[theqoo] SEVENTEEN MEMBER MINGYU'S ADDITIONAL NOTICE

Hello, this is Pledis Entertainment.

We would like to provide additional information on what we have been able to confirm regarding SEVENTEEN member Mingyu.

The agency contacted the person who claimed that our artist had stood by and laughed as one of their middle school classmates was being assaulted. Although the poster wrote as if they were a witness in order to remain anonymous, the poster had in fact been directly involved in the incident.

After listening to the poster’s account of events, the agency worked to confirm the facts with the people who were said to be involved in the incident, along with testimonies submitted to the agency by graduates of the school.

First, the artist clearly stated that he had no memory of the incident described by the poster and that he had never encouraged assault against another student by watching, laughing, and making derogatory comments. The poster named their attackers, so we checked the statements from the perpetrators as well as those students who were presumed to be witnesses to the incident. No one recalled the incident as happening as claimed by the poster.

The poster remembered a friend having been with them at the time of the incident and contacted them, but the friend replied that they also had no memory of the event. As there was no one who could recall the incident described by the poster, the poster contacted the agency to inform us that they would no longer continue the issue.

It is deeply concerning that this kind of claim was published online based only on someone’s memories, and that the issue is coming to an end because the memories of the event were shown to be uncertain. While it is fortunate that this and all previous incidents were shown to have no relation to our artist, it is troubling to think that there are many people who have received both serious and minor scars from this kind of claim, as well as the time and effort required to respond to these claims. However, during the agency’s discussions with the poster, it appeared that the poster had been scarred by abusive incidents that occurred during their student life that had nothing to do with our artist, so we decided to wrap up the incident without taking further action after the truth had been clearly revealed.

As of now, the agency has wrapped up all discussions and contact with those people who could be identified as relating to this issue. We will provide further updates if any additional information is made available.

[theqoo] SEVENTEEN MINGYU'S EXPOSER APOLOGY 

The poster is the person who made the exposing post about Mingyu. 
The post is basically about how they didn't actually know Mingyu and they read a post about Mingyu's alledged victim and they took the bait. The person explains that they're not a classmate of Mingyu and apologizes to Mingyu and to the fans.
They also feel sorry whether or not they get sued over this.

5. I'm not a Seventeen fan, but this is straight up evil 

6. You can't be in the right mind if you write things like that seriously ... I didn't understand it in the first place and turns out it was from a hannam community... Please sue them
