Jeon Hojoon’s Side States “Assault was in Self-Defense…Occurred in Situation of Unauthorized Entry into Home”
Musical actor Jeon Hojoon has officially stated that the assault on his former partner was in self-defense, stating that it occurred while trying to prevent unauthorized entry into his home.
Jeon released a statement along with a photo showing himself bleeding on social media, expressing serious concerns about A’s unilateral claims.
On the other hand, A has been escalating the disclosure by claiming repeated assaults and financial exploitation by Jeon, releasing police statements and photo evidence, leading to an escalating conflict between the two parties.
A claims to be the victim, stating that Jeon Hojoon physically assaulted her during their relationship, even exploiting money and belongings under the pretext of marriage.
In particular, she stated, “I begged for my life while being choked and my hair pulled, but Jeon did not stop the assault,” attaching detailed SNS posts describing the situation at the time of the incident along with evidence photos and parts of the police statement.
A’s claims quickly spread through online communities and media reports, causing public outrage.
In response, Jeon directly refuted the circumstances of the incident, stating that “a physical confrontation occurred while trying to prevent the other party from illegally entering my home in the early hours.”
He claimed, “Physical conflict was unavoidable, and I also suffered bleeding on my head and face,” adding that the photos were some evidence taken by the police who responded to the scene at the time.
He emphasized that some claims spreading without understanding the context of the incident are “distorting the truth and seriously damaging his reputation.”
Jeon also hinted that by publicly releasing recordings containing contents that could be interpreted unfavorably towards him, he meant to urge people to understand the entire situation rather than judging based on specific parts, implying that he could also be a victim.
He indicated that he can continue to release necessary levels of evidence, stating, “As much as situations where distorted claims and false facts persist, legal measures may have to be considered,” keeping open the possibility of legal responses in the future.
