Sunmi K-Pop Case Causes Observer Response
Lately, as you probably know, the Sunmi scandal is horrendous the virtual world. K-Pop fans were shocked by what happened and involved the solo singer.
It is known that Sunmi (29), who is also a songwriter, is reportedly dating a 41-year-old man. This was revealed by a South Korean newspaper media.
Lee Sun-mi was found caught on camera at the end of May when she got out of the car with the man with the initials LMJ who was allegedly her new lover. LMJ and Sunmi entered a convenience store to buy tissue & fast food.
The two lovers then headed to a hotel, they stayed there and only came out of their hotel room 21 hours later. So who is this LMJ? Unclear identity.
However, he is known to be the Vice-Chairman of a fairly well-known technology startup in South Korea. What made the Lee Sunmi scandal a scene was that LMJ already had a wife and a 4-year-old child.
So Sunmi immediately got a bad reaction and spicy comments from Kpop netizens. He is called a usurper for people’s husbands, until music observers express their opinion on this case.
From the point of view of some parties, there should be further investigation. Does Sunmi really know that her new boyfriend is married and has a toddler?
“Infidelity scandals often occur in the entertainment industry involving public figures, but we must not draw conclusions unilaterally because the perpetrators are not necessarily entirely wrong.” said a record label producer from JYP Entertainment who also commented on the case.
Sunmi debuted in 2007 as a member of the girl group Wonder Girls, she left the girl group three years later to focus on developing herself in academics at Dongguk University.
After a hiatus since 2010, in 2022 Sunmi made a comeback starting her career as a solo singer and releasing the single EP “Full Moon” under JYP & KT Music.
Since then his name has skyrocketed again, every single release and new MV for Sunmi’s song has attracted attention, especially for the boys. Because Lee Sun-mi dared to appear more open than before.
The music group Wonder Girls disbanded in 2022, Sunmi also had to leave the JYP agency and join MAKEUS, which is now changing its name to ABYSS Company for the release of the single “Gashina”.
LMJ reportedly asked Sunmi to marry after dating for about a year in secret. Management is aware of this and will conduct a more in-depth investigation of their client’s scandal.
However, that does not mean that it will take action if there is no violation of the law or disagreement from one party, the management may support Sunmi’s relationship with her new lover. (tio/ff)
