Amid renewed attention on Seungri and the Burning Scandal from 2018, a video of iKON supposedly exposing the former BIGBANG member's real personality has resurfaced.
The clip comes from Seungri and iKON's appearance on "Knowing Bros" in 2018. In the first part of the show, the guest must ask the cast members questions, and whoever gets the question right, earns the opportunity to have the guest as their partner or seatmate for the rest of the show.
During former iKON member B.I's part, he revealed that when iKON were trainees, they moved into the dormitory BIGBANG used to reside in. He then revealed that Seungri "left a trace" of himself there. The idol then added that the dormitory was not empty, but the BIGBANG members had left some furniture and miscellaneous items behind.
Seo Jang Hoon guessed that it was a computer. While B.I stated he was wrong, he confirmed that the item left behind was a device. As the cast tried to come up with an answer, Seungri appeared nervous and asked if they were certain it was found in his old room.
Seo Jang Hoon then guessed he left a set-top box. He then painted a scenario where he opened the set-top box and discovered several pornographic films. While B.I stated that it was not the answer, he revealed that when they opened the TV that was left behind, it was full of 18+ films someone had bought.
Seo Jang Hoon then guessed that he left a DVD player, and theorized that when he opened it, he was surprised with an NSFW film. B.I then revealed that he was getting warmer. Seo Jang Hoon then guessed adult movies from Japan.
Seungri tried to change the topic from sexual matters, stating that the item he left behind was not erotic, but that it moves. B.I shut this down quickly, stating the item he had in mind didn't move. This left Seungri flabbergasted.
Lee Soo Geun then guessed that Seungri left a memory stick, and hypothesized that they placed the stick into a computer and saw NSFW imagery. This was close, but not it. Lee Sang Min guessed it was a hard drive, to which B.I stated it was but wanted a more specific answer. Seo Jang Hoon then proclaimed it was a hard drive full of adult videos, to which B.I stated that he was right.
Seungri tried to debunk that it was his, but the members of iKON revealed that Seungri had a post-it with his name on it. It is likely the former BIGBANG member labeled it as such with the plan of moving with it, but accidentally left it behind. B.I revealed that they found the hard drive in their closet.
The other members went into more detail, revealing that Seungri had hundreds of folders, labeled by the name of the actress. Seungri feebly tried to claim it wasn't him, saying another member labels his adult videos by name. However, no one was buying it.
At the time, people thought it was just a funny anecdote. However, learning of the sex crimes he committed during the Burning Sun scandal has caused this outlook to sour. Many slammed Seungri for being a porn addict, and that watching the video with the knowledge people have now is sickening.
