On September 5, he responded by posting a letter to his homepage and the Facebook of his agency BH Entertainment. The content of the letter is as follows:
"This is Lee Byung Hun.
I know that many of you felt extreme disappointment due to this recent incident. Neither my mind nor my heart are working properly, and I'm currently passing the time by just breathing.
No matter if the incident was planned or whether I was threatened, before I blame those things I know that it all started because of my carelessness and lack of virtue, and I deeply regret my actions and am spending my time reflecting on them. As an actor who received love from many people, I'm feeling the responsibility in my bones.
And what's most important and causes me the most pain is that I disappointed and hurt those I love and care for the most. Though they're receiving so much unwanted attention and going through a difficult time because of me, I'll be trying my hardest for the rest of my life to no longer disappoint my family and wife who've stood beside me.
Though I can't take back the disappointment I've caused you, I'll use discretion for everything in the future. I'll try to live by doing my best with the work I'm given, and I will always reflect on how big the responsibility of the love and interest you give me is."
As reported previously, Lee Byung Hun filed a police report against GLAM's Dahee and model 'B', who blackmailed the actor for 5 billion KRW (approximately 5 million USD) using an allegedly damaging video as leverage.
