After actress Cha Ye-ryeon categorically denied allegations of school bullying, a series of exposé posts continued from individuals claiming to be her former classmates.
On the 29th, Person A posted an article titled "Please stop your activities, you are the perpetrator of school bullying against an '85-born actress," in which they claimed that a female actress from Seoul Junggye Middle School was a notorious local delinquent and a perpetrator of school bullying during her student days.
Subsequently, Person B, who mentioned in the comments section that they were Cha Ye-ryeon's classmate at the time, claimed, "I cannot say for certain about major school bullying such as physical assault because I did not witness it definitively, but it is true that she was one of five female delinquents who smoked, picked on children, borrowed gym clothes and textbooks as if they were their own belongings, and intimidated classmates."
Person B continued, "Perhaps no one had exposed her until now because she wasn't that much in the spotlight. Or maybe her agency managed things well, or perhaps I wondered if there was no major school bullying even though she was a delinquent," adding, "I am leaving this post with the hope that if there was school bullying, she would definitely apologize and receive some healing."
Person C also stated, "I think it is amazing given the article claiming the school bullying is groundless. Don't you know? I believe it is human decency to acknowledge what happened back then when you were playing queen bee among delinquents and apologize to those you hit," adding, "If you ran into her in the bathroom by mistake, she would grab your chin. I thought she had a big heart since her debut."
However, another claim stated, "She was pretty at the time, and it is true that rumors about her were not good. There were quite a few people who disliked her. However, as far as I remember, she was not someone who hit or bullied others."
Meanwhile, Person A claimed to have suffered continuous bullying from the actress in question, stating, "I feel extreme pain every time I see her appearing on TV or YouTube with a smile, being consumed as a good wife, a good mother, and having a healthy image." In particular, Person A claimed that they endured physical assault and verbal abuse during their student days and have continued to suffer from the wounds of that period even after a long time has passed.
Person A further claimed, "I was bullied frequently in the classroom, bathroom, and buildings near the school," adding, "After school, I was dragged to a building near the school and physically assaulted by the group of delinquents. I mainly got hit on the cheek, to the extent that my eardrum was torn and my face swelled up."
At the time, the actress's real name was not specified in the post, but suspicions spread as some netizens pointed to Cha Ye-ryeon based on her birth year and school of origin. Subsequently, an official from Cha Ye-ryeon's agency, HB Entertainment, stated to StarNews that the allegations of school bullying against Cha Ye-ryeon are "groundless."
