According to the former stylist, the clip has been blown way out of proportion, and she insisted that no such “abuse” had taken place.

I am disappointed and frustrated over claims that I had been abused and that his personality was horrible. Although my face is blurred, I am disappointed and scared every time my photo is published. I am speaking up because I think Ahn Bo Hyun is going through a hard time.

The former stylist then revealed what had really happened.

At the time, there was an abrupt change in the schedule during rehearsals. I was showing Ahn Bo Hyun the scenes in the script that would be affected by the schedule change. I was looking at my phone because I was checking the times that were messaged to me.

As someone who had worked with the actor for a long time, Ahn Bo Hyun is a really good person. Even in tough situations, he discusses with the staff how best to resolve them. I am really disappointed when I see people write hateful comments after watching a short clip.
