[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Seul-gi] It has been reported that Resident A, who subjected a security guard at an apartment in Ui-dong, Gangbuk-gu, Seoul, to power harassment and assault, leading to the guard's extreme choice, was the former manager of singer DAVIN. Meanwhile, Dayul (real name Kang Da-bin), formerly of the group Baby Boo, stated, "The DAVIN mentioned in the current news articles is not me."

On the 13th, Dayul wrote on her Instagram, "I was suddenly shocked to hear about the news and the trending search terms, so I calmed my mind and decided to write this. I sincerely pray that the injustice will be resolved."

Earlier, a media outlet revealed an additional victim who suffered verbal abuse and power harassment from Resident A, who had also harassed the deceased apartment security guard, and published an interview with DAVIN. According to the report, DAVIN was affiliated with the entertainment agency led by Resident A from 2017 to 2019.

In the interview, DAVIN stated, "Resident A said, 'I am a member of an organization, and burying someone like you is nothing.' He told the security guard, 'I will hit you without leaving scars,' but to me, he said, 'I will hit you gently, so come out.'"

Meanwhile, it has been confirmed that security guard Choi, who worked at the apartment, was continuously subjected to verbal abuse and assault by Resident A before making an extreme choice. The incident came to light after a resident of the same apartment posted a message titled "Please clear the injustice of our apartment security uncle" on the Blue House National Petition Board.

The police investigating the case imposed a travel ban on Resident A on the 11th and plan to summon him for questioning this week.
