Female Idol Exposes Herself As Affair Partner And Suspends Activities, Angering Netizens
Earlier today, it was reported that ME:I’s Shizuku Iida would go on hiatus.

In a statement issued by her company, it was announced that Shizuku would halt all her current activities due to a violation of “company regulations.” It offered an apology for the “serious act that went against the expectations of our fans” and stated that she was reflecting on her actions.

Shizuku’s announcement has been linked to a scandal involving JO1’s Shosei cheating scandal, with it being assumed that Shizuku is the female idol mentioned due to the announcement of her hiatus. A similar announcement was made regarding Shosei, nearly word for word the same message as they are under the same agency.
Exposed: Popular Male Idol Cheats On Girlfriend With Younger Girl Group Member
Details of the exposé claimed that the girl group member did not have a clue that Shosei already had a girlfriend, making her innocent in the matter. However, the announcement of her scandal in the same way as the allegedly cheating male idol has angered netizens.
Many feel that she should not be punished for dating, calling out the company.
Why does she need to reflect on her actions?? shizuku did nothing wrong, she’s actually a victim too so why you make it sound as if she’s also the one at fault? WHY?? https://t.co/lWL89z9MLm
