Actor Ahn Seha (real name Ahn Jaewook), who has been embroiled in allegations of school violence, was dismissed as the promotional ambassador for the Okcheon National Theater Festival just four days after his appointment.

Okcheon County in Chungbuk appointed Ahn Seha as the promotional ambassador for the 1st National Theater Festival, scheduled to be held from the 4th to the 7th of next month, and held the appointment ceremony on the 9th. However, the next day on the 10th, allegations of school violence surfaced. The county decided to dismiss him after consulting with the Chungbuk Theater Association, the organizing body of the festival.

A county official stated, "Regardless of the truth of the school violence allegations, since reports related to the suspicions are being made, we judged that there would be problems in performing the role of promotional ambassador and decided to dismiss him."

Ahn Seha is currently facing allegations of school violence. On the 9th, a post appeared on an online community bulletin board claiming, "Ahn Seha was a member of a delinquent group during middle school," and alleged that they were subjected to school violence by him. In response, his agency, Hoonus Entertainment, issued four statements between the 10th and 11th, completely denying the allegations and announcing their intention to take legal action.

Despite the agency's denial, the professional baseball team NC Dinos canceled Ahn Seha's scheduled ceremonial first pitch at the Changwon home game on the 15th, and the musical "Gentleman's Guide: Love and War" also canceled his appearances on the 19th and 24th of this month, replacing him with another actor.
