What Were the Claims of the Alleged Victims of EVERGLOW Aisha's Bullying?
In February this year, an online user (hereinafter "A") made a post on the online community Nate Pann where she claimed that she is a former middle school classmate of EVERGLOW Aisha. Along with her story, A shared a picture of her graduation album from 2016 as proof of her accusation.
A stated, "Aisha was a kid at my school was a bully but put on a mask to become a celebrity. She started tormenting me when I began dating a guy that she was close with. She told me that she was the guy's ex-girlfriend and made sexual comments to me like, 'I've done XX with him but you still haven't?' and 'How far have you gone with him?'"
The accuser continued that EVERGLOW Aisha and her friends began to physically assault her during the time she was dating the guy. She claimed that the K-pop star would hit her and strike the back of her neck.
