"Only Help with Reservations at Hard-to-Book Restaurants"
"Not Really a Relationship Worth Dining Together"
Streamer Gwajeupseyeon (Inseyeon) once again addressed being spotted with HYBE Chairman Bang Si-hyuk in Los Angeles, USA. This was through the video titled “Gwajeupseyeon, who only crosses overpasses due to crosswalk trauma,” released on August 18 on the YouTube channel ‘Noppakku Takjaehun’.

Earlier, Gwajeupseyeon attracted attention after being seen walking on a street in Beverly Hills, LA, with Chairman Bang in August. At that time, Chairman Bang carefully took photos of Gwajeupseyeon posing by kneeling down.
When asked, “Why did you go to the US?” Gwajeupseyeon replied, “I went on a trip. I had a nose surgery again, and after removing the stitches, I thought it was a waste of time to just stay at home, so I went out.”
Takjaehun subtly asked about the photos taken with Chairman Bang, “Why did you cross the crosswalk several times?” She explained the situation, saying, “That’s Beverly Hills, LA. I crossed once,” and “When I went there the day before with my older sister, the paparazzi had already taken pictures at the crosswalk we crossed. It seems like they stay around and keep filming content.”
When asked, “Can you meet Chairman Bang by chance?” Gwajeupseyeon said, “How could I meet him by chance at a crosswalk? We met by appointment.” However, she said they did not have a meal together. “There is a restaurant that is very difficult to get a reservation at. They said you have to be accompanied by this person to make a reservation, so I went with him. We didn’t eat together. We weren’t close enough to eat together, so I just made the reservation and introduced the food and left,” she answered.
Comedian Lee Su-ji, who parodied the crosswalk photo as ‘Yukjeupsuji,’ said, “I saw it and was amazed. The fact that she would imitate it is an honor I may never experience in my life.”
HYBE explained during the controversy, “At a gathering of acquaintances, we happened to meet one of the two women by chance and gave advice on how to respond regarding an impersonator of the entertainment company,” adding, “Later, when the two came to LA together, they asked about tourist spots and restaurants, so we made reservations and guided them.”
