Expressing her concerns, Lee Eun Joo conveyed her apologies for sharing the disturbing content with her fans. She admitted hesitating to take legal action, fearing it might be misconstrued as an attack on Shinhwa fans and negatively impact her husband. 

Lee Eun Joo: 

“I am sorry to show you these bad words. I was going to take legal measures but I was afraid that Shinhwa fans would think I was attacking them and I was afraid I would be negatively affecting my husband.”

But I saw that actress Seo Yoon Ah  was also receiving these threats and so I am mustering my courage to stop this. I am sharing only some of the messages that I have received from the same person, who uses several different account handles.”

Opening up about the emotional toll of the malicious comments, Lee Eun Joo revealed the pain she felt each time she encountered them.

Lee Eun Joo: 

“I know that my husband is where he is because of the fans. I, as his wife, am also humbly thankful to the fans. I would like to reiterate that I will be taking legal action against this specific person and not the fans who mean so much to us.

I tried to think that the malicious comments were better than disinterest, and I’ve tried to ignore the comments section altogether. But my heart broke every time I saw the comments.

I ask that you no longer hide behind your anonymity to write these comments. Although I’ve become strong enough to not be affected by the comments, I don’t want to face them ever again. I no longer think that ignoring these comments is a way to protect my family.”
