Shukan Bunshun also interviewed the woman as reported by Insight. She claimed to have known Seungri for three years. They first met in 2013 in a karaoke and often met in a hotel room and ordering room service.

She said that at first Seungri was a bit paranoid with her, but after they got along, he became a fun person to be with. Seungri was reported to date her, but Neither Seungri, Big Bang nor the agency YG Entertainment had released any statement regarding the issue.

The 20-year old singer is the youngest member of the Big Bang which recently released a new album “Made” on Dec. 13 and has successfully topped the chart in Korea and overseas. He was scouted by the YG Entertainment in the reality TV show “Let's Cokeplay: Mnet Battle Shinhwa.” The show was initiated by the first generation idol group Shinhwa to make their second generation group.

YG Entertainment approached Seungri, whose real name is Lee Seung-Hyun to complete the other four T.O.P, Taeyang, G-Dragon and Daesung. The five of them became the YG Entertainment hip hop group Big Bang and debuted in 2006.

Seungri has enjoyed a big popularity in Japan. He had played in the Japanese movie “High & Low: The Movie” in July 2016 and has also released a Japanese solo album in October 2013 titled “Let's Talk About Love.” The album has topped the Japanese chart with more than 22,000 sales.

The scandal might taint his good image in the eye of his Japanese fans. But since the Japanese fans have not made any complaints, YG Entertainment and Seungri restrain from comment. Big Bang have also prepared the Japanese event called “Hajimari no Sayonara” for their new album “Made,” watch the promotional video below:
