The post says, "So the Kim Garam that will be revealed at 12 later, her past is not clean. She transferred from Gwangju to Seoul for some reason. Since she was about to debut, she went around to apologize and stuff. So, it's 100% that her past will be revealed."
Like what the netizen said, Kim Garam was introduced as LE SSERAFIM's second member on April 5 at midnight KST through a new teaser video and new photos.
Then, in the morning of April 5, a netizen claiming to be Garam's middle school classmate alleged that the female idol was a school bully. She said that Kim would bully her friend and her juniors if they would not greet her well whenever they encountered her. The classmate added that she would smoke and drink as well.
Netizens who came across the post made on April 4 showed late reactions such as, "I think he was also a classmate of Garam."
"What he said came true."
"The accusations might be really true," and more.
