Rain sues over allegedly fake nude pics

/ Yonhap

K-pop star Rain has turned to the police after an alleged nude picture of him circulated online.

On Thursday, a photograph of a man in the shower went viral. It was claimed that the person in the photo was Rain, whose given name is Jung Ji-hoon.

"It is clear that the man in the picture that is going viral online is not Rain,” Kim Nam-hong, Jung’s lawyer, told Yonhap News Agency on Thursday.

"It is defamation with a wrongful intention, so we will demand that the police punish the person that initially spread it," Kim said.

Cube Entertainment, Rain's music agency, had also strongly denied the picture to be Jung.
