Yang Hyun Suk releases official statement on Seungri's Burning Sun controversy !
Article: Yang Hyun Suk, "Seungri resigned from Burning Sun ahead of his army enlistment, he did NOT use drugs" [official statement]
Source: Newsen via Nate
1. [+1,082, -23] His statement sounds exactly as everyone expected it to
2. [+1,013, -21] But as the Burning Sun's former owner, you're going to make sure that he is thoroughly investigated before enlisting, right?
3. [+905, -30] First of all, your career is over. Farewell, we won't see you out.
4. [+64, -1] The issue isn't whether Seungri used drugs in there or not but whether or not the club distributes it, no?? Even the media isn't interested in whether Seungri used drugs in there but whether the club was used in supplying and distributing the drugs. What is this random clarification that no one asked for? There is a mountain of things that Seungri needs to be clarifying with his own mouth right now, like what connections he has with the police and why his guards were beating victims alongside the police??
5. [+44, -1] ㅋㅋㅋ He really wants us to believe that Seungri resigned only for the army? Too bad he already went around on 'I Live Alone' bragging about being CEO of this club.
6. [+38, -0] Grab Yang Hyun Suk and investigate him too
7. [+33, -0] Yang Hyun Suk, why are you the one making a public statement about his personal business? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is Seungri's responsibility.
8. [+28, -0] Sudden talks of the army ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ it's so ridiculous, I can only laugh ㅋㅋ he never mentioned the army at all recently and now suddenly he has plans to enlist? ㅋㅋ Then why hasn't he resigned from Aori Ramen too? And why did his mother resign from the club when Seungri's the one who has to go serve? None of their words are matching up.
9. [+25, -0] Oh, is his mother going to serve too? Why did she resign?
10. [+21, -0] Why did his mother resign with him then? Is she enlisting too?

Article: Yang Hyun Suk speaks up about Seungri's Burning Sun controversy, "Seungri went home before the assault happened, and rumors about drug use are unfounded"
Source: Sports Korea via Nate
1. [+3,127, -53] The point of the issue isn't whether he went home or used drugs at the club or not... it's what connections the club has with the police...
2. [+2,958, -57] Does it matter whether he was there or not at the time of the assault?
3. [+2,779, -57] Just because he wasn't there doesn't absolve him of his responsibility. It's his own club.
4. [+168, -2] He's really calling this a clarification ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
5. [+162, -1] Meanwhile, he actually used this opportunity to promote Black Pink too...
6. [+136, -1] Yang Hyun Suk, let's explain it in a way you might understand. Let's say your daughter goes to a school with suspected drug use and assault. All of the incidents happened outside of class hours like when the kids were going home. Do you think the school has no responsibility for any of that?
7. [+127, -0] Can he please think for himself... and wonder why all of the drug scandals in the country are all involved with YG? GD, Park Bom, famous stylists, composers... and now Seungri's club? Do you really think this is all coincidence? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
8. [+88, -1] The trashiest agency in Korea that needs to be taken down
9. [+83, -0] So his statement is basically saying that Seungri's going to enlist
10. [+69, -0] Well technically Chun Doo Hwan wasn't there when he ordered the president to be assassinated either

Article: Yang Hyun Suk directly confesses thoughts on Seungri's club assault scandal + drug investigation... "We feel sorry"
Source: OSEN via Naver
1. [+2,970, -154] The struggle for him to get all their stories matching up
2. [+2,301, -30] What I don't get is why the blackbox footage in police cars can't be released for privacy reasons while any normal citizen's blackbox can be released. Isn't that invasion of our privacy too? I think the main priority here is to protect the identity of the female victim!
3. [+1,651, -14] Look at the journalist's concluding words in the article ㅋㅋㅋ "Since Yang Hyun Suk clarified the scandal, it seems like he will be able to put the scandal to rest" ㅋㅋㅋ Journalist, is this your private diary entry?
4. [+1,369, -47] Wondering if YG is a drug cartel now...
5. [+1,083, -20] It is so like Yang Hyun Suk to put out a clarification that completely misses the point ㅋㅋ We never cared whether Seungri used drugs in the club or not. What we want to know is how the club got involved with the police enough to turn a victim into a criminal and where all the insider reports on the club distributing drugs and sexually assaulting women are coming from. Seungri was basically running a club full of criminals. We know that Seungri has to enlist but why did he resign with his mother just four days before the scandal broke in the media? Is his mother resigning too?? There are so many fishy things about this scandal and I'm actually disgusted at how they're handling it.
6. [+271, -3] No one's accusing Seungri of doing drugs. We're asking whether the club has anything to do with distributing drugs and how he didn't know that his club was being run in violence. And yet none of that was clarified... Why is YG even the one putting out a public statement? Seungri should be the one talking.
7. [+133, -3] The pig police should be investigating the drug usage in VIP rooms right now
8. [+126, -2] I thought Yang Hyun Suk said he wasn't going to involve himself with personal businesses??? Then stay out...
9. [+126, -3] Ugh so tired of OSEN's shield articles, here's another one
10. [+105, -3] It sounds like Yang Hyun Suk is beating around the bush because he's afraid of Seungri speaking up and making a mistake. Too bad no one believes him anyway.

