The recent status of Burning Sun Scandal perpetrators has been reported, arousing criticism from netizens
In 2019, Seungri shocked everyone as he was revealed as a key figure in the Burning Sun Scandal. He retired from the entertainment industry and was released from prison in February last year after serving for one and a half years.
Recently on August 9th, Hallyu media media outlet All K-pop reported that Seungri would participate in a clubbing event called “Burning Sun Surabaya” in Indonesia on the 31st.
In the case of Jung Joon-young, JTBC News obtained a video of him hugging a woman at a club. The video shows Jung Joon-young with long hair and a beard. According to the informant, he is planning to open a Korean restaurant.
Former F.T. Island member Choi Jong-hoon did not seem to have any plans to return to the entertainment industry after being released from prison. However, in January, he sparked controversy by opening a community called “HUNIYA” on Japan’s largest fan community platform fanicon.
Earlier in May, BBC News Korea released a documentary re-examining the Buring Sun Scandal in detail. In particular, reporter Kang Kyung-yoon, who was the first person to report the Burning Sun crime, revealed that the late singer Goo Ha-ra played a crucial role in solving the issue of police collusion related to the Burning Sun. Back then, Goo Ha-ra contacted the reporter and said, “I saw suspicious things on their phones and I want to help in any way”.
Goo Ha-ra was close to Choi Jong-hoon so she persuaded him to help expose the Burning Sun crimes. However, the female singer passed away in November 2019. Acknowledging Goo Ha-ra’s contribution, netizens couldn’t hide their sad feelings. Some commented, “Meanwhile, Seungri is living and eating well”, “Those who committed crimes should be punished”, “She was such a courageous person”, etc.
