• Wait, so what's the scandal? hahaha

  I don't see anything scandalous with the pictures taken and her having a cute boyfriend. Even if she is 17 years old, the photos look fine to me. If Jnetizens are giving her grief for this, they crazy and this is so sad.

  • the guy in the bed and the guy giving her a piggy back ride is the same person right?

• The only thing bothering me is that the boy was wearing his T-shirt inside out, and it's dirty too (looks like it's covered with cat's fur or something)

• The 2nd photo reminded me of IU's photo which caused a huge scandal back then.

  • Right xD... man right when Hyukjae was appearing in BoA's live performances and there were so many shippers for them esp after her appearıng ın SJ's radio program too. Then boom suddenly IU 'accidentally' posted her photo with ım ın bed. . . old tımes lol

• The supposed "scandal" here is her having a normal relationship while being a member of AKB48. That not supposed to happen and goes against the purpose of that group. They have to be available for their fans' fantasies.

  Being a member of them means strictly following a staged formular throughout their career as a AKB48 girl until the leave the group (aka graduating from AKB48). Especially that helpless, naive and innocent lolita image that male fans get off of.

  They are wildly popular among Japanes males of all ages. Men that could be their dads or grandfathers!!!

  There are researches who argue that groups like AKB48 created/ feed the whole JK business (which is not always as harmless as it often been portrayed by the clients of those JK services).

  I'm disgusted by the system that allows underaged girls being exploited for sexualised fantasies for mens. It transfers to a real problem in real life that other underaged girls are being exploited by the Japanese obsession with very young girls. I'm not exaggerating. Just in the recent years there has being first laws that prohibit child pornografie.

  There is a difference between the Korean idol system and the Japanese one.

  • That is something that really sickens me too.

  • U are just a pathetic sjw who trying to force western ideals to a totally different culture. And yes, there is really a difference between Korean and Japanese idols. Japanese idols are more or less natural, dont have to be perfect, growing through training, etc. Meanwhile Koren idols are just soulless products, trained like dogs, working until fainting and get almost no money.

  • i think u have a negative perspective about J idol,your opinion just look like j idol is icon for pornography.i still don't get it why a lot of people still think a same way as you and always connected young Japanese girl with something porn.seriously i have no idea wth are you talking about..fans fantasy huh?that's is only your self claim.There a lot of people really like AKB48 song even they don't have no idea wth is AKB48..

    Japanese culture is not like what you think..JK business is enjo kosai.Enjo kosai is ''Service businees''.. Idol is a Showbiz..JK girl duty is for ''satisfaction'' while idol duty is entertainment.Sadly to the people who think AKB48 is same is JK businees.They really don't understand the analogy meaning behind AKB48 song ''Seifuku ga jama wo suru'' and that is such a waste effort of Aki-p write that song if no one understand it..yes AKB48 have a lot fans from middle age man but i'm pretty sure you don't know there a fans is really cheering and support the idol as their true daughter and their true grand daughter instead fantasy lover.If this old age men want girl in JK world with their money,power and position they can get a girl EASILY anytime they want.since many JK girl work in the Akihabara area which is a coincidence same place with AKB48 theater people is easily misunderstanding it is a same businees..this statement is from 51 y.o AKB48 fans who spend over 6 million yen to support his fav idol and never ever want a special payback from their fav idol..and definitely it is not a wrong way to spend a money to something/someone you like..more over since when age restriction became issue when became a fans??It's a same thing if you are old male/female and you became a fans of other young celebrity so what disgust thing here????

    Sexual exploited??Most AKB48 outfit for single or song is seifuku(school uniform) or long dress and they can sold the single even better..that's a proof your self claim about sexual exploited for get some profit is wrong..if you say sexual exploited is about their wearing bikini in their 3 PV as far i know is (heavy rotation,ponytail shu-shu and labrador retriever)why don't you just compare it with ordinary girl using Bikini on the beach or in a pool or the girl who wearing swimsuit in Olympic game in the gymnast event or swimming event?It's about a concept since ponytail and labrador is a summer song.Don't say that you suggested they must wear 3 layer jacket at the beach in summer season to eliminate ''sexual exploited issue'' if yes than you need your medicine..the different here is the way you thinking..

    In fact let's see how about Kpop idol wearing short tank top and wearing a fit hot short pants like a nightclub b*tc#??i'ts not consider as sexual exploitation among fans?? nahh..it's bullsh*t..that's a truly ridiculous of mind thinking..!!!

    yes..i agreed when you say korean and japan idol system is differance,at lease j pop idol showing their effort not a perfection and self independent to chase their dream and not became soulless ''product'' and became a ''slave'' to their talent agency like a systematic Kpop do.And fans fantasy?huh that's is just your self claim,there are lot of people really like their song even they don't even know that group..

• Thank you for the information. This is so sad and so sick :/

• I hope she is okay though and whoever decided to do such a low down dirty trick and release those photos. She’s only 17 years old and managed to make a name for herself as a J pop idol in such a short space time. She’s most likely has a huge fanbase to support her as a solo artist. At least she’s keeping it real. And being in love is even better.

  • I feel bad that her privacy was violated like this, she's a minor :/ and I know it's a problem that the idol music systems exist to feed fan fantasies, it might be better for her to get out of that kind of system instead of having to pretend she's single for her fans.

  • Japan is a totally different world, you cant understand with western standards. Most of her fans will leave her, because it looks like she doesnt care about hurting them. Also there is the fact that she violated her contract, betrayed her company, that is a big problem in a society where respect and duty are everything.