Article: "Seungri does not do drugs" YG's official statement is only a distraction from the main point
Source: Newsen via Nate
1. [+1,294, -20] Who cares whether Seungri did drugs or not? Stop distracting from the issue ㅡㅡ
1. YG + police connections
2. Burning Sun + police connections
Only clarify on those two issues. Leave yourself out of the rest of it ㅡㅡ
2. [+1,166, -11] The main points of this scandal are drugs, date rape drugs, sexual assault, and connections to the police. That's it.
3. [+1,014, -15] After watching how Yang Hyun Suk and Seungri have been handling this, I can now see why YG and their artists are such a mess... I really wonder what the police were bribed with this time... it makes me question whether I'm living in Korea or Mexico...
4. [+72, -0] We don't care whether Seungri did drugs or not. We want to know what's going on with the claims that Seungri's club has been using date rape drugs for sexual assault and whether they have connections to the police or not. We don't want more victims to come out of this.
5. [+49, -0] Whether Seungri himself did drugs or not doesn't matter because there was drug usage in his club. How could Seungri not know? Especially when his VIP clients were the ones doing it? Just because he didn't use it himself, he's free of responsibility? He's guilty based off the fact that he provided the location and turned a blind eye towards the drug usage of his clients.
6. [+47, -0] I think that it's a lie that Seungri doesn't do drugs ㅋㅋㅋ all of the people he is close with and his club staff are known for doing drugs. Even the kids caught on 'Gangnam Patch' for drug usage are close with Seungri too ㅋㅋ you really think birds of a feather don't flock together?
7. [+41, -2] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ He basically answered all the questions we never asked ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
It's like asking "why'd you fart????" and him answering, "I didn't eat that."
8. [+36, -0] So what relations do you have with the police!!!!!!!!
9. [+35, -0] Did anyone ever ask whether Seungri did drugs? YG is trying to change the subject
10. [+28, -1] This is not about whether Seungri did drugs or not. We're asking Seungri as the owner of the club to clarify what's happening inside his club.

Article: Seungri's Burning Sun scandal, YG Yang Hyun Suk's weird clarification
Source: TV Daily via Nate
1. [+439, -3] I truly question how Yang Hyun Suk has been able to run a business with his brain
2. [+387, -2] It's not important whether Seungri was at the club~ it's obvious he knew what was going on... The entire nation knows that he bragged about setting up his own club on TV, how could we not know...
3. [+359, -4] The only thing Seungri is thinking right now is how he's going to run away to the army ㅋㅋ
4. [+29, -0] ㅋㅋㅋ Even in the midst of all this, Yang Hyun Suk is promoting another group's comeback news? He really thinks of us as fools
5. [+21, -0] It's so funny how obvious it is that Yang Hyun Suk is trying to beat around the bush as much as possible to just get this buried and over with

Article: Four days into Burning Sun scandal -> Yang Hyun Suk clarification -> Seungri's silence
Source: TV Report via Naver
1. [+5,182, -43] So weird how this isn't on the search rankings~~
2. [+3,760, -80] YG is Naver's second-biggest stockholder.. this has been completely erased from the search rankings ㅋㅋㅋ
3. [+3,230, -30] Stop distracting from the issue and answer what's going on with your police bribery and the date rape drugs being used in the club.
4. [+1,867, -40] Amazing of Naver! Nothing on the search rankings! YG = Naver ㅎㅎㅎ
5. [+1,289, -38] There's nothing about this on the search rankings and any article that gets put up gets taken back down, they're so trash
6. [+736, -3] The point of the issue isn't whether Seungri did drugs or not but what's going on with the drug deals in the VIP rooms and the date rape drugs inside the club that he owns. We want to know whether he knew all of this and what his involvement is in bribing the police. Instead, Yang Hyun Suk starts his letter with a random new Year greeting and ends it by promoting Black Pink's comeback ㅋㅋㅋㅋ is this really an official statement??? Or just a statement bragging about how this isn't affecting you guys at all?? ㅋㅋ
7. [+460, -2] We don't care whether he used drugs or not. We want to know whether he was aware that he was providing a location for rich clients to use drugs and drug women to rape them. We all know that you bribed the police too.
8. [+309, -4] Honestly, the focus here shouldn't be on Seungri but on the assault, rape, and drug usage within the club. Seungri, well... we can leave him as he is now because it's not like he can run away from anything. The police need to focus their efforts on finding all the men who committed assault, rape, and drug distribution and making sure they're in jail before they get to run away. No time in focusing on Seungri right now when there are so many more who need to be put away.
