ATBO Yang Donghwa, apologizes after admitting to school violence ... Debut eventually canceled
He was also exposed to have bullied schoolmates, smoked when he was underage, etc
I'm one year his junior and I went to the same middle school as #YangDonghwa. Smoking and drinking alcohol were basic things for him. He extorted cigarettes and money from others when he needed to. Not only Junggye Middle School students, but everyone around our school district knew about it. He was friendly to certain friends and juniors back in high school, but he would punch bathroom doors when he got angry.
I was a schoolmate of that Yangddaeng-ie guy. While rumors of him hitting disabled students aren't true, he did bully and mock them. Some kids were bullied so badly, they cried in the bathroom. He also made remarks like, 'If they have dated for that long, they must've slept together right?ㅋㅋㅋ' about students who were dating and made jokes about it with his friends. Back in elementary school, he made his homeroom teacher, who never got angry, outraged. He also made jokes about my parents like, 'Your mom's a b*tch*'ㅎ Smoking and drinking alcohol were basic things for him.
I was using the searching engines and came here because of that 'Yang' guyㅜ I'm his junior back in middle school and from what I remember, I think he bullied a disabled student? A student from my year reported him and he got disciplined for it..ㅎㅎ
Despite all of this, he actually released a solo album back in February because he's signed with an agencyㅋ
He is currently gaining attention for his skills in the survival show and getting a lot of screen time, so his ranking is likely to keep rising. Honestly, the fact that the production team even allowed him on the show shows how f*cking thoughtless they are.
Korean votes are practically meaningless in this survival show (It's dominated by Chinese' paid votes + it isn't aired widely, so most people don't even know it exists)
It's mostly foreign fans who are voting for him.
Among them, those who expose truths about him are being mobbed with comments like, "Do you even have the proof it happened?" or "He's already been forgiven, isn't that enough?"
As I said above, there are almost no Korean fans.
There are also foreign fans who don't even know about his controversy.
And even though Yang Donghwa himself admitted to the school violence, there are still foreign fans who claim it's just a rumor. So I'm writing this for them to see!
If his controversy resurfaces in South Korea, I'm sure they'll f*cking see it.
I hope he would step down from the show and stop causing harm to other trainees who joined this show because they're desperate and it's the last chance they have.
-As I read this, I thought "Does this guy have anger issues? He seems like a psycho..." After seeing the attached photo, it's clear that he was doing all kinds of bad things during his school days. Debuting with someone like that would definitely be a minus for the group. Are there really no better contestants for this survival show?
-How can he even think of debuting as an idol?ㅋㅋ
-All he did during his school days was bullying others and acting out. Someone like that shouldn't debut. Where does he get the nerve to join this show anyway?
-He has a really thick skin... Is it because he's a school bully?
-Are the fans of the other participants not protesting?? This is so scary.
-How do high school students even get into those private drinking rooms? It's fascinating.
-He already has so many evidence surfacing. If he debuts, I'm sure more evidences will come out. Can he even handle that?
-Why does he keep trying to debut?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ He bullied others and yet he expects to receive love from people?
-Koreans are so f*cking sensitive about school violence cases. Where does he get the nerve to debut?
-I think his groupmates probably would hate to have him in the group.
-Who's voting for this guy?? What did the other trainees do wrong to deserve this?
-F*ck?? This is the show that Hangyul is participating in. He should get lost.
-Crazy... Just quit, you f*cker.
-It's ridiculous how he still has the nerve to participate in another survival show after getting his debut canceled.
-I mean... If you want to be a celebrity, you should've lived your life properly from the startㅋㅋㅋㅋ Why is he keep trying to get into the entertainment industry? Go do something else.
