THREAD:

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
KSK is currently being sued for defamation of character by four people regarding what KSK has stated were true and those suing him say were not.

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 Kakaotalk messages.

#SeungriTruth #ApologizeToSeungri
When the reports were being circulated, SBS named them as “Seungri’s chat”. Naming no one else.

KKT messages are submitted to the Anti corruption agency.

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

STILL, only Seungri named

A few days later, they still didn’t release any other names. This is why the KKT chats became know as Seungri’s (not true)

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.

JJY, CJH & 3 others are sentenced. However media still needs to involve Seungri when he wasn’t a part of it.

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.

#ApologizeToSeungri
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.

Netizens were so sure Seungri would be arrested. Those of us in the know, were ecstatic when they were proven wrong.

I’m bouncing around a bit on what I’m covering. It’s not so much a timeline, just trying to cover every aspect.

#ApologizeToSeungri
Getting to reporter Kang.

She broke the stories about what she named Seungri’s KKT chats and Seungri’s prostitution allegations.

Because she “had a feeling”

#ApologizeToSeungri
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”.

(Clip">https://youtu.be/o8PXAaedG... taken from @fresh_illumi )
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.

#ApologizeToSeungri
SBS FUNE admitted to editing at least one chat. If they edited one for the media, what else did they edit?

#ApologizeToSeungri
Concerning the one photo Seungri sent. It was a photo that he’d received from someone in the chat.
Not considered molka.

Regarding sex trafficking, murder, etc. 14 year old twitter user silkyloona tweeted this after reading the article about a book published years before BS ever existed.

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
