No, the positioning of the images makes it clear that Lero-Ro, at least, thought that Akyung was an Irregular. See here:  http://www.batoto.net/read/_/18240/tower-of-god_v1_ch56_by_the-company

There's no reason for Akyung's image to be in that page if Lero-Ro didn't think he was an Irregular. And the wording seems to imply that he thinks there's another irregular present, aside from Baam and Rachel. On the other hand, it's possible that the images only show Lero-Ro's perceptions and not reality.

Personally, I like the theory someone posted above (Akyung wasn't an irregular at all, but he was passed off as an irregular by FUG or by someone similar in order to deflect attention away from Rachel, the actual Irregular in that group.  We know that they can detect when Irregulars enter, but they clearly don't automatically know who the irregulars are if they're not there to witness them; so lots of people would benefit from telling people that Akyung is an Irregular in order to deflect attention from Rachel.  Especially FUG, whose ultimate goal requires sneaking an Irregular up the tower into shooting distance of Zahard.)

It doesn't seem that Yu Han Sung believed that Akyrung was an Irregular -- he basically ignored the guy when talking to Rachel, which doesn't seem like something FUG would do (given how badly they need one as a Slayer.)
