According to a report from Maeil Kyungjae, Seungri was spotted at a club in Bali on August 10th. The outlet obtained a video clip which allegedly shows Seungri conversing with one or two women, believed to be Korean.
According to reports, during the clip, a woman can be heard asking Seungri (whose real name is Seunghyeon), “Will you buy it for me?”Allegedly, Seungri responded, “I’ll buy it for you, I’ll buy it.”Additionally, a member of the group is said to have invited the tourists to join them for fun at their dorm, which was a mere 5-minute distance.
The coverage has sparked intense reactions from Korean netizens, with many expressing their disdain for the former idol’s reported behavior at the club. Here are a few of their comments:
- “He’s still not dead?”
- “At this point, this has to be a disease.”
- “People never change, he’s the perfect example of that saying.”
- “He really needs to get banned from entering South Korea again.”
- “Can we just give him the death sentence if Burning Sun happens again?”
- “Why is he like that?”
- “Ew. Please send him back to the military.”
In a different post, fans from around the world also had strong reactions to the news. Some proposed a travel ban for Seungri and others raised concerns for the affected women. Here are a few examples of their responses:
- “Can someone make a FundMe for his head? I will gladly donate. Also, Korea, you love pride, reputation, or whatever, so ban him from traveling.”
- “They just never learn.”
- “This id**t is going to end up in prison once more in the next five years, mark my words.”
- “Everyone knew that neither he, nor any of his friends, would change and that’s why their short sentences were ridiculous.”
- “I just hope the women are aware of who they’re meeting and that they stay safe.”
- “Disgusting. He needs to be castrated.”
- “I hate this guy with all my being.”
On X (previously known as Twitter), the news quickly gained popularity among the K-pop community as numerous users shared their opinions.

Indonesia, how are you just letting criminals come to your country like what the fuck. Any girl in this asshole’s vicinity is in mortal danger. They’ll either be fed GHB and be trafficked or be trafficked and fed GHB. That’s it. https://t.co/lsMIEZGigX
