After School's former member Lizzy is causing concern after expressing severe psychological distress during a live broadcast on her personal account. During the live broadcast, she appeared deeply shaken by malicious comments about her looks and repeated questions, saying, "I will try to keep living," while also making extreme remarks. It seemed that her depression accumulated during real-time communication with viewers. As the live broadcast went on, her anxiety and confusion intensified, leading to an abrupt end of the live broadcast.
The live broadcast in question took place on the 28th. Lizzy said she was hurt by the aggressive comments from some viewers and explained her current state. During the live broadcast, she said, "I will try to keep living, but honestly, I really want to unalive myself," hinting at an extreme choice. Lizzy tried to stay calm by introducing her daily routines, such as skincare and travel items, but she became emotional when asked questions about plastic surgery.
Regarding the plastic surgery questions, she drew a line by saying, "You should find out for yourself," and reacted sensitively, saying, "I had no choice but to get a revision surgery due to a medical accident."The atmosphere grew increasingly chaotic as she showed signs of anxiety after losing her personal belongings. In the end, a person who appeared to be her friend joined the live broadcast, and the live broadcast was hurriedly wrapped up.
Previously, on the 31st, Lizzy shared New Year's greetings on her personal account along with recent photos, showing a polished look with a neat bob haircut and a black fur jacket. She debuted in 2010 as a member of After School and also received love as a part of sub-unit Orange Caramel with Nana and Raina. Recently, she resumed activities by holding a solo fan meeting in Tokyo, Japan.
In 2021, Lizzy was fined for a drunk driving accident. At the time, she caused a traffic accident in Gangnam, Seoul. Her blood alcohol level was reported to be over 0.08%, which is the level for license revocation. After a period of self-reflection, she had been preparing to return to activities in South Korea. However, her recent live broadcast has once again drawn concern from the public.
