Accuser Responds to Starship Entertainment's Official Statement

Starship Entertainment was quick to defend MONSTA X member Kihyun when school bullying accusations made rounds online. The agency, also, made it clear that it is serious in taking legal action against the complainant for spreading malicious rumors about the K-Pop idol.

On Friday, Feb. 26, the unnamed accuser responded to the latest claims of Starship Entertainment. The alleged victim said that the agency was lying when it stated that some representatives of the company met the accuser in an open coffee shop insider a hotel lobby in 2015.

Instead, the alleged victim was, reportedly, asked to drop by the Starship Entertainment building, wherein he waited an hour before they started discussing about the matter. The unidentified source suggested that he was led to a law office to sign some papers after the recorded discussion and was ordered to show up in a coffee shop for another meeting.

The accuser also claimed that he did not attend his teacher's wedding because he felt that he was the outcast. MONSTA X member Kihyun said, in his fan café post, that he only remembered practicing with his classmate in the gymnasium so they could all sing at the big day of their instructor.

The alleged victim went on to say that he thinks it is best to use the wedding photo of their teacher as an evidence to prove his claims. The accuser, then, told MONSTA X member Kihyun and the Starship Entertainment he is aware that their camp is "bribing" their former classmates with money and gifts so they would give up any piece of evidence against the K-Pop idol.

The accuser revealed that he is planning to file a criminal lawsuit for school violence and is eyeing for an explosive interview. The alleged victim ended his message by saying that somebody has to face legal consequences.
