Bang Si Hyuk has been spotted in Beverly Hills with AfreecaTV influencers.
On August 8, photos of the HYBE founder in Los Angeles with two AfreecaTV streamers known for their risque content became a hot topic of conversation among netizens. One of the women is alleged to be influencer and live streamer Juice Seyeon, who's also known for appearing on the Netflix show 'The Influencer'.
The photos were taken from a video posted by the YouTube channel 'I am WalKing' that featured a highlight of videos taken this past July in Beverly Hills, California.
The posts made to Korean online communities were quickly taken down, and the following message was posted instead:
"We inform you the publication has been taken down to comply with Article 44-2 of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection.

BIGHIT MUSIC also made a statement on the matter.

Later, when both of them came to LA, they asked for recommendations on tourist spots and restaurants, so he made reservations and guided them."
