Various suspicions surround Kim Garam, a member of the new female group LE SSERAFIM.

Among them are photos and articles that refute HYBE and Source Music's agency's claim that "Kim Garam never mentioned she is a fan of a specific male artist."

"The rumors that Kim Garam used rude and vulgar statements regarding other artists are maliciously false", HYBE and Source Music said on the 20th.

"Kim Garam has never stated that she is a fan of a certain male artist, nor has she ever stated negative feelings or evaluations of members of the same group or other girl groups", they continued.

Since then, photos of Kim Garam from the past have been circulating in the online community. A sticker with the words "BTS" is placed to the back of the phone that Kim Garam is holding in the photo.

Simultaneously, the article left by netizen A before to Kim Garam's debut is being re-examined.

Person A reported that Kim Garam is a fan of BTS V and that she went to school every day expressing that she (allegedly) wanted to make love with V.

Other netizens confirmed hearing Kim Garam make the words, giving credibility to Person A's claim.

Kim Garam, according to Person A, hated Sakura and Jang Wonyoung. The controversy has begun to grow after Sakura worked as LE SSERAFIM with Kim Garam.

Some netizens are questioning HYBE and Source Music's claims, saying that based on past photos and remarks, Kim Garam was most likely a BTS V fan.

Meanwhile, HYBE and Source Music said that Kim Garam, who is suffering psychologically as a result of being assaulted by many rumors, will take a hiatus from activities for a while to heal, and that LE SSERAFIM will work as a five-member system for the time being.

NewJeans quietly paused their activities after a tough legal battle… but a simple message from a fan left them emotional.

On April 12, NewJeans posted a single photo on their shared social media account, now renamed "mhdhh" (using the first letters of Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein), without any caption.

The photo was of a short, handwritten letter from a fan that read, “I love you. I support you.” Touched by the heartfelt words, NewJeans added a crying cat emoji, showing how much the support meant to them.

Fans quickly noticed and filled the comments with love and encouragement like “We’ll be here no matter what” and “NewJeans forever.”

This quiet but emotional post comes as NewJeans remains in a hiatus following a contract dispute with their agency ADOR.

Back in November, the members announced they would be starting solo schedules under a new name, NJZ, claiming ADOR had broken the terms of their contract. However, ADOR fired back with legal actions, including a lawsuit and a request to stop the girls from signing with other agencies or brands.

Last month, the court sided with ADOR, which forced the group to pause activities under the NJZ name. Their social media was also renamed from NJZ to “mhdhh” earlier this month.

Member Danielle recently opened up about her feelings in a long message on her birthday, just days after the official trial started on April 3 at the Seoul Central District Court.

Even though they’re not currently promoting, NewJeans’ fans continue to show strong support — and this small fan letter proves just how much that love means to the members.
