GFRIEND Official Website Used To Advertise To Prostitution Service
Netizens are furious after GFRIEND‘s website has been taken over by an “adult website” advertising prostitution services.
The last tweet on the group’s Japan site showcases the Japanese website with the URL https://gfriendofficial.jp/.

When netizens recently clicked on the link, they realized that it no longer belonged to GFRIEND and was now under the ownership of a Japanese “adult website” that speaks about “sugar daddies” and how to earn money in the prostitution industry.
When netizens realized what happened and the fact that the URL is still very much linked to GFRIEND as a group, they shared their anger. Not only did it stem from GFRIEND’s “mistreatment” since their contracts ended, but also how it created a bad reputation for the group as it is still linked to the website with the exact URL and name.
So first they end their contracts and kick them out, then they release shady articles with fake informations, then they bring Gfriend's name into their entire mess, then they delete their music from yt music and now they sold the gfriend japan website to a prostitution thing??!?!

Buddies we need to have an emergency meeting, what can we do on our scale to piss Source music off I can't just watch this all happen like that. This has gone way too far and we've been way waaaay too nice.

GFRIEND’s websites and social media are still linked to the group, and while it isn’t used actively, it holds memories, and netizens are furious that it is now linked to a service that provides adult services.
