Writer So Jae-won burst into laughter upon learning that Go Young-wook, formerly of the group Rula, had threatened to sue her.

On the 9th, So Jae-won posted on her social media: "A man named Go Young-wook came to my SNS and left such comments. Early in the morning, members of my office contacted me and even sent news articles about this matter. We laughed helplessly at each other and couldn't help but sigh."

Earlier, on the 7th, So Jae-won stated, "How long must we tolerate the outrageous claims of Go Young-wook, a shameless individual who committed sexual crimes against minors? Even hiding away wouldn't be enough." She added, "You constantly excrete garbage-like posts every other day. There is no devil in this world who would sympathize with or agree with the fecal matter you spread." Recently, she also referred to Go Young-wook, who has targeted celebrities including actress Lee Min-jung, the couple Lee Byung-hun and his wife, and Park Ha-sun, as a "vile attention-seeker."

In response, Go Young-wook said, "When I woke up this morning and confirmed news articles about writer So Jae-won making baseless slanderous remarks about me, I was utterly bewildered and momentarily stunned. She wrote without verifying facts or any connection to the person involved. This is a matter that warrants legal review."

So Jae-won remarked, "It makes me think, 'People can really be like this.' According to the news, she said she would sue me. As you can see, I do not initiate conflicts first."

"However, any fight I have entered, I will fight until the end with reckless determination and win no matter what happens. And I will demand legitimate legal responsibility and secure compensation," she stated.

She continued, "This tenacious spirit comes from the public's courage. My desire to leave a precedent of victory for my readers—the vulnerable—and enable them to protect themselves without lawyers based on that precedent—is what drives this persistence." She pointed out, "Reading Go Young-wook's posts makes me unable to suppress laughter. If anyone saw this, they would think I committed a crime while Go Young-wook lectures and criticizes me."

Meanwhile, Go Young-wook was indicted on charges of sexual assault and forcible molestation involving minors, sentenced to two years and six months in prison in 2013, and served time. He was released from prison after completing his sentence in 2015.
