As rapper Yang Hong-won's side released a statement refuting allegations of an affair, traces were detected indicating that he and his wife, former model Won Hyeon-ju, had unfollowed each other on their social media accounts.

On the 23rd, it was confirmed that Yang Hong-won and Won Hyeon-ju had unfollowed each other's Instagram accounts. This occurred just five days after the couple held their wedding ceremony.

That day, whistleblower A raised suspicions of an affair involving Yang Hong-won through social media. A stated, "The newlywed groom just went to a motel with a woman. Isn't that wrong?" and revealed the face and account of a woman presumed to have accompanied Yang Hong-won to the motel.

Additionally, A posted a screenshot of a screen showing a direct message sent to Won Hyeon-ju, Yang Hong-won's wife.

Yang Hong-won and Won Hyeon-ju had been in a relationship since 2017, gave birth to a daughter in November 2024, and held their wedding ceremony on the 18th of this month. On the day of the wedding, Yang Hong-won sparked controversy by stating his feelings were like "entering a motel in Cheongho-dong." Just five days later, a controversy related to a "motel" erupted.

Subsequently, A turned on a live broadcast and said, "If you just give up a little loyalty, your bank account balance will change. Who keeps their loyalty?" stating that the purpose of the exposé was attention and money. A also expressed dissatisfaction with a settlement proposed by a lawyer.

In this process, Yang Hong-won first unfollowed Won Hyeon-ju's social media account, and Won Hyeon-ju also unfollowed Yang Hong-won's social media account.

That afternoon, Yang Hong-won's agency, AP Alchemy, stated, "The whistleblower's claims are contrary to the facts, and the materials presented by the whistleblower are maliciously edited results. The whistleblower threatened our artist and the victim woman to extort money, but when things did not go as planned, they made an exposé based on false facts. Accordingly, our artist and the victim woman have filed complaints against the whistleblower for extortion, violation of the Stalking Punishment Act, and defamation through the dissemination of false facts."

The agency explained, "On the day of the incident, during the performance, our artist was interacting with the whistleblower, whom they had coincidentally met. After the performance ended, they went to drink at the whistleblower's home." It added, "While drinking, the whistleblower demanded that our artist and the victim woman go to a motel designated by them and requested their departure. Our artist and the victim woman had no choice but to leave the location."

It continued, "Our artist, in a state of extreme intoxication, went to a motel to find a place to sleep, and the victim woman, who had nowhere else to go, was forced to accompany them." It reported, "Our artist fell asleep as soon as they entered the room. After some time passed, the victim woman tried to wake up our sleeping artist, but feeling burdened by the potential physical contact that could occur in the process, she requested help from the whistleblower and subsequently returned home with the whistleblower."

In particular, it stated, "As shown by the presented evidence, we acknowledge that our artist and the victim woman were forced to accompany each other to the motel. However, they did not have much conversation even during the drinking session, and there was absolutely no intimate behavior in the room. Furthermore, they did not pay any money in response to the whistleblower's financial demands."
