However, the "evidence" was considered a "disgrace" to the Japanese media as all of the released photos were obviously photoshopped.

In fact, one of the said pieces of evidence was a cropped photo of Chaewon when she had a selfie with Sakura, her co-member. The photo was inverted and attached with the rapper's face.

In other photos, Chaewon was seen sitting and smiling together with the guy, with romantic messages. However, it was noticeable that the photos were heavily edited by using cropping and layering tools, and color grading was also done to match the overall look of the two different photos combined in one.

As a response, the rapper through a direct message clarified the rumor, stating:

"It's really not true (dating rumor). (The photos) were all photoshopped. Yes, it's because I'm a fan. I can't contact you because I'm in Japan (media). Please send a message."

The said guy was also shocked about the report and sternly drew the line that he's not dating LE SSERAFIM Kim Chaewon.

It turned out that the said rapper photoshopped the photos himself just like what a fan would do to their idols; however, these were taken seriously by the Japanese media.
