[ASKKPOP] ZEST's agency clarifies that the female idol who sued for rape is a not a currently promoting idol

Just earlier,YTNhad reported the woman 'B' who sued Zest member 'A' for rape was a female idol, leaving the public to throw in their own guesses about who 'B' could be. In response,ZEST's companyZenith Star Entertainmentspoke up to reveal that 'B' is not a currently promoting idol, but a former one.


On March 6, the company said, "We heard 'B' is from an idol background. However, the group she was in disbanded without having promoted properly. She has stopped all activities as a celebrity."


It has also been revealed that ZEST member 'A' was born in 1996 while the female idol 'B' was born in 1991. When the two met back in November, 'A' was still underage.


Zenith Star Entertainment continued to firmly deny any allegations, commenting, "It's true that the two met last year. However, 'B' suddenly sued for rape after they stopped seeing each other. She is saying that she is the victim. It is an absurd situation for us.



On their potential comeback, the agency shared with Sport's Today, "ZEST's next album was originally planned to be released in early April. But we will only be able to release new material after this matter is resolved."
