He stressed that there was no illegal conduct during his time with Park and said he intends to defend himself against any false claims that could damage his reputation.
Choi expressed confidence that the facts will come to light in court and assured that the legal process will provide clarity. He also urged the public not to jump to conclusions based on rumors or incomplete information.
“I’d like to talk briefly about the CBS story about me that aired this evening.
First of all, it is true that a close acquaintance of mine was sued by Ms. Park Ji Yoon.
However, I would like to point out that during my marriage to Mrs. Park there was absolutely no illegal activity and I will respond firmly to any defamation based on false accusations.The truth will be revealed in court and the court’s ruling will be disclosed transparently.
I kindly ask people to refrain from speculating based on unconfirmed information.”—Choi Dong Seok
