okay so this is a summary of what happened so far ( I copied and pasted it from someone who was keeping tabs) :
The people involved are Kim Garam, Yoo Eunseo (fake name), student A and student D.
Garam and Eunseo used to be friends in early 2018, but then they had an argument that lasted 3 hours, after which they decided not to be friends any longer (source: HYBE statement).
Garam made new friends, one of which was D.
D had a photo taken of her, which was showing D only in her underwear.
According to HYBE's statement, Eunseo took the picture of D in just underwear and posted it on social media via A's account, not her own.
Garam and her group of friends reported this, but nothing happened, so they cornered Eunseo themselves about this.
Garam and her friends were written up by the school of violence committee for cornering Eunseo.
According to HYBE's statement, Eunseo changed schools because she felt bad about taking the semi nude photo of D. HYBE says it was Eunseo's fault she had to change schools.
According to Eunseo's law firm's statement, Eunseo changed schools because she couldn't handle the constant bullying from Garam and her friends. The law firm says it was Garam and her friends who made Eunseo change schools.
According to HYBE's statement, Garam was bullied by others for how this whole situation went down.
HYBE says Garam never changed schools for any reasons related to bullying. She went to the primary and secondary school, and moved for high school because of her dad's job. She's still at the same high school.
According to Eunseo's law firm's statement, Eunseo was told by friends that Garam is about to debut, so Eunseo decided to make it public that she had been bullied.
As a result, HYBE released a statement that this was slander and LE SSERAFIM fans harassed her online. It went so far as to one person posting pictures of Eunseo where her face had been blurred, threatening her. Eunseo became paranoid that someone would leak her real photos and developed panic attacks, knowing that someone out there had her real pictures.
Eunseo attempted suicide.
Eunseo's parents pulled her out of school and are in the process of moving house at the moment.
Eunseo's law firm released a statement saying all of the above and further threatening HYBE to release all of their proof if HYBE keeps insisting that Garam is a victim and not the bully.
HYBE released a counter statement with the above information that Garam was only trying to protect a friend and was bullied for it.
HYBE also further stated that Garam never smoked and she never slandered "members of the same or a different group" (read Sakura and Wonyoung).
the fact that half of yall are attacking her over a fucking fight in middle school like yall didnt have multiple? yall def aint no holy mother The "victim" is no victim and she is no saint either, she dealt as much as she got, taking a picture of someone in their underwear? POSTING IT? HELLO? if i was garam and someone did that to my bestie id fuck a bitch over too, yall dont realize how serious taking someones nudes is, there have been cases where girls have killed themselves over it. but yeah lets all casually glaze over that. Also she tried to kword herself two times and shes in a faculty bc shes mentally unstable; im sorry you did that, and that you got harrased but thats also not garams fault, garam didnt make her go online and decide to "expose her" over a fight they had 4 fcking years ago all because she couldnt stand seeing her successful and saying she didnt deserve it. News flash, you didnt give her what she has on a plate, garam worked her ass off day and night while you were watching netflix lazing around in bed after transferring to a different school to get away from punishments for taking nudes. not to mention if you got all these death threats then what about garam whos face is being broadcasted across national tv and being attacked by almost everyone in korea and by all kpopies? situation works both ways too yk. also all the me too statements coming out with no evidence lmao, if yall are actually serious got to the law firm, make a statement, get your parent's to come with you and swear a oath but posting a bunch of text online and claiming that garam yelled at you for dropping her pencil case lolololol im dying so you felt the need to post that she yelled at you one time back in middle school when yall where 11 or 12 and its haunted you ever since, you must be having horrible nightmares huh? practically getting chills everytime you remember right?
someone took a snap of me slipping in 6th grade through water cause i wasnt paying attention and spread it all across the school, I found out through one of my friends, i cornered her and had a arguement and we fought all through out middle school till covid happened and quarantine ig that makes me a bully too by yalls logic i suppose. i just turned 16 on april and im one year younger then garam and "eunseo". I would not for the life of me decide to drag her down if she happened to become a celeb or public figure all bc we didnt get along and hated each other, im not that petty tf. so forgive me for not sympathizing with the so called victim. yes its sad she got death threats and human society is fucked up to do that but like i said, this wouldnt have happened if you hadnt done that first? She knew what she was doing this had happened before, she knew she was destroying a career and dont forget the kwon mina case and her being manipulative using her life as a threat.
say what you want, this whole thing started because a certain person was green-eyed and jealous that her middle school rival/nemesis was debuting and making it big while she wasn't and decided to post it and in return got attacked by a bunch sickos who told her to kword herself and then she decides to blame it all on garam bc yeah garam TOLD you to attack her and attempt to destroy her career, her face must have been so provoking through the tv right? fyi if garam is a bully then so is the so called victim; and there cant be two bullys who bully each other, that would be two people who had fight and are dishing it out, enemies, nemsis's whatever you call it but not bullys.
thats all i have to say rn until further evidence comes out but so far I stand with garam, period. HYBE defending her so ferociously and letting her debut is literally showing about garams charecter.
