Dylan Wang medical rumor controversy
Overview
False rumors circulated online claiming Chinese actor Dylan Wang underwent a failed cosmetic procedure in Shanghai that resulted in medical complications. The misinformation spread through leaked chat screenshots and social media, specifically alleging tissue necrosis.
In response, Wang’s studio took legal action, labeling the claims as “malicious fabrications” that damaged his reputation. The studio reported the matter to police and collected evidence. Shanghai Jinghe Medical, the facility named in the rumors, issued a statement clarifying that the actor did not receive services at their institution and that they do not perform the procedures mentioned.
Wang later addressed the situation publicly during a recording of the variety show ‘Hello Saturday’. He used humor to defuse the tension, stating, “I’m here to report that I am safe; my buddy is doing very well, and his buddy is also doing very well.”
