[WARNING: Though most of the photos have been censored, there are still some photos of a sexual nature that could be upsetting.]

 

'THE FACT' met up with 'D', one of Seo Ji Soo's alleged victims.

 

'D' claimed that there were many events to the Seo Ji Soo incident with "JisooLuv" that the public did not know. Further, she claims that was also one of the people that Seo Ji Soo threatened. She first met JisooLuv during the police investigations into the sexual harassment claims against Seo Ji Soo because she was also involved in the investigation.

'D' had actually recorded conversations between JisooLuv, herself, a third victim, and a Woollim representative at the investigation. During the conversation, the Woollim rep asked, "[You said you dated Seo Ji Soo], but did you two actually confirm your feelings for each other?", to which JisooLuv answered, "Seo Ji Soo's sexually harassing remarks were not when she was doing her 'member play' but when we were dating. She even recorded a video where she called my real name and told me she liked me."

 

The 'Member Play' that JisooLuv mentioned is a role play community where people have conversations while role playing to be idol group members. JisooLuv and Seo Ji Soo met on one of the role playing communities. However, JisooLuv said, "If you understand 'Member Play', you will get it. We met there, but had a deep relationship while we dated and even shared our house addresses. Of course, from the outside, you could ask, 'how is that proof?', but if you say that, you won't believe anything no matter what the proof."

 

 

The Woollim rep said, "Seo Ji Soo actually did tell us. I probably was the first one she talked to when the situation happened. She said, 'I was really lonely and exhausted then. I don't know what emotions I treated them with back then, but I don't understand why things are becoming so negative." However, on the sexually harassing remarks Seo Ji Soo made, the Woollim rep did admit, "Those comments and expressions are in fact sexually harassing, and it is true those actions themselves are morally problematic."

 

 

Two months later, the trio met up with another Woollim rep as well as Woollim's lawyer. The lawyer told JisooLuv, "You talk about how you had to go see a therapist, but don't you also have to think about Seo Ji Soo? Her face is everywhere. Also, if you promise to apologize and never let this kind of thing happen, I can actively tell the label, 'We don't have to ruin a young person's life. Let's forgive her.' If this goes to court, it can get very lengthy. We won't have to go to court every time, but you might. That's going to be stressful."

 

However, after a short break, the lawyer changed his words and said, "After the label releases the press release, you must stay silent without any sort of apology. No matter who asks online or which reporter asks, don't say anything."

 

JisooLuv then said, "I want you to at least admit that it was not all made up. From that point on, all the hate will come to me," but Woollim said, "But you are not a public figure. You need to take responsibility for the situation that is your fault." When JisooLuv said, "Even the truth will all get cleansed," Woollim said, "I don't know what you mean by cleansing. We will simply say that the prosecutors have decided it was false and that we will be suing for defamation of character."

 

 

 

On May 6th, JisooLuv met again with the lawyer, where she received the agreement where she must stay silent for Woollim to cancel the suit. If she did not, she would have to pay 100 million KRW in fines (for the defamation claims). 

 

Woollim said, "I did not confirm the press release, but the general idea is this. There is a suit where posts about Seo Ji Soo were posted from another place. Since she is underage, the case has been sent to juvenile court. It'll [the press release] have that. If we write details, it won't be good for JisooLuv or us, so we'll make it dry. We'll write the indictment as well as saying that we will take a strict stance on those who try to harm the label artists with baseless rumors."

 

JisooLuv's guardian said, "Both sides were harmed. JisooLuv and your side were both invested, and since there were parts that were false as well as parts where the victim and Woollim both agreed on a point. Shouldn't that be in there [the press release]?", but Woollim said, "You say both sides were harmed, but it doesn't make sense from our point of view. The harm that JisooLuv received from Jisoo is something she has to work out personally, or something she has to prove by herself." They added, "Even if she did sexually harass JisooLuv, try suing her anywhere. Try suing for damages or even as a criminal case. JisooLuv is at a very disadvantageous situation objectively."

 

'THE FACT' called Woollim on the 11th and asked about such an agreement, they said, "How is that even possible? We have never met with JisooLuv. Try calling her yourself." On a second call, they again said, "It's not true at all. You can call JisooLuv." However, 'THE FACT' did note that JisooLuv could not speak of the situation at all as it was part of the agreement.

In an interview with 'THE FACT', 'D', who dated Seo Ji Soo in 2010, mentioned that JisooLuv had taken a break from school and had been to the emergency room so many times because she cried so much. She also emphasized that all the victims wanted was the truth, and to receive an apology. She personally had wanted to meet Seo Ji Soo to see what she would say for herself.

