K-Pop fans worldwide were left stunned yesterday when Ravi, the rapper from the popular boy band VIXX, announced his departure from the group. This came after a series of allegations that Ravi had attempted to evade his mandatory military service by providing false medical documents suggesting that he suffered from epilepsy.
The allegations resulted in Ravi being booked for evading military service, with prosecutors seeking a two-year prison sentence. Ravi issued an apology statement, admitting that he had been "desperate to push back my military service" and had made a "foolish decision" to do so.
He went on to apologize to epilepsy patients and their families, all those who had been hurt by his actions, and his fans.
