As the school violence (hakbop) perpetrator controversy surrounding actress Cha Ye-ryeon continues to draw daily public attention, a red light has been turned on in the entertainment industry with the emergence of allegations against a male ballad singer from Incheon.

On the 2nd, a post titled "I have been watching for over 10 years, trying to expose celebrity school violence" was published on an online community bulletin board.

The poster, identified as Person A, claimed, "My classmates have gathered all the (materials related to the school violence perpetrator), but (the singer in question) has not left, so the kids are getting tired. We have been gathering (materials) since we were 15, and now I am 29."

In particular, attention was drawn to a comment that appeared to target a specific singer. The netizen who wrote the comment claimed, "He is a singer from Incheon, and he was truly one of the worst tough guys. He got into an agency where model students gather just because he had a sweet voice, and then they did image making for him."

Another netizen also left a comment saying, "I know that school because I am from Incheon. I looked it up as soon as I saw the comment," and in addition to these comments, an extraordinary level of interest was gathered as 400 comments were posted within a day.

The controversy is drawing even more attention as it coincides temporally with the recent school violence suspicions surrounding Cha Ye-ryeon.

Previously, Person B, who claimed to be a classmate of Cha Ye-ryeon, alleged that while attending a middle school in Seoul, he was slapped and subjected to violence severe enough to tear his eardrum by a female actress born in 1985. Although Person B did not disclose his real name, suspicions arose that Cha Ye-ryeon might be the perpetrator based on clues such as the age and school of origin mentioned in the exposure post. In response, Cha Ye-ryeon's agency, HB Entertainment, denied the suspicions, stating it was "clearly baseless."

Some voices are cautiously emerging that the school violence controversy that struck the entertainment industry in 2021 may reignite once again. At the time when the school violence issue was hot, many celebrities who caused a commotion suspended their activities and took time for self-reflection. With about five years having passed, public eyes and ears are focused on how the newly erupted school violence controversy in the entertainment industry will unfold.
