Jisoo's Brother Kim Jung Hoon Linked to Sexual Harassment Allegations

A shadow has been cast over the family of K-pop star Jisoo of Blackpink, as her brother, Kim Jung Hoon, has become embroiled in a controversy surrounding allegations of sexual harassment. Reports have surfaced linking him to the arrest of a man suspected of harassing a female streamer.

The incident, as reported by Channel A, involves a man in his 30s, referred to as Mr. A, who allegedly subjected the streamer to unwanted physical contact after inviting her to his home. The two reportedly met at a restaurant, and Mr. A had allegedly purchased a dating package from the streamer. The victim claims Mr. A attempted sexual harassment upon arrival at his residence, prompting her to flee and seek help.

While Mr. A has admitted to physical contact, he denies any coercion, asserting that the encounter was consensual. However, the situation has ignited a firestorm online, with netizens speculating about the identity of Mr. A. The use of Kim Jung Hoon's image alongside his sister Jisoo in media reports, despite facial blurring, has fueled these discussions, leading many to believe he is the individual in question.

It is crucial to note that these allegations remain unconfirmed. Neither Jisoo nor Kim Jung Hoon have issued official statements regarding the matter. This is not the first time Kim Jung Hoon has faced such accusations; in mid-2025, a woman accused him of secretly recording sexual activities, claims he denied as slander. The current situation highlights the intense scrutiny faced by individuals connected to popular celebrities and the rapid spread of information, and speculation, in the digital age.

It is true that I touched her, but it should not be considered sexual harassment.
