Clarifying everything that’s happened.
This finally seems like the time. Maybe people are listening now. This may be a long thread.
#ApologizeToSeungri
In this thread I’ll be going back and forth in time, to clarify what had happened. There’s so much misinformation out there about every detail. So I will use many different links, to show what was reported then what was found true and not true. #ApologizeToSeungri
News spread in January that A (Kim Sangkyo) had been harassed and beaten at Burning Sun back in November. It took two months for the news to spread. He said he was “trying to save a woman from being sexually assaulted”

Research found that KSK there were many things about this that didn’t make sense. He was friends with Moonho, Burning Sun’s CEO. MoonHo has deleted his IG again. KSK directed one of JJYs videos. Post can be found here:

As to the allegations that Burning Sun did s*x trafficking, r*pe, murder: this was circulated by a 14 year old netizen who found an article about Gangnam night clubs. It was published in 2017. Burning Sun didn’t open until 2018.

The issue though was there were many nets that spread rumors, so no one believes the truth. To this day, nets STILL bring up the prior points in an argument.

They are in encrypted excel form. Which means they cannot be tampered with. So what’s being released by the court will be factual.

It was made known that Seungri only saw one chat. That it was 20 seconds. He was unaware of what JJY, CJH and others were doing. He was upset and told them to stop. See thread:

A woman comes forward accusing JJY & CJH as well as three other non idols of r*pe.
Somehow Seungri’s name got sucked into this when he’s not involved at all.

Further clarification that JJY was the chats mastermind. The media had everyone thinking it was Seungri. We’ve known this since March. JJY & CJH had so many victims! Why weren’t they named first? Not big names. But Seungri IS.

Seungri said from the VERY beginning “stay with me, I’m not a bad guy.” He quit the business, gave up DJing, Aori Ramen and put off going to the military to make sure he was fully available for being investigated.

Reporter Kang started investigating Serungri in 2015-2016 because she had a feeling like the start of the company and the parties were something more. That she “had a feeling”.

She focused more on Seungri. She found out about JJY & CJH’s chats TWO YEARS AGO. She received info about the chats. As we know now, what she should’ve been focused on was JJY & CJH with molka and r*pe. She continued to let it go on. #ApologizeToSeungri

Completely unrelated to anything... that Burning Sun was involved but she didn’t put it together when she was being interviewed. Always trying to go away from the issue of molka in KKT, back to BS & Seungri. Her meal ticket.

Reporters always seem to choose the most destructive headlines when it comes to Seungri. Instead of “evading arrest” it could’ve been arrest warrant denied, new one not sought. hope this is all over soon & he enlists. They have dragged it out a long time
