Actor Ahn Se-ha's scheduled event has been canceled amid allegations of school violence.
On the 11th, a representative from the NC Dinos baseball team confirmed to X Sports News that Ahn Se-ha's ceremonial first pitch, set for the 15th at Changwon NC Park, has been called off. The cancelation was made to avoid any issues arising from the allegations until they are resolved, with both the team and the actor's agency agreeing on this course of action. Ahn was expected to perform the national anthem and throw the first pitch during a home game against the LG Twins, which would have been particularly notable since Changwon is his hometown.
Allegations surfaced on the 9th when a post claiming that Ahn had been involved in school violence was shared on an online community. In response, Ahn Se-ha's agency, Hunus Entertainment, firmly denied the claims and announced plans to take legal action for defamation due to the spread of false information. This controversy has cast a shadow over the actor's upcoming engagements and the community's response.
The fallout from these allegations raises questions about how such situations could impact the careers of K-pop and Korean actors in the spotlight.
