Watching the matter blow up on social media on June 4, SM Entertainment's senior K-pop idol Heechul responded to his alleged involvement in the NCT scandal. Heechul is famous for being very social, and fans speculate he might have had a role in this. A screenshot surfaced when a fan directly asked him, “Heechul, just what have you been doing in Japan?”

The K-pop idol immediately debunked the news, saying, “I've been keeping an eye on it anyway. I'm worried I'll cause an incident on Instagram again, so I've just been talking to the company. I'm going to give a brief statement here in case you guys will worry or be disappointed. I've never met any of our company's junior idols outside of work, nor have I had a meal or drinks with them. I don't even have their contact numbers.”

However, it seems that fans are sceptical, as his reply seems to suggest he was more focused on safeguarding the NCT members rather than admitting he had been drinking with the girls. “If it really wasn’t true, he would’ve acted up so much on Instagram calling people feminist b*tches, but seeing how he’s talking to the company, it’s probably true LOL,” a fan commented. They also questioned his statements, considering his typical tendency to speak out.

SM Entertainment denies

NCT's Johnny and Haechan's agency, SM Entertainment, issues official statement denying recent sex scandal rumors and confirms legal action against those spreading them. In a recent statement to K-media outlet, Tenasia, the agency said, “Currently, rumors surrounding Johnny and Haechan’s involvement with prostitution, drugs, and other indecent content are being reproduced and spread online. After verifying the facts, these allegations are not true at all, and [these rumors] are criminal acts that seriously defame our artists.” Read full below.
