Apink Chorong has reportedly met up with classmate that exposed her bullying.
On the 28th, Park Chorong's agency IST Entertainment revealed, "Chorong and A have agreed to clear up all misunderstandings and drop all lawsuits they have filed against each other, and are currently in the process of withdrawing the complaint. Recently, the two met separately and had a meaningful time and listened to each other stories excluding everyone around them. They continued their candid conversations by confiding in all the uncomfortable feelings they had about each other."
A, who previously identified herself as Chorong's elementary school classmate, alleged in March last year, that "Chorong and her friends gang assaulted her after she ran into Chorong in high school." In response, Chorong's agency filed a criminal complaint with Gangnam Police for defamation, false facts, and attempted blackmail and A filed a countersuit claiming she was innocent of alleged claims.
In December last year, the Gangnam Police Station decided to dismiss charges against Chorong with "no charges." Meanwhile, A was found "guilty" of intimidation based on her false facts and forwarded to the prosecution with an opinion for indictment.
- [+856, -204] She "settled" it with settlement money.
- [+558, -112] Hey! Read the article until the end before leaving a comment. "It was concluded Chorong was innocent and A sent to the prosecution under opinion of indictment.." People claiming she solved it with money must be a bunch of dyslexics!?
- [+251, -48] Did the kids that keep saying "she solved it with money" actually read the article properly? Or are you interpreting the article with your ignorant brains!? She was acquitted of all charges and classmate indicted for blackmail and false facts! She's a saint for dropping the charges. Don't make it too obvious with your ignorance..
- [+131, -27] School bullies need to be exiled from society!
- [+71, -8] Withdrawal is the only answer! It's because of trash kids like her that our youth never learn!
- [+59, -35] If she has any conscience left, she should exit the entertainment industry! Anyone embroiled in bullying scandal, if they have any decency left, should not be promoting right now. What kind of education did she get at home? She needs to retire from the industry for such a shameful crime or get isolated as a criminal from society...because what she did was a crime..
- [+58, -49] How much did she put out?
- [+29, -1] She might've felt like being a school bullying isn't a big deal for her, but victims suffer mental growth disorders for the rest of their lives. There are so many cases of bullying and bullies all over, it's only the victims who suffer. Those past memories can cause a disability, it's not an easy issue.
- [+26, -5] I'm sorry but her image has already hit rockbottom. This doesn't negate what she did...would there be smoke without a fire? There are so many celebrities who are popular right now even though they were bullies as kids.
- [+21, -4] So were the photos taken at a bar while she was underage fake facts too? Or is she claiming that she drank and played with such trash friends but never bullied? Anyway, her clean idol image is gone.
- [+18, -7] There's no smoke without fire..
- [+10, -1] Looks like the deposit cleared..
