Korean actor Kim Seon-ho has released an apology letter to his ex-girlfriend following the abortion scandal. His ex-girlfriend had written via an anonymous post on an online community site on October 17 alleging that an “actor K” had demanded she terminate her pregnancy when they were dating in 2020.

She further alleged that the actor had behaved differently towards her after the abortion.
A news publication later identified “actor K” as Kim, the star of the popular K-drama ‘Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha’, reports The Star.com.
Now, various Korean news portals ran Kim’s apology letter which he shared through his agency on October 20.
In the letter, he stated that he started the relationship with the person “with good feelings and intentions”.
He wrote: “However, during the relationship, I hurt this person due to my carelessness and lack of consideration.
“I had hoped to meet with her again and apologise to her directly, but I am currently unable to do so and am waiting for the moment when I can do so. For now, I would like to genuinely apologise to her through this statement.”

“It was all thanks to those who supported me that I was able to become the actor Kim Seon-ho, but I had forgotten that.”
He ended the apology letter with: “I am aware that this rambling will not fully reach your hearts, but I am still attempting to convey my sincere thoughts. I am very sorry.”
