@@pruitv4 grooming is an adult tricking a kid into thinking that they (the adult) are someone the kid can trust, just to harm or take advantage of that kid. but they started dating when she was a kid and he waited for her to turn 19 so he could marry her. he basically wanted a relationship with a kid but didn't want the scandals so he waited.
The fact that they made a website about her and called her a Allen and be able to find her family members and make a website about them is so wrong

They were in USA so its possible they could go out few times but he spent more time in Korea so how did they do all the going out there.

So they need to keep their image as pure and single individuals and ban them from dating in the first 4 to 5 years

European countries most of them have got age of consent 14-16 then 17-18. So yeah, if you think of accurate age is a symbol if maturity, do you also think an immature teenager who's age is 17 years and 364 days became mature in the next 3 days? In the US majority of stats is 16 is age of consent, few of them 17 & 18. So basically you are saying she was an adult in the majority of US states BUT in this case, she's a child who could be easily manipulated?? majority of the world's age of consent is less than 17 & 18. Moreover, they met once at a concert when she was 16. So She was easily manipulated by the world's standard and became a mature adult 2 years AFTER?

Exactly, instead of looking at the number of years people should think about the maturity level of a 15 year old compared to a 21 year old. That really puts it into perspective. Also antiquated laws for the age of consent are just that old and misguided. Back in the day people were marrying off girls as soon as they got their meniscus. Raising it to 15 or even 18 was an improvement then. Now we know that a critical part of your brain for decision making isn't even fully formed until 25. Our current laws aren't nuanced or scientific

@@sharifabdullah9869i dont know anything about them, and i dont have any strong opinions on this scandal other than the fact that she was 15 when she started dating which meant that she could or could not have been groomed by a straight up adult who had already matured. However if the love was actually there, the relationship was proper, nothing indecent was going on, both parties putting in equal effort into the relationship and remained understanding of one another UP UNTIL THE EVENTUAL SPLIT, then i have nothing to say other than thank goodness the relationship ended when it started falling apart.. my Point is although 15 and 21 is hella alarming and raises a bunch of red flags, we dont know the full story and it really depends on the individuals in said relationship(im speaking in general here). we cant accurately judge people from outside lens However i agree with a few of your points, especially the last sentence in your 1st paragraph, cause whenever someone brings up that exact argument no one is ever able to answer it😂😂, like does someone who's gonna have their 18th birthday in the next couple of days just miraculously mature into an adult once they turn 18? It's funny lmao. Hell someone could be 22 and still be too immature to be in a relationship despite being past the age of consent. And i sometimes get the vibe that people always assume the absolute worst about a relationship when they hear about age gaps, like whether one of them is being used and taken advantage of, or whether the relationship is indecent, which are all VALID concerns considering the amount of crimes that happen within these situations.. But yeah i agree that age isn't a consistent determiner to how mature someone is, and i've seen and heard of wholesome and successful relationships with rather large age gaps that started with one of the people in the relationship being AROUND 18. However i agree with most people that the age gap in itself isnt the issue here, but rather the fact that it's generally NOT wise and okay for a teenager who's still in high school to get into a relationship with a working adult.. however at the end of the day it all depends on the individuals

I find it really strange that in South Korea people call dating a scandal, like it's something that's not normal and not any human being should go through. Like it's criminal to find happiness and form relationships without their fans consent. How do you think relationships are developed? these celebrities are people just like us and the idea of fans craving and demanding to know from these people are inappropriate and invasive at best, they are not puppets like one only moves if the puppeteer commands them to do.
People (idols or otherwise) should be able to date whoever the hell they want. It is LITERALLY no one's business and they don't have any right to say anything about it. If you wouldn't want someone saying these things about you, don't say them about others.

It seems at least now he understands that grooming children is wrong, tho I still feel badly towards him and don't wish to support.

First of all Swi.T didn't became successful because people accused them/felt like they copied S.E.S. Which is funny since S.E.S is far from being original. But yeah, Swi.T simply flopped. YG didn't disband them though. One of the members chose to emigrate to the states after two years of trying to succeed. After that Eunju debuted in a coed band under YG called Moogabang. The purpose of the band was said to push her and Baekyoung's ( 1TYM ) solo career. Unfortunately they didn't succeed. So the issue about sabotaging her career is definitely not true.

Right now I am 19 and if I am not wrong then she got married with taiji in this age. I can't even imagine someone of my age can be so immature. But I guess it depends in which environment you are staying. I have working parents so my parents always made sure I was extra careful about everything and think twice before making a decision.

They keep their partners private because koop stans are PSYCHO I mean, look at how they made a whole website just to find out things about her past. For what though?
