According to Koreaboo, recently, clips taken from a podcast program called Ab Above The Influence have been spread on many social media platforms, with shocking statements about the Kpop idol world.
The show features an influencer (a social media influencer) named Kira - claiming to be the ex-girlfriend of T.O.P (Big Bang), a male influencer named Wootak and others.
When talking, Kira accused Kpop singers and idols of engaging in high-value prostitution. According to Kira, anyone who is rich enough can go to an entertainment company and ask to spend an overnight night with idols, even big stars.
"It seems like, for every Korean celebrity in the Kpop world, there is a price on their head, if you are rich enough. For example, if you are a Chinese businessman, you can go to entertainment companies and ask them to sleep with you, even top Kpop stars, Kira said.
In particular, Kira affirmed that the price to have a night with female singer IU is 500,000 USD.
Another influencer, Wootak, also shared a shocking post related to Jennie (Blackpink). He said: "I went to a summer camp with a friend who is the son of the BMW heir, and he slept with Blackpink's Jennie. He paid her and there was a clip. He showed me the truth, so I knew it was true.
These videos currently attract millions of views on platforms. Kpop fans around the world are heatedly debating the issues and celebrities mentioned.
Most of them were critical comments because the information was baseless. In addition, many netizens are skeptical about whether the above things are true or not, because in reality, similar incidents have been exposed.
Wootak later explained, "I don't hate or attack Jennie, I just tell the story I've heard. I repeat this because it is a topic of the dark Kpop industry, why idols have a high suicide rate and how crazy the bonding contracts can be.
Meanwhile, another podcast member added more fuel to the fire when expressing an attitude of challenging Kpop fans, calling Kpop fans "crazy".
Currently, fans of Jennie, IU and other celebrities are simultaneously demanding that management companies take legal action to extinguish baseless news that is spreading and protect their artists.
