Being an A-list actor might be a short-lived fortune for Kim Seon Ho as he suffered from devastating claims following the success of Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.
This week, a Korean citizen posted an allegation on Pann Nate's website revealing Actor K's wrongdoing. She claimed that a Korean star forced her to have an abortion after learning she got pregnant following unprotected intercourse with him. The same citizen added that Actor K's behavior changed after learning about her pregnancy before breaking up with her to safeguard his career.
She did not reveal who Actor K is, but she did inform everyone she had photos with him to prove their connection. However, multiple sources confirmed that Actor K is indeed Kim Seon Ho, and he immediately began losing everything after the reports emerged.
