In a recent development within the K-pop sphere, a netizen has come forward to accuse a high-ranked manager associated with (G)I-DLE of engaging in inappropriate behavior.

The allegations have ignited concerns among fans regarding the safety of the group members.

Manager A's Alleged Misconduct

The netizen, identified only by their online handle, alleged that a staff member, referred to as Staff B, had been subjected to what they described as "disgusting" behavior from the high-ranked manager, known as Manager A.

According to the netizen's account, Manager A initiated contact with Staff B through social media platforms, despite minimal interaction during professional engagements.

During the event, Staff B dealt with other staff members more and didn't really interact with Manager A. They didn't exchange any contact information. After a few months, Manager A somehow found Staff B's Instagram account and sent her a message saying he had some questions. However, he didn't really send her any questions; it was just an excuse to get in touch. Staff B ignored it. Another few months passed, and Manager A messaged Staff B again, asking for her Kakao Talk account. Since there may be a need to keep in contact for work reasons, Staff B agreed.

-Netizen

Reportedly, Staff B received unsolicited messages from Manager A, expressing admiration for her appearance and requesting personal contact information.

One night, Staff B received a message from Manager A. Not sure if he was drunk or whatever, but he said Staff B is very cute. He wanted Staff B's phone number so he could call her before going to bed. He also told Staff B that she could call him if she ran into trouble, and more. He also asked Staff B if she was friends with Girl C, Staff B's gorgeous friend. It seems like he found Girl C through Staff B's Instagram account. In conclusion, considering he even found an ordinary staff member's contact information and pursued them proactively, Staff B feels that Manager A isn't a good person and is concerned. She wants everyone to know about this and watch out.

-Netizen

The netizen further detailed instances where Manager A purportedly made inappropriate advances towards Staff B, including comments on her appearance and inquiries about her personal relationships.

Many expressed shock and dismay at the accusations, questioning the recruitment practices of Cube Entertainment, the agency representing the popular girl group.

There are many appropriate ways you could protect someone, but this manager is disgusting. He even did this to a staff member. Manager, if you have any self-awareness, please resign. Don't make me beg. Cube Entertainment, please scrutinize your workers and take this seriously. It's not safe to have this kind of person near (G)I-DLE. Don't stay silent and not do anything; that really makes people angry.

"Hurry up and make him leave.
