Hearts2Hearts Ian Faces School Bullying Allegations Following Debut
SM Entertainment’s newest girl group, Hearts2Hearts, made their highly anticipated debut on February 24, 2025, with their single “The Chase.” However, shortly after their debut, member Ian has become embroiled in controversy as allegations of her past as a school bully surfaced online.
Allegations Against Ian
A comment on Hearts2Hearts’ debut music video has accused Ian of engaging in violent and disruptive behavior during her school years. The YouTube comment detailed incidents such as Ian allegedly throwing a rock at a boy, which reportedly caused significant damage to school property, and her parents’ alleged confrontational involvement in the aftermath. The comment also mentioned claims of Ian’s uncooperative behavior during classes and accusations of inappropriate actions involving teachers during middle school.
The allegations gained further traction when another user claiming to be a former classmate supported the claims and shared pre-debut photos of Ian as evidence. The situation has since gone viral on social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter), sparking heated debates among netizens.
SM Entertainment’s Response
As of now, SM Entertainment has not released an official statement addressing the allegations against Ian. Fans and critics alike are awaiting the agency’s response to clarify the situation and protect both the artist and the group’s reputation amidst the controversy.
Original Post (Translated) about Hearts2Hearts Ian:
Ian, you’ve finally debuted. I was so shocked when I heard you were debuting. How can someone who’s lived such a trashy life have the audacity to debut? I already feel bad for your fans.
I still vividly remember how you threw a rock at a boy just because you didn’t like him in elementary school, breaking the school water pipe and flooding the first floor. Then your mom came to the school pretending you were the victim, flipped out in the teacher’s office, and even went to the boy’s mother demanding she kneel in apology. Your family became infamous for that incident.
You probably don’t know this, but everyone from our grade remembers it even now, and rumors spread to high schools our seniors attended. While one incident might be brushed off as a mistake, people around you know how awful you really are.
Your friend once filmed you hitting someone and uploaded it to the classroom homepage before it was quickly deleted, but everyone who needed to know already knew about it. And during class, your uncooperative behavior made many classmates avoid you.
In middle school, you and some friends even caused trouble with teachers by playing inappropriate games and making sexual comments. You might not remember because you’ve done so many bad things, but those who respected those teachers were furious at you back then. Watching someone like you act that way made me realize that some people are just born mean rather than being influenced by others over time.
I used to attend your mom’s academy but felt so embarrassed about what I learned there that I couldn’t even talk about it. If you see this post, pass it along: after you dropped out of school to become a trainee, your friends got caught smoking at school—one was even heavily scolded for bullying younger students. It made me think birds of a feather flock together. If you hadn’t dropped out for training, that could’ve been you too.
I’ve written this while trying to stay calm, but if I said this post wasn’t written with ill intent, that would be a lie. Still, both you and those who know you will admit there’s no exaggeration or lies here. I’m now in my first year of high school and unlike you, I have studying to do—so writing this is kind of ridiculous—but I wanted people who like you to at least know what kind of person they’re supporting.
If this post spreads widely and puts you at a disadvantage, don’t blame me—it’s your life that led to this point. Out of all the people I’ve met in my life, you’re the worst person I’ve ever known. Congrats on your debut though, Jung Ian.
