• Song Ha Yoon’s bullying controversy: Uncle of alleged victim steps up “My Niece is being bullied again”

    The storm around actress Song Ha Yoon's alleged school bullying scandal is far from over. A man, known only as A, claiming to be the uncle of the victim, has stepped forward, voicing his frustration that "my niece is being victimized again by the agency."

    On April 5th, A dropped a bombshell in a comment on the YouTube channel 'Chief Crime' of JTBC, which was the first to report the allegations of Song Ha Yoon's school bullying. He revealed that he is the "uncle of the whistleblower who claimed to have been bullied by her (Song Ha Yoon) during their school days."

    The whistleblower had previously claimed that he was slapped for a whopping 90 minutes without any reason by Song Ha Yoon back in August 2004.

    He stated that he couldn't fight back because Song Ha Yoon's ex-boyfriend was a notorious school bully, and he's still waiting for a proper apology or even a reason for the slapping incident.

    A, speaking about this, explained, "It might seem odd that a male student was assaulted by a female student, but our niece is physically small because she had a major surgery when she was a baby."

    He continued, "(My niece) graduated from a university in the U.S. and is working at a good job, so he had put it behind him. But today, I got a call from my sister and found out that the agency is victimizing him again. Why can't they give a reason for the violence?"

    He expressed his anger, saying, "Can't they even offer a sincere apology? As a parent, I'm boiling with anger."

    Song Ha Yoon's agency, KingKong by Starship, admits that Song Ha Yoon was involved in school bullying in the past and was forced to transfer schools, but they deny knowing the whistleblower.

    They're standing firm, insisting on considering all necessary measures, including legal actions against the whistleblower, legal review through a law firm, and even a broadcast ban injunction against JTBC's Chief Crime, for future fact-checking and related matters.

  • BTS's V Causes MASSIVE Crowd Chaos in Indonesia - Fans Flock to SimInvest Event for Exclusive V Merch

    BTS’s V is creating major buzz in Indonesia once again, and this time, it’s all thanks to his role as a global ambassador for the financial platform SimInvest!

    In March 2023, V was chosen as the face of the Indonesian investment platform, and he continues to hold the title for the second consecutive year. SimInvest has seen impressive growth thanks to V’s loyal fanbase, particularly among the younger generation. The platform expressed their delight, revealing that V’s influence has played a huge role in their success.

    For 2024, the platform is making an exciting move by adding legendary actor Jackie Chan as a co-ambassador alongside V. SimInvest hopes that this partnership will boost the platform’s appeal even further and help build trust among a wider audience.

    To celebrate the incredible growth, SimInvest threw an event in Jakarta from January 16 to 24. They set up a special booth at the MRT station where fans could grab exclusive V-themed merchandise and enjoy free coffee. As expected, the turnout was massive, with fans flooding the station and forming long lines. The crowd was so large that the event had to be paused multiple times for safety reasons, as SimInvest had to manage the growing number of fans. Both the company and the fans were in awe of the overwhelming "V-effect"!

    V’s popularity in Indonesia is undeniable. On Instagram, he was recently ranked as the second most influential celebrity in the world—just behind Cristiano Ronaldo. He also tops the search volume charts on Indonesia’s Google Trends for Korean stars.

    This isn’t the first time V has caused a stir in Indonesia. Back in 2021, during BTS's ambassadorship with Hyundai Motors at the Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS), a "Hyundai x BTS" photo booth saw V being the most popular member with attendees. Fans couldn’t get enough of the global superstar!

    It’s clear that V’s impact in Indonesia—and globally—continues to grow stronger, with fans everywhere eager to show their love for the K-pop icon!