Given this new information, do you think Ji Soo should be allowed to promote with Lovelyz?

How are her fans gonna try to dismiss this now? Its more than one girl claiming this happened at the moment and just what would they get out of it? Jisoo isn't rich. They have no motive. 

[racquelle2005]

this is a mess   when is woolim gonna release a statement

[Keijiro]

Woolim fuck you say something

[gayness]

 

 

so they were role playing? or what. I don't get it. 

[sane]

The saga continues 

[gummybear_dragon]

still seems pretty fake, imma wait

 

when will this mess clear up ffs

[Chioma]

I dont get her.

 

First she says she is a victim

 

Then she says she was only doing this to spread the word. And that she was helping the victim. and that she isnt the victim. 

 

Now she is the victim. 

[dopamine]

Assuming this is all true, then I'm starting to see the clear picture here. 

 

Here's my theory. Jisoo, either being lesbian or experimental, met a girl on a roleplaying site and the two liked each other so much they decided to meet in person. They got into a relationship and Jisoo truly liked this girl, hence all the pretty letters and gestures she did. After some time Jisoo, in a supposed emotionally trying time (as the post says), sent her girlfriend sexually suggestive content, not with the intention to harrass, but the girlfriend felt burdened by said messages. The relationship started to go sour and it ended on a bad note. Now years later when Jisoo is about to debut the girlfriend comes out saying she was harassed, and maybe she was really affected by it, but Jisoo was unaware of her feelings. Now, because she is a public figure, she can't have people knowing of her past and her sexuality, hence why she was nervous at being discovered and hence why the ordeal and the public response affected her to the point of being hospitalized.

 

All in all, they had a relationship and Jisoo was the more dominant partner, and she made a girl uncomfortable, which is not ok, but she is not a criminal like all the actually proven false rumors suggested she was. Sexual harassment is an offense, but to the degree suggested in the "victims" accounts it does not make it seem to be of criminal level.

[jennaayy]

Mess because they actually have a recording of the Woollim rep admitting that SJS was indeed guilty of sexually harassing them

 

 

Jisoo fans shouldn't shield her because this is concrete proof

You forget a angry women can do great things.

Why people gotta be such a pain. I hate people, I need alien friends in my life.

[Cheesus]

Now I'm really confused af for this thingy

[newgoo]

"She also emphasized that all the victims wanted was the truth, and to receive an apology. She personally had wanted to meet Seo Ji Soo to see what she would say for herself."

 

idgi, if all they wanted was the truth and an apology then why did she go as far as to make up horrible things which she admits weren't true? seems more like she wanted to hurt or get revenge at Jisoo because the things she said that weren't true had and have the power the destroy Jisoo's life. By saying that she's acting like she only wanted justice and good terms but her previous actions seem otherwise, I guess this is her attempt at giving herself a good image. I said it before but this girl seems to be quite calculative. 

 

You can't claim you want the truth after you spread so many lies smh

[Sicaa]

Can someone give me a summary involving her? Lol never paid attention to her scandal.

[xharuharux]

well accusations really don't come from no where. 

i hope the alleged victims stick to their case and fight for what they've been through 

[hvnbins]

I thought this was over :/

That's D the article is talking about. Not a new person. 

 

EDIT: Also how does anyone know if the people on the audio are actually who they are claiming they are? If she and Jisoo did meet on that site then where is her proof? Because so far the only "evidence", and I use that word lightly, that she has offered has either been fake or doctored. And she admitted herself Jisoo didn't physically abuse her like Jisooluv, who cosplayed as a victim, said happened. They claimed Jisoo abused her physically and mentally but then she just admitted is only words that Jisoo "abused" her with. 

[l�l��]

sometimes this seems a complot 

sometimes this seems pretty real 

 

but there's something wrong with this Jisoo girl indeed 

[maybe]

Still sounds fake af

[ddeok]

isnt the fact known to hate woolim? didnt they release a negative interview on sunggyu too

 

anyways jisoo didnt even do anything bad she was just a big sexually curious. no wonder woollim's telling "D" to shut up since she's making it seem like jisoo's a criminal

[dopamine]

well accusations really don't come from no where. 

i hope the alleged victims stick to their case and fight for what they've been through 

 

 

Fight for what exactly though? They said they only wanted an apology in the end? The degree to which Jisoo supposed "harassed" them is not criminal. 

[NORIKIYO]

That's D the article is talking about. Not a new person. 

D isn't the only alleged victim
