A third K-pop star has departed the entertainment industry in a growing sex scandal that is engulfing South Korea’s normally straight-laced pop music scene. 

 

Yong Jun-hyung, 29, quit his band, Highlight, on Thursday after admitting to viewing a secretly filmed sex video, allegedly sent to an online chatroom by another high-profile TV personality, Jung Joon-young, 30, who stepped out of showbusiness earlier this week to face a police investigation into the accusations. 

 

In an Instagram statement Mr Yong said his behaviour had been “extremely unethical, and I was stupid,” reported the Yonhap news agency. 

 

“I’ll leave Highlight since I realised the seriousness of the issue and don’t want it to bring further damage to my fans,” he said.
