Choi Tae-woong, a member of the group Bz-Boys (Cheonggong Children), denied that he was the perpetrator of the school violence revealed by an eating YouTuber.

On December 31, Choi Tae-woong said on his SNS that the recent allegations of school violence were "clearly false." It also said that it is in the process of filing a complaint on charges of defamation of false information under the Information and Communication Network Act.

Choi Tae-woong refuted that the timing and class information he mentioned were different from the facts. He mentioned his 4th grade in 2003, but Choi Tae-woong claimed, "The only time I was in the same class was in the 6th grade, and I was in the 5th class at that time."

He also denied allegations that he ran his own 'anti-café'. Choi Tae-woong emphasized, "I have never opened or operated an anti-café at all, and I have never even written a comment." However, he added that he was ashamed and reflected on the carelessness of joining the cafe after being swept away by the atmosphere as a vice president of the class at the time.

In addition, regarding the claim that he tried to contact him through SNS, he explained, "I have not received any contact." Choi Tae-woong appealed, "Narum TV mentioned a specific audition program and debut history to make themselves identified, and even acquaintances are suffering enormous damage, suffering from malicious comments."

Finally, Choi Tae-woong said, "I sincerely ask you to calmly look at the facts as they are beyond stimulating expressions."

Earlier, Jayeon claimed on her YouTube channel "Narum TV" that she had been victimized in the past, revealing that one of the perpetrators appeared in Season 2 of the Mnet audition program "Produce 101." He also said the perpetrator ran his own anti-café. As a result, Choi Tae-woong was identified as the perpetrator of the school violence.

Meanwhile, Choi Tae-woong appeared on Season 2 of "Produce 101" in 2017 and made his face known. Since then, he has debuted with Bz-Boys (Cheonggong Children) in 2019 and has been active.

Hello, I'm Choi Tae-woong, who has been named the perpetrator of school violence in elementary school due to a video posted by YouTuber "Narum TV" recently online.

First of all, I sincerely apologize for the confusion and inconvenience this has caused to many people. However, when things that I did not do were repeatedly mentioned as true, and my life and reputation were severely damaged by it, I decided that I could no longer remain silent, so I made my position clear.

This article is not intended to attack anyone or express feelings, but to summarize what I know as it is.

First of all, the main things that TV said were obvious in its YouTube videos are not true.

My TV mentioned that I was in class 7 in 4th grade with me in 2003, but I was in class 5 when I was in 4th grade. I was in the same class as TV when I was in the 6th grade, and the expressions of 4th grade class 7 and 2003 mentioned in the video are all untrue.

My own TV mentioned that I was the one who led the creation and operation of anti-café targeting TV, but I have never opened or operated such a cafe, and I have never written or commented on it.

Also, Jayeon TV said that he contacted me through SNS, but I have not received any contact from Jayeon TV through SNS such as Facebook.

To tell you what really happened, it's as follows.

I was in the same class as TV when I was in 6th grade. At that time, some female students led the creation and activities of their own anti-cafes for TV, and male students, including me, were encouraged to join from female students who took the lead.

Accordingly, several male students, including myself, joined the cafe, but they had no intention of engaging in activities that bothered certain people, so since joining the cafe, they have not done any activities such as accessing the cafe and writing articles, comments, etc. Therefore, I didn't even know what activities took place within the cafe.

After that, the homeroom teacher found out about the existence of the cafe, and the students who joined the cafe gathered together to consult. We apologized and exchanged letters with each other on the spot, and I remember that TV himself said to the teacher at the time, "Boys know that they are not at fault." I understand that the cafe has been organized since then.

Looking back at myself when I was in the sixth grade of elementary school, I think I was too young and immature. I was the vice-president of the class and joined the cafe without fully considering the meaning in a situation where several people were encouraged to join the cafe. I'm ashamed of this rash behavior, and I'm looking back and reflecting on myself. However, as it is known, there was never a fact that I took the initiative in opening or operating the cafe or leading the school curriculum.

Nevertheless, Myun TV recently posted a video on Instagram and TikTok accounts to the effect of "the story of a school violence perpetrator who made him want to make an anti-café and live as an idol," and later uploaded the second and third follow-up videos one after another.

From the first video, Myun TV identified the audition program I appeared on among the numerous audition programs, and mentioned that I debuted as an idol after I was eliminated from the program, and that I was an elementary school classmate with myself. I was the only one who met all of those conditions, so my TV posted the video with me specified in the first place.

In fact, there were many viewers who guessed that the person in the video was me right after the first video upload, and a number of malicious comments were posted on my personal account that concluded me as a "crime perpetrator." These malicious comments spread to my acquaintance's account, and my name was exposed as a related search word and even related articles were reported.

In particular, after the subsequent videos were posted, hundreds of viewers flocked to my TikTok live broadcast, leaving malicious comments, causing damage that made it difficult to proceed with the broadcast. I'm continuing my career activities through TikTok live, and the disruption from this is very serious at the moment.

In the absence of confirmation of specific facts, I have already opened and operated an anti-café for TV, leading the school curriculum. The fact that I have to endure constant criticism for something I haven't done is a huge pain for me, and it bothers me even more that my family and friends are being harmed together. Currently, daily life is also difficult to maintain due to anxiety and fear.

In this situation, I received legal counseling to prevent further damage and am currently filing a complaint against my own TV for defamation of false information under the Information and Communication Network Act.

Some say, "Why did you come forward and file a complaint when you didn't even know that the person in the video was me?" However, I decided that I could not be left unattended because the content mentioned by my TV alone had no choice but to specify me and that irreversible damage had already occurred, such as suffering from numerous malicious comments since the first video was posted.

My own TV said in its video that I don't want to fail or that there will be a shining time someday, but I've already become the perpetrator of a school violence who took the initiative in opening someone's anti-café or posting abusive messages and giggling at the posts.

My TV said that I uploaded the video as a talk content about my daily life, but as the videos that my TV continuously made spread, a very serious problem occurred in which my life and the foundation of my life that I have built up so far were shaken.

Also, in the video, it is very confusing about the intention and authenticity of the TV because it is conducting and encouraging joint purchases of strawberry mochi products that it advertises.

I'd like to tell you one last thing. All untrue stories have spread as if they were true, and the current situation in which I am judged to be the main driver of the school violence is causing me unaffordable wounds and pains. My TV uses specific numbers and expressions to tell me that one's memory is the perfect fact, but even those numbers are already all untrue, and the main content is mostly untrue. Above all, I have never committed any violence against TV. I sincerely ask you to look calmly at the facts as they are beyond stimulating expressions.
