I was trying to organize all the shoes that I'm missing these past few days. They really took a cr*p load."They continued: "You want nice things and you have no common sense and it's been over six months since you said you'd return them but when are you going to give them back. I hate ranting on Instagram like this too so get on to before I reveal you idenity."People soon started to spread the post around, speculating about the legitimacy of the issue and whether the idol they referred to was EXO Suho. However, SM Entertainment's immediate reciprocation with an official statement calmed things down."The social media post currently being spread online claiming that Suho is the suspected individual in the accusations is entirely baseless and completely false, ans Suho is wholly unrelated to such accusations."The statement further stated:"We have begun preparations for a defamation lawsuit against whoever is reponsible for spreading such content with clearly malicious intentions, content which would lead other to suspect our agency artist. We will continue to respond with strong legal actions to all acconts of baseless rumor spreading."Fans respond to rumors of EXO Suho stealing 300 pairs of designer shoes from a stylistAfter the news spread across the internet, many fans were shocked by the accusations and took to Twitter to discuss the same.
