Foreign fans of singer Seungri and TV persona/singer Jung Joon-young have turned against the pair after the sex video scandal on Monday. Jung allegedly filmed sex videos of himself having sex with women and distributed the videos on a chatroom where Seungri was a member.
The pair made headlines on Chinese websites including Baidu, with some reports even translating their controversial conversations on KaKao Talk into Chinese.
"They did not respect women around them but instead, objectified women in their talks," wrote a Chinese online user.
Another netizen wrote, "Now, they have to be put behind bars."
Foreign fans of other nationalities are also enraged.
"I am reminded again about how he (Jung Joon-young) said that 'he'll act like he regrets it' on his scandal back in 2016. This apology letter is just plain disgusting," said an online post.
One fan said on Facebook, "Jail him up too."
A netizen commented, "It's scary to see someone you look up so much and idolized behave like this in real life."
Another wrote, "Six years loving and supporting u and bigbang, u broke all vips hearts."
Meanwhile, some of Seungri's foreign fans are still showing strong support toward, encouraging him to stay strong and come back, despite the allegations of sexual bribery.
The pair will be summoned on Thursday for police questioning. Seungri allegedly tried to buy sexual services for foreign investors, and a nightclub affiliated with him has been under suspicion for being involved with drugs.
