Korean actor Kim Mu Jun denies being involved in infidelity rumors with Mei Nagano and Kei Tanaka.

Kim, who has starred in the K-Dramas "Nevertheless" and "My Dearest," has been thrown into the limelight as he was accused of having romantic relations with Nagano, with whom he acted alongside on TBS's "Caster."

The controversy intensified after a weekly Japanese magazine, Shūkan Bunshun, published pictures purporting to show intimate moments between Nagano and Tanaka, who is married.

Upon learning of the allegations, Kim's agency, Nine Ato Entertainment, promptly statedon April 23, refuting the claims.

"Kim Mu Jun and Mei Nagano are simply colleagues," the agency told Hankyung, emphasizing that the actor maintains a professional relationship with Nagano.

The rumors have generated a firestorm of controversy and scandal among both the fans and media in Japan and Korea, where Tanaka is a known figure, especially considering the family status of Tanaka, who has been married since 2011 and is the father of two daughters.

The actor is now facing significant backlash in Japan due to the allegations.

It seems that Kim Myung Soo remains focused on his work in the midst of much controversy, and his agency has been attempting to set the record straight about his relationship with Nagano to the public.

Kim Mu Jun made his acting debut in 2020 and has quickly ascended in popularity, joining the ranks of many well-known actors across Asia.

Both Kim and his agency hope to put these damaging rumors behind them soon.
