Youre telling me this is why Jessi lost her career, was interrogated for hours, sent endless hate, and was sued? Because other men were fighting? A fight you can see she tried to prevent? https://t.co/L234Q0gFWK

A female celebrity was blamed, interrogated by police for hours, demonized in Korea, dropped by her sponsors, all because two men got into a fight and she tried to stop it.

Jessi lost her whole career, was interrogated for hours and is enduring the brutality of korean press because two random men decided to fight and she happened to be there?
This is the clear example of what’s wrong in korean society. Why is this HER fault and not those two bums? https://t.co/26Qa0ddPzN
