After the documentary about Burning Sun was released, many information and documents about this scandal were rediscovered by the audience. Among them, a male idol in Seungri’s chat group once showed a chilling expression when looking at BLACKPINK and touching a piece of SNSD.
This person is none other than Lee Jong Hyun – former CNBLUE member. He participated in a sick discussion about the women that Jung Joon Young had slept with and also asked for more information and comments about the women who were harmed.
Before the truth was revealed, Lee Jong Hyun also had moments that when revealed, the online community couldn’t help but shudder because of the former idol’s scary “love with a beard” expression or action.
Specifically, when enjoying BLACKPINK’s performance at the 2017 Golden Disk Awards, Lee Jong Hyun had attention-grabbing expressions. At this time, many people didn’t pay too much attention and just thought he was excited by the global g.irl group’s performance. However, when the scandal was e.xposed, the online community “dug up” Lee Jong Hyun’s reaction clip and received a “rain of criticism” and disparaging words because the expression was considered unusual when looking at it. YG g.irl group.
Another time, at an awards ceremony in 2015, Lee Jong Hyun was caught looking like he touched Yoona’s (SNSD) butt. Specifically, at an awards ceremony in 2015 with the appearance of both groups CNBLUE and SNSD, when going on stage to greet the audience, Lee Jong Hyun walked right behind Yoona. However, the SNSD member was suddenly startled, looked back and Jong Hyun quickly apologized.
At this point, the online community still thinks this is a lovely moment between two idols. But when the scandal broke out, everyone froze because they realized that Lee Jong Hyun’s hand seemed to have touched Yoona. This raises suspicions that Lee Jong Hyun had a habit that was difficult to break and could not control his emotions, so he acted rudely towards the SNSD member.
After the above suspicion arose at the time the scandal was e.xposed, a representative of FNC – CNBLUE’s management company spoke up: “The rumors about Lee Jong Hyun online are not true. The wrong things that he did I did it, he admitted it and questioned himself about it.” FNC said they will take strong legal action against slander.
In 2018, Korean social networks circulated a post accusing Lee Jong Hyun of having an unhealthy lifestyle, harming fans, sleeping with g.irl group idols, having illicit interactions with fans, and harassing fans. This rumor even confirms that the former CNBLUE member was “touched” by the police many times. But at this time, Lee Jong Hyun is still a beautiful idol in the eyes of fans. This post was also criticized because it was thought that anti-fans intentionally defamed the male singer’s image.
It can be said that after the British media published a documentary about the Burning Sun scandal, information related to Seungri became even more popular.
Despite criticism, Seungri is expected to continue opening nightclubs in Southeast Asia.
Specifically, Korean media reported that the former BIGBANG member is currently finding a way to return to business activities. A close source revealed that Seungri is currently preparing to open a nightclub in Cambodia.
It is known that the male singer has completed attracting investment capital and is ready to start business.
The news that Seungri is planning to open a nightclub in Cambodia has made the online community extremely angry: “Is he really that obsessed with clubs? Then maybe he will fall back into his old ways.” , “It’s a nightclub again? Then there will be parties there, right?”, “He has a negative influence on society but he’s living a seemingly carefree life”…
Previously, Sohu newspaper reported that Seungri planned to settle in Hong Kong (China). The source added that the male singer has bought a luxury house in the Mid-Levels rich residential area, and also surveyed the premises and plans to open a nightclub in East Tsim Sha Tsui.
Upon hearing the news, actor Huong Ta – son of Hong Kong entertainment tycoon Huong Hoa Cuong – strongly objected to Seungri going to Hong Kong (China) to do business: “No one welcomes me, don’t If you’re famous, please stay away from Hong Kong (China) showbiz. Why don’t you open a nightclub, don’t bring bad things here and cause bad influence on us, go away.”
