According to Korean media outlet Sports Chosun, in response to rumors circulating on social media claiming that Son Heung-min visited an entertainment venue during Tottenham Hotspur’s visit to South Korea for a pre-season match, his agency has issued a statement declaring that they will collect evidence and take legal action against the rumor spreaders.
Following the Tottenham vs. Bayern Munich pre-season match, a rumor about Son Heung-min spread on South Korean social media, claiming that he visited a club in the Gangnam district of Seoul after the match. Son Heung-min’s side quickly debunked this rumor, stating that it was obviously fake news and that Son Heung-min went straight home to rest after the pre-season match.
Son Heung-min’s agency stated that the rumor was fabricated by an employee of the entertainment venue to promote their company. “Their actions have damaged Son Heung-min’s reputation and image as a public figure, and we will not tolerate it. We will take legal action against the aforementioned club and related personnel,” they stated.
Previously, Son Heung-min’s side had not responded to rumors that were not particularly harmful, but the “Son Heung-min visited an entertainment venue” rumor has angered Son Heung-min’s side. Son Heung-min’s agency stated that they will no longer ignore such false rumors about Son Heung-min in the future.
Son Heung-min’s agency stated that in future instances of malicious rumors spread about Son Heung-min, they will not stand idly by, nor will they engage in any negotiation or leniency. They will take strict legal action against the perpetrators.
