The contents of the text messages between Lee Byung-hun and blackmailer model Lee Ji-yun has everyone talking about them once again.

Lee Byung-hun's legal authorities are going to take legal action towards Dispatch for revealing the texts.

The contents of the text were released on the 5th.

The conversation included things like Lee Byung-hun asking What's for Dinner? and him replying, "You" when Lee Ji-yun asked what he liked.

According to Dispatch, Lee Byung-hun asked for her phone number by telling Lee Ji-yun that he'd pay off her year's worth of cell phone bills that she was yet to pay. When she refused with an excuse, apparently he said, "I'll help you if you need money".

Dispatch claimed that Lee Ji-yun had to lie because he was approaching her too suddenly.

Lee Byung-hun's attorneys claim, "We regret to say that all of this hasn't been checked out and they're just false reports. We will take legal action when we find out the source behind it. Someone is also going to be responsible for the false rumors and speculations".

Lee Ji-yun's parents have claimed that although they acknowledge their daughter was wrong for blackmailing him, she was not a fraud.

They said, "Reports say that she was in need of money and that's why she did that but it's ridiculous. Her father is wealthy enough and they aren't in any difficulty. He's been sending her a monthly allowance, too".

"He's got two buildings in his name and an orchard. I am his real estate agent so I know it's true".

About the fact that she'd tried to run away to Europe, "We go on a yearly trip aborad with her. We went to Turkey last year and were going to go to Europe this year. She was just looking for tickets. If she's thought about running away, she'd gone to South East Asia where the police wouldn't find her".

Lee Ji-yun and Kim Si-won-III filmed Lee Byung-hun saying sexual jokes while drinking with them in October and blackmailed him into giving them 5 billion won. They were tried and sentenced to 3 years in prison on the 16th last month.
