The current situation of former member Kim Garam, who was expelled from the girl group Le Sserafim due to allegations of school violence, was reported.

On August 1st, a photo under the title "Kim Garam's current situation" spread through various online communities. This is a picture of a desk full of profanity graffiti written on the desk with the name Kim Garam on it.

It is presumed that the photo was taken by a student attending the same school as high school student Kim Garam. However, the authenticity of the photo has not been confirmed.

If the circumstances in the photo are true, it seems that Kim Garam is currently experiencing verbal abuse or bullying.

Netizens who saw this gave various reactions. While there were some opinions that it was “self-improving”, the majority criticized it as wrong behavior. It is unjust for even the perpetrators of sexual assault to be retaliated against in a similar way, and violence cannot be justified for any reason. Some worried that “it would be better to quit school and take the GED than this.”

Previously, Source Music, the agency of Le Sserafim, announced on the 20th of July the termination of their exclusive contract with Kim Garam. It was interpreted that the agency, which had completely denied the allegations related to Kim Garam, actually admitted the allegation of sexual assault.

The claim that Kim Garam was the perpetrator of the school violence came out even before Le Sserafim debuted on May 2. HYBE said that the allegation was not true and foreshadowed legal action.

However, as the suspicions continued to spread after that, Kim Garam stopped activities after 18 days of debut, and left the team two months after that.

In the future,Le Sserafim will be active in a five-member system. HYBE said, "We will do our best to support Le Sserafim so that they can continue to grow as an artist."

Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
