Netizens are reportedly alleging that former T-ARA member Areum is marrying a sex offender.
Recently, an online post titled “A Girl Group Member Is About To Marry The 2nd Jeon Chung Jo.” Many will remember Jeon Chung Jo as the fraudster who married an Olympian athlete, only to be exposed for their many past crimes.

The post’s author claimed that they feared an incident similar to the Jeon Chung Jo scandal would occur after reading about a girl group member who announced her new marriage while still divorcing her ex-husband.
Seriously, I am writing this because I am afraid a scandal similar to the Jeon Chung Jo incident will occur. I was shocked after reading that a former girl group member announced she was getting married to her boyfriend while still in the divorce process with her ex-husband.

The author of the post then claimed that the idol’s new husband was not a screenwriter as reported but had recently served time in prison.
The idol’s boyfriend is claiming that he is a writer, but he is an acquaintance of mine who recently was released from prison. He was in prison for fraud and sexual assault. He was also charged with assault, defamation, and several other crimes.

The author of the post continued writing that there were many victims before revealing that she was one of them.
There are many women who were victims, and I am one of them. First of all, that man has been divorced before, and it is my knowledge that he assaulted his former wife.
After his divorce, he would lie to women about his identity (he is unemployed) and would defraud them out of money. He would also take pictures of women’s intimate areas while they were sleeping and would record women while having sex with them (these were used to threaten the women). When he couldn’t keep up with his lies, he would physically assault them and then tell the police that he was the victim. His victims have since come together, and we discovered that his patterns were always the same.
