According to the February 24 report of a Korean news media outlet, Roy Kim is innocent of any sexual misconduct. The singer was a part of Jung Joon Young's chat room scandal but was not indicted for any crimes. However, his image was badly hurt because of the scandal.
The reporter stated "A lot of people don't know the actual involvement of Roy Kim. Let me clarify something on behalf of the singer, he was a part of a fishing chat group together with Joon Young and Jong Hoon because the three would usually go on fishing trips together. Roy Kim noticed that pornographic images were sent in the chat room and so he took a screenshot of it to check if it was edited. Later on, he decided to upload it and explain that the images were edited. He also explained that he wasn't the one who took the photo but then people misunderstood it and said that he was spreading pornographic material and things quickly got out of hand."
"After the incident, Roy Kim may have not gotten indicted but the fact that he was one of the people being investigated affected his image and career. Right now, he cannot promote anything and has no job offers," he continued.
Meanwhile, Roy Kim has graduated last year in Georgetown University USA despite the involvement in the scandal and allegations. He also graduated top of his class with the latin honor cum laude.
