SHINee’s Key Accused Of Allegedly Lying About Not Knowing “Injection Auntie” Was Not A Doctor

Amid the growing “injection auntie” controversy, SHINee’s Key has been accused of lying about not knowing that the “auntie” was an unlicensed professional.

In the recent official statement released by SM Entertainment, they stated that he was recommended to “A” through an acquaintance and that he “knew ‘A” as a doctor, and since they didn’t mention anything, he didn’t think receiving treatment at home would be problematic.”

However, a recent online community post accused him of lying as a previous post from the auntie stating they were not a medical professional resurfaced.

“I am not a skin care clinic dermatologist! I have never said that I was either! It might be because I held a lifting treatment event on my feed with my own money, and many speculated that I was a dermatologist because of that. I am not a medical professional specializing in skin care. I am the CEO of a company that provides services related to hospitals and medical supplies. People keep sending me DMs about skin care procedures…please stop sending them!

The only thing is that my husband has owned a business regarding medical cosmetics for the past 25 years. Living with someone in that field has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of skin and cosmetics. Considering I’ve been in the medical business for 15 years…and living with a man who’s been in the medical cosmetic field, I have more knowledge about it than others.”

K-Netizens agreed it was impossible for him not to know that she wasn’t a doctor if they had been friends for over ten years.

• “What’s even more funny is that his mom is in the medical field…just hilarious.”
• “I’ve never seen someone as cunning and sly as SHiNee’s Key.”
• “I hope he gets an investigation and goes to jail.”
• “I wonder how many injections he’s gotten over the past 10 years…”

Meanwhile, Key posted a personal message on Instagram and has stepped down from his current appearances on TV shows.
