Yang Hong-won posts reinterpreted Jason Statham quote amid infidelity allegations

Rapper Yang Hong-won shared a message reinterpreting actor Jason Statham's words on social media on the 8th, following allegations that he visited a motel with another woman just five days after his wedding to model Won Hyun-ju. While his agency, AP Alchemy, admitted he accompanied the woman to the motel, they denied any inappropriate relationship and have filed a complaint for extortion and defamation.

Rapper Yang Hong-won, who is currently embroiled in infidelity allegations, posted a message on his social media on the 8th that reinterpreted words from actor Jason Statham. The post read, “When I was young, I thought my parents were too strict. But looking at how kids these days are, my parents actually raised me properly and were actually protecting me,” to which Yang Hong-won added, “I never even thought they were strict.”

Prior to this, on the 4th, Yang Hong-won posted a photo of a page from a book discussing parental roles and child-rearing. The photo contained sentences such as, “To become a good parent, one must start by recognizing one's own unconscious world,” and “The inheritance of negative emotions from parents must not continue any longer.” While online speculation suggested he was indirectly expressing thoughts on family in relation to the infidelity allegations, Yang Hong-won has not clarified the intention behind the posts.

Yang Hong-won became embroiled in the allegations just five days after his wedding to model Won Hyun-ju, with whom he had been dating for a long time. The controversy began when an acquaintance, referred to as A, released photos and a call recording claiming that Yang Hong-won had gone to a motel with another woman.

His agency, AP Alchemy, admitted that he accompanied the woman to the motel but clarified that there was no inappropriate relationship. Furthermore, the agency stated that they have filed a complaint against the initial whistleblower on charges including extortion and defamation. Currently, Yang Hong-won and Won Hyun-ju have unfollowed each other on social media, and posts related to the wedding have been deleted.
