Netflix said on the 30th, “Please understand that it is difficult for us to confirm or express our position regarding media reports about individual players.”
Triple Star previously revealed his conflict with his ex-wife and the girlfriend he dated before his marriage. Triple Star started dating Mr A in 2014 and got married in May 2022, but broke up with his girlfriend B after 3 months of marriage due to alleged affair.
Mr. A is also known as an investor who invested 150 million won in ‘Treed’, a restaurant run by Triple Star in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. He also said that Triple Star actively lobbied for a job at Michelin restaurants while he was studying abroad in the United States.
Triple Star and Mr. A got married at a famous hotel in Seoul, but it was a common law marriage that did not register the marriage, and they broke up later. However, Ms A’s situation is that when Ms A got a new boyfriend about a year later, Triple Star sent her a threatening text message. Mr A also disclosed this information via Dispatch.
Mr. A went public by saying that when there was conflict during their relationship, Triple Star wrote a letter of reflection, which included, “I looked at CCTV to find a woman who was heavily covered sitting there,” and “I’m trash. I like women.” And, out of greed, I did something I shouldn’t have done to someone who gave me so much love.” There was even a statement that said, “I had to sleep with another man because of my greed,” which was shocking.
Mr B told Triple Star he had “broken under the water”. He then said, “I heard rumors about women’s affairs, but I didn’t know that I would be one of them. It turned out that he was dating another woman, and soon after, he suddenly heard I heard rumors that he was getting married and opening a store.”
However, in response to Mr. A’s lobbying application, Triple Star said, “This is not a place where you get hired just because you lobby,” and he said, “I posted -d says that I worked as an external worker at ‘Atelier. Crenn’ and that I worked as an unpaid workerfor 3 months at ‘Benu’ and that I was hired as a full-time worker.” “Yes,” he explained.
Regarding the content of the reflection statement, he replied that “I don’t remember.”
Also, regarding Yangdari’s suspicion, he said, “We met for 1-2 months and had different opinions, so we did not contact each other.”
