A man who made and circulated a fake wedding invitation claiming he would marry Prime Minister Han Seongsuk was arrested by police.

The Seoul Jongno Police Station said on October 21 that it had booked a man identified as A and was investigating him on suspicion of defamation for making an invitation falsely stating that he would marry Prime Minister Han.

On October 11, A went to the Prime Minister's official residence in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, which he had listed on the invitation as the wedding venue, and encountered police. He reportedly said in front of the residence that he had come to marry Prime Minister Han.

Police took A in for questioning at the scene and later released him. He is believed not to have entered the residence.

The fake invitation made by A included a request for congratulations, saying, "Having each walked a different path, we now wish to walk one path together as a married couple."

A's name was listed in the groom section, and the Prime Minister's name in the bride section. The date and venue were listed as "October 11, the Prime Minister's official residence in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul," and the invitation also included directions to the residence.

Police plan to investigate the motive and circumstances of the incident, including whether A has a history of mental illness.
