The controversy erupted on the 28th, when a woman identified as A, who said she was Nimolcash’s former girlfriend, posted allegations and recording videos on social media. “Seeing him build a positive image with so many people, I felt that it was completely different from who he really was,” A wrote, releasing evidence of incidents she said she personally experienced and the circumstances surrounding them.

According to A’s allegations, after a drinking session in May, Nimolcash subjected her to severe verbal abuse for about three hours and committed dating violence by throwing objects and pushing her shoulder, among other acts.

The recordings released by A include the voice of a man believed to be Nimolcash hurling abuse at her, saying, “What did I ever do to you?” and “Why should I beg in front of people who spent 400,000 won?” The man also disparaged A’s acquaintances, saying, “Why should I care whether I brag about myself in front of those f***ing office workers who are no help at all?” He then directed a barrage of profanity at A, calling her a “low-class human being,” further shocking the public.

A also released a call recording that appeared to show Nimolcash, while drunk and trying to recover glasses he had left in a taxi, abruptly hurling abuse at the driver and causing a disturbance. The disclosure sparked public outrage.
