Yulhee, former member of LABOUM, is taking a strong stance against malicious online comments and sexual harassment. After initiating legal action against her ex-husband, Choi Min Hwan, she now plans to address the increasing abuse she’s faced online.
Yulhee Addresses Legal Actions on YouTube
On November 22, Yulhee uploaded a video on her YouTube channel, sharing details about her daily life and the motivation behind her recent legal actions.
“As someone who works in a field that requires me to be visible to the public, I’ve always understood that there would be a variety of opinions about me. I’ve tried to accept that as part of the job,” Yulhee explained.
She also admitted that she initially tolerated criticism but was pushed to her limit.
“Even with the recent wave of malicious comments, I initially thought I could tolerate a certain level of criticism and harsh words. The more I stayed silent, the worse it became. That’s when I decided to proceed with legal action. It’s one thing for people to dislike my choices or activities, but the personal attacks and sexual harassment have crossed a line. I believe these baseless, reckless comments should be dealt with legally, without leniency.”
Previous Revelations and Legal Developments
In October, Yulhee publicly shared an audio recording alleging Choi Min Hwan’s involvement in illicit activities, such as solicitation and visits to entertainment establishments. These allegations led to Choi Min Hwan stepping down from FTISLAND and halting all activities.
While Yulhee had remained silent about the details of their divorce for a long time, she broke her silence after revealing these allegations. On November 5, she filed additional legal claims, including a custody change for their children, alimony, and property division.
A Strong Stand Against Harassment
Yulhee’s decision to expand her legal actions demonstrates her zero-tolerance policy toward online harassment and defamation. By standing up to cyberbullying, she aims to create accountability for harmful behavior in digital spaces.
Her message serves as a reminder that public figures, despite being in the spotlight, deserve respect and dignity. Fans and netizens have expressed their support for her courage to take such a firm stand.
