BIGBANG member Seungri, whose real name is Lee Seung-Hyun, is back in the headlines again. The 26-year-old idol reportedly went into a hotel with an unnamed Japanese model after a recent gig in Japan.
On Dec. 15, Thursday, Seungri hit the front page of a Japanese newspaper Real Life, as cited by All Kpop. After wrapping up a special concert tour in Nagoya, Japan, the idol reportedly went into a hotel with a Japanese woman who looks like a model in her 20s.
The newsoutlet also reported that the BIGBANG member is well known among expensive bars and nightclubs in Japan. He reportedly brings several women to the bar and then takes the one he likes to a nearby hotel, it added.
This comes after another Japanese woman claimed she has dated Seungri for more than a year in the past, according to a local newsoutlet Shukan Bunshun, as cited by Korea Boo. The two began seeing each other in 2013 after they met at a membership-only karaoke bar.
The woman claimed Seungri would take her to expensive hotels when he is in the country. The singer would then ask her to take a bath together, as he sings several Justin Timberlake songs to her, it revealed.
However, their relationship took a turn for the worse when the woman found out that the BIGBANG member was still talking to other girls during the duration of their relationship. The former reportedly caught the latter messaging other girls on LINE, which later caused their breakup.
"Seungri is really bad when he drinks," the local newsoutlet quoted the woman as saying. "He doesn't make friends with girls. There have been times where I went to his room and passed another girl that was leaving. Naturally, I hated this so I cut off the relationship."
As of press time, Seungri has not yet issued any official comment on the matter. While waiting, watch the official music video for Seungri's "Gotta Talk To U" here:
