On March 19, Chinese media, including Sohu Entertainment, reported that Seungri was spotted in a disco in Hangzhou. The relationship described, “Seungri entered the place of the event escorted by the bodyguards. He kept his head down and remained silent for everything, but a large crowd of fans has gathered, screaming and looking at him.”
However, Seungri’s return to the activities may not be regular.
According to Chinese media, “To engage in legally cultural and artistic activities, registration with the Ministry of Culture is required. It is not clear whether Seungri’s event has been officially registered and this will be determined only after the Ministry of Culture has completed its investigations.” The media have further criticized, “His appearance in a Hangzhou night club despite his judicial box and his attempts to return to the Chinese market for financial earnings are evident provocations against the legal and moral standards of China. “
Seungri was once a successful member of Bigbang’s success, but in 2019 he was accused of being the key figure in the “Burning Sun” scandal, leading to his departure from the group and retirement from the entertainment sector.
He was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison for nine accusations, including prostitution, the mediation of prostitution, the violation of the law on the punishment of sexual crimes, the usual gambling, the violation of the law on foreign currency transactions, the violation of the law on food renovation, the appropriation of business, the violation of the act on the act on the aggravated punishment on the aggravated punishment and on the special assault. Seungri took the penalty in Yeoju prison and was released in February 2023.
However, after his release, he was seen frequent clubs, enjoying parties and holding meetings with foreign investors. More recently, relationships have emerged by claiming to have been seen dinner with women in a Soul restaurant specializing in the posthumous soup of a bone hangover, triggering further public repercussions.
