Which K-pop star was caught shoplifting?
It was revealed that Sihyun, a member of female vocal trio Gavy NJ, has been detained for shoplifting.
According to reports, Sihyun was caught leaving a store without paying for about 300,000 KRW (approximately $266 USD) worth of clothing on June 10. The police investigated the matter and Sihyun admitted to being guilty of the crime.
The singer has come to an amicable agreement with the store, which will not pursue legal charges. Her agency explained that it was an act of impulse due to suffering from stress and premenstrual syndrome.
Sihyun posted an apology for the incident on Facebook and Twitter saying, “I’m deeply sorry for having let down fans and others who know me. I’m not trying to make excuses. I just wanted to apologize.”
