The female friend posted a picture of Kim Tae Rae when they were in the senior year of high school, and sent a message to the chat room that reads, “This is Kim Tae Rae, who used to be the vice-president. Please promote him a lot. Him being the vice-president is a bit TMI, but please let many people know about this.”

In addition, the female friend revealed the contents of the message she exchanged with Kim Tae Rae.

According to the contents of the messages, the female friend said, “Don’t come out of the show (be eliminated) early,” and Kim Tae Rae smiled and said, “I’ll  come out at the end of X. I’m going to do the live broadcast (finale) and come out.”

Next, the female friend asked Kim Tae Rae, “Please let me win the ticket for the live broadcast. It will be difficult for me to go, and XX is still applying.”

When Kim Tae Rae said, “I can’t sing it because I will laugh if XX comes,” the female friend said, “We’re going to make a placard and go.”

Regarding this action of Kim Tae Rae’s female friend, some of Kim Tae Rae’s fans gave a negative gaze, saying, “Why are you revealing private things?”

Kim Tae Rae’s friend responded to the controversy, saying, “I’m politely trying not to misunderstand anymore. First of all, I want to apologize to those who feel very uncomfortable and burdened.”

At the same time, the female friend said, “Sometimes I look at Twitter after the show’s broadcast, and people really like past pictures and stories of the trainees that unravel little by little. I sent those messages to the open chat room to promote the trainee (Kim Tae Rae) because we took a lot of pictures together while we were friends in the same class.”
