Wong Yuk Hei, or better known among K-pop fans as Lucas (루카스/ 黃旭熙) from the SM Entertainment groups NCT and WayV has been dominating the headlines and social media this week after various alleged victims have come forth and called him out for cheating and gas-lighting (emotionally abusing) them.
For those curious, the controversy started after a post by a netizen from Korea began making its rounds online, revealing that she was gaslighted by Lucas. The first victim, “A”, revealed that the idol showed interest in her and gave her his number. They eventually started dating shortly after.

Things apparently began heading downhill after it was alleged Lucas suddenly asked to break up. He told “A” that his schedule was too hectic and tiring. Despite that, “A” further revealed that on the day after they went their separate ways, Lucas told her that he wanted to see her and wanted to be friends again, to which she agreed.
It was said that Lucas would visit her on his days off at hotels or her apartment. She then claimed that while they were dating, he would ask her to pay for everything, including cigarettes. Lucas also allegedly told her that he couldn’t use his own card as he didn’t want to “get caught out as a celebrity”.
“A” continued by revealing that she bought him many expensive gifts, and helped him book accommodation at luxury hotels. She also accompanied her social media post with a screenshot of her conversation with Lucas on WeChat, which included his voice message that he had allegedly sent her.
While things initially calmed down, another victim came out with accusations against him which were somewhat similar to “A’s” claims. This time, the alleged ex-GF (known as “B”) came up with more evidences of the things she bought him, apart from the photos of him wearing the stuffs she had purchased.
According to “B”, she wasn’t going to air Lucas’ dirty laundry at first because they had somewhat broken up on good terms. However, she eventually decided to share her side of the story after witnessing all the allegations against him and finding out that he’s been cheating on her.
B dished that the “Boss” singer approached her and even had sex with her. Apart from that, she said that Lucas also asked for expensive gifts and told her that she was the only one he’s dating at the time. The victim then uploaded photos of him wearing the jacket she bought him in addition to another photo of him sleeping as well as the chat logs of their conversations.
WayV’s home label SM Entertainment also released a separate statement, revealing that Lucas will be suspending all of his scheduled activities to deeply reflect on his past actions. All of the contents for Lucas and fellow member of the “Kick Back” hit-maker, Hendery’s new song “Jalapeño,” including the music video, have also been postponed.
