He claimed that it was fear that stopped him from coming forward before and that the situation had arisen due to his "incompetence and lack of consideration".Read the full statement here:"This is Kim Seon Ho. First, I sincerely apologize for my belated statement. When I first saw the news articles with my name on them a few days ago, I experienced a fear like I had never felt before, which is why I am only now presenting myself in writing.I dated this person with good feelings. But during the relationship, I hurt this person due to my incompetence and lack of consideration. I had hoped to meet with this person again in order to deliver my sincere apology, but I am currently unable to do so and am waiting for that time when I am presented with the opportunity.In the meantime, I hope to relay my apology in earnest through this letter. I would also like to apologize to all those who trusted me and cheered me on until the end, for disappointing you. I was only able to stand tall as actor Kim Seon Ho because of the people who cheered me on, but I had forgotten this fact. I also take this time to apologize to the many people who worked with me on various productions for the harm which I have caused, due to my mistakes. Once again, I want to sincerely apologize to all who may have been hurt by this incident. I know that these ramblings are insufficient to reach many people earnestly, but I offer my honest thoughts in any way that I can. I am truly sorry."While fans of the actor have been steadfastly on his side throughout the controversy, the latest revelation has shaken even the staunchest of them, with most in disbelief.ariana iskandar@nnthuseri loved kim seon ho sm but that doesnt make what he did to his ex gf acceptable. do not blame the girl, she mustve taken a lot of thoughts and bravery to do so.10:35 AM · Oct 20, 2021i loved kim seon ho sm but that doesnt make what he did to his ex gf acceptable. do not blame the girl, she mustve taken a lot of thoughts and bravery to do so.Gel 🤍 Stream Tamed-Dashed@gellyac63867312Felt sad for Kim seon ho's scandal.
