Yujeong, a member of the popular girl group Brave Girls, shares her struggles with malicious comments.

The members of KBS 2TV's entertainment program "I Am Not Alone" confessed the pain and overcoming experiences they had to endure as celebrities in episode 3, which aired today (May 14th).

Yujeong expressed her experiences of being hurt by malicious comments in the previous episode, while the members were discussing diet and malicious comments.

Yujeong hesitantly opened her mouth, claiming that the Brave Girls' popularity had "muffled" owing to a "chart reversal." She was the subject of attention, receiving no reactions from netizens.

"So I decided not to become a singer at all," Yujeong added, "but suddenly I gained a lot of attention."

However, as the popularity of Brave Girls grew, so did the number of hateful comments.

Yujeong stunned everyone when she revealed the atrocities committed by malicious commentators, saying, "When they spotted us, they called us Pig Girls and sent threatening messages to kill us."

Even after that, Yujeong's confession was expected to surprise the members, peak their interest.

The misery of the girl group members who had to bear the pouring of hateful comments for no cause broke the hearts of Brave Girls fans.

The third episode of "I Am Not Alone", which features Yujeong's detailed concerns, will air on May 14th at 10:35 p.m.

Meanwhile, Brave Girls' agency, Brave Entertainment, said last year that it would pursue legal action against harmful posts in response to continuing defamation and malicious comments.

"We have confirmed a number of hostile posts such as dissemination of fake facts and personal insults," the management company stated. "We will take frequent legal action based on continual monitoring and reporting, and there will be no tolerance in the future".

Lee Jun Young recently opened up about the emotional toll of playing a villain—and how one powerful scene made him break down in tears behind the scenes.

On the May 1st episode of KBS 2TV’s variety show Problem Child in House, Lee Jun Young appeared alongside co-star Jung Eun Ji to promote their new KBS drama Pump Up the Healthy Love.

During the show, Lee Jun Young was asked about the most unforgettable villain he’s played. He chose his role as Han Su Gang in the film Brave Citizen.

He explained, “It was really tough to film. I had to act like I was leading school violence, and there was even a scene where I bullied a grandmother.”

The hosts were surprised, pointing out how kind and gentle he seems in real life. Lee Jun Young shared how he transforms for such roles.

“I try to act as bad as I can, but sometimes the director says, ‘You still look too nice.’ Then I focus even harder and adjust right away.”

He also revealed that filming one particular scene hit him hard emotionally. “My real grandmother was sick at the time,” he said.

“In one scene, there’s a grandma selling gimbap, and I ad-libbed by stubbing a cigarette out on the gimbap. I was really into character, but after filming, I just broke down. So many thoughts came to me and I started crying.”

Fans praised his dedication to acting but also felt moved by how deeply the role affected him. Lee Jun Young’s honesty gave a raw look at how even fictional roles can hit close to home.
