서지수 강경대응



신인 걸그룹 러블리즈의 멤버 서지수가 악성 루머로 곤욕을 치르고 있다.

최근 온라인 커뮤니티와 SNS에는 러블리즈 서지수로부터 피해를 받았다는 글이 올라왔다.

해당 게시글을 살펴 보면, 서지수가 과거 일명 ‘멤버 놀이’를 하면서 폭언과 음담패설을 일삼고, 동성연애를 즐기는가 하면 상대방과 자신의 알몸사진을 촬영해 성희롱을 했다는 내용이 적혀 있다.

이어 서지수와의 친분을 증명하는 여러 사진까지 게재하며 “피해자 중 서지수 때문에 회사를 그만두거나 학교를 그만둔 사람도 있다”고 주장했다.

이에 10일 러블리즈의 소속사 울림 엔터테인먼트 측은 공식 트위터를 통해 “러블리즈의 멤버 서지수 관련해 허위 루머가 인터넷에서 돌고 있어 작성자와 유포자를 처벌해 달라는 내용의 정식 수사를 내일 의뢰할 것입니다”라고 밝혔다.

한편 울림 엔터테인먼트의 신인 걸그룹 러블리즈는 윤상이 최초로 걸그룹 프로듀싱을 맡은 팀으로 화제를 모으고 있으며, 오는 12일 쇼케이스를 통해 데뷔할 예정이었다.

서지수 루머와 공식입장을 접한 누리꾼들은 “서지수 루머 공식입장, 피해자 주장하는 사람 글이 너무 충격적이다” “서지수 루머 공식입장, 사실이라면 역대급” “서지수 루머 공식입장, 루머 유포자 왜 저런 행동을?” “서지수 루머 공식입장, 뭐지 대체…” 등의 반응을 보였다. (khnews@heraldcorp.com)

Stern action vowed against rumors about Lovelyz member


Rookie K-pop girl group Lovelyz’s label Woollim Entertainment vowed stern legal action Monday against online rumors about member Seo Ji-soo.

Flatly denying the rumors, the agency wrote on its official Twitter that it would ask the police to investigate and punish those who began spreading the claims.

The rumors spiraled out of control after a netizen posted allegations about Seo’s past on an online community. The rumor went viral amid the rising curiosity about the new girl group.

According to the post, Seo used to bully her peers in school, signed a contract with the agency to seduce members of the boy band Infinite, and is a homosexual.

The commenter also accused Seo of sexually harassing her school peers by taking nude photos of them and posting them online. The netizen added that Seo’s actions drove some of her victims to quit their jobs or school.

“There has been groundless rumors spreading about the girl group, which did not even get to debut yet. We shall take a strong legal action and there will be no settlements,” said an official from the agency.

The new eight-member group recently unveiled their pre-release track “Goodnight like Yesterday.” The girls are to hold a showcase on Wednesday before releasing the debut album on Nov. 17.
