Reports of Seungri, a former member of the group Big Bang, have emerged.

On the 5th, a post was made on an online community claiming that Seungri was spotted at a bone soup restaurant in Songpa. The author, A, stated, "I saw Seungri at a bone soup restaurant in Songpa, and he was eating like a thief. With a very pretty woman."

A explained, "The place was packed with people, and everyone knew it was Seungri but pretended not to. However, the lady at the restaurant handed Seungri a large piece of paper and loudly asked him to sign it," adding, "Seungri took two bites and then got up." He continued, "After Seungri left, I told the lady (restaurant staff), 'Don't let that guy in, he's a bad X,' and she replied, 'I know too,'" revealing the address of the restaurant.

As the post gained attention, another witness also came forward. B stated, "I saw Seungri at a bone soup restaurant in Sinsa-dong. He went into a room with curtains drawn."

Seungri became a central figure in the so-called 'Burning Sun' scandal that erupted in November 2018.

Seungri was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison on a total of 9 charges, including violations of the Act on the Punishment of Sexual Traffic, prostitution, sexual violence crimes, habitual gambling, violations of the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act, violations of the Food Sanitation Act, embezzlement in the course of business, violations of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes (embezzlement), and instigation of special assault. He was released after completing his sentence at the Yeoju Correctional Institution in February 2023.

As a result of this incident, Seungri not only left his group Big Bang but also retired from the entertainment industry.
