Influencer Nirmolcash (29, Cha Chung-il), who faced accusations of dating violence from his ex-girlfriend—including verbal abuse, physical assault, gaslighting, and property damage—has suspended his activities, admitting that the allegations are "mostly true."
On September 29, a representative from Nirmolcash's agency, NOB Entertainment, told Sports Seoul, "He admitted that it is him," adding, "After verifying the facts, we found that most of the other party's claims are true." The agency explained that it is currently preparing an official statement regarding the matter.
Previously, a netizen identified as A, who stated that she broke up with Nirmolcash, took to social media around 11 p.m. on September 28 to disclose what she claims happened while they were dating.
A wrote, "I felt that his actual personality was so different from the image known to the public," and published an audio recording that she claimed captured the situation at the time. She added, "I intend to disclose what I personally experienced and the supporting materials based on facts," noting, "There is no exaggeration or falsehood in what I am revealing."
The released recording contains the voice of a man hurling curses and verbal abuse at A. Sounds that appeared to be objects being slammed heavily nearby were also included. A claimed that this recording captured a situation that occurred on May 29.
In her expository post, A claimed, "After a drinking gathering, he subjected me to verbal and physical violence for nearly three hours, throwing objects and pushing my shoulders and forehead." She continued, "While drunk, he hurled severe curses at a taxi driver old enough to be his father, and unable to control his anger, he threw his own phone on the street to break it and punched home appliances and walls."
Claims were also raised that he made derogatory remarks about fellow creators and ordinary office workers. A wrote that he had frequently made "derogatory remarks about office workers and people making an honest living." She also claimed that he routinely used regional derogatory terms and online community slurs, and that he spoke of his fans in a way that suggested he found them "annoying."
Explaining the reason for speaking out belatedly, A stated, "We ended the relationship on bad terms," and added, "I wanted a sincere apology, but I didn't get one." She wrote, "I wanted to hear a sincere apology from him until the end, and if I just got that, I would have forgotten everything and moved on," adding, "I think I gave him many opportunities, but I don't think I ever received a genuine apology." A added, "There is much more content left. I will return with an additional post."
Following the expository post, Nirmolcash's Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok accounts were deleted, and all videos on Chijizik were set to private.
Nirmolcash is an influencer who has been active on YouTube and Instagram, and gained recognition for the song "Good Night, My Princess" (tentative translation/literal: "Sleep Well, Young Lady"), which he sang alongside Tanaka (Kim Kyung-wook).
