Lee Yi-kyung's departure on the 9th, reporting the broadcast news of Season 5 of "Brave Detectives" (directed by Lee Ji-sun). E-Channel said, "We said goodbye to MC Kim Sun-young and Lee Yi-kyung, who have performed well in the new season, and have a new MC at the end of season 4."

Lee Yi-kyung is a founding contributor who has been an MC for "Brave Detectives" since the first broadcast of Season 1 in April 2022. However, in October last year, he briefly vacated the MC position of "Brave Detectives" after suffering from rumors of his personal life. At the time, the production team said, "Actor Lee Yi-kyung, who has played a strong role as an MC, will leave her position as the MC of 'Brave Detectives 4' at the top of her personal history for the time being," adding, "Different guests will appear in 'Brave Detectives 4' over the next few weeks."

In the meantime, the production team has been cautious about whether Lee Yi-kyung will get off, but they finally decided to get off ahead of the first broadcast of season 5 as related suspicions are still not clearly resolved.

A, who claimed to be German in October last year, caused a stir by releasing text messages containing obscene remarks and abusive language, saying he had a conversation with Lee Yi-kyung. Even after changing his words that the photos and writings used in the disclosure were fabricated by artificial intelligence (AI), he reversed his claim and continued to expose further.

In response, Lee Yi-kyung's agency, Screening ENT, said, "We are preparing legal measures for damage caused by the spread of false facts and malicious rumors, and we will take all measures by calculating the amount of direct and indirect damage caused by the spread of false facts according to the seriousness of this case."

Lee Yi-kyung also said, "I visited the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul to investigate the accuser's statement," adding, "I conveyed my position on Rumor and completed the process of filing a complaint for defamation by threatening and disclosing false information."

Meanwhile, "Brave Detectives" is a criminal entertainment program that vividly conveys the investigation process based on actual cases solved by detectives who have kept the safe daily lives of the people against crime. It has been loved for generating not only sincere empathy but also alertness and prevention effects against crime. In the new season, Kwak Sun-young and Yoon Doo-joon will join as new MCs along with Ahn Jung-hwan and Kwon Il-yong, who have been in position for a long time. "Brave Detectives 5" will premiere at 9:50 p.m. on the 27th.
