On March 6, YTN�news reported that the woman in her 20s 'B', who sued ZEST�member 'A' for rape, is also an idol herself.

'B' told YTN, "Even though there's a risk in hurting my image, I've decided to reveal this information to reveal the truth about the rape incident."

The female idol also went on to say that she had not written anything false on SNS nor made any threats, but was being cornered as a liar by ZEST and their agency.
