Influencer Kim Seri Accused Of Neglecting Her 3 Kids In Malaysia While Living In Korea
Malaysian influencer Kim Seri has been receiving negative press lately. Previously, the content creator was accused of travel package fraud after a woman and several colleagues were allegedly left stranded in South Korea due to Kim Seri's travel agency failing to provide return tickets. The case appears to still be ongoing, with little to no updates following the arrest of her former husband. While all of this was happening, the public figure has since remarried, this time to a Korean-Muslim man named Choi Amin. However, Kim Seri is now facing renewed backlash, this time over allegations of being a neglectful mother to her two children. The latest criticism stems from a post on Threads by an anonymous user who goes by @/user768592844621919, who questioned Kim Seri's parenting. The post insinuated that she had abandoned her children while enjoying a comfortable life in Korea. 'Doesn't she miss her kids? I mean, she's living comfortably in Korea, even got married to someone there, but it's a pity that she hasn't been a present parent. It's a shame that they have a mother who is a scammer,' the post read. The post quickly went viral, with many netizens agreeing with the user's sentiments. Numerous commenters criticised the influencer for allegedly failing to prioritise her children, accusing her of being an irresponsible parent. Others continued to brand her a scammer and claimed that she had brought shame to her family. At the time of writing, Kim Seri has yet to respond to the latest backlash. However, she has previously denied similar accusations, stating that it was her ex-sister-in-law who had restricted her access to her children. In other news, the Malaysian influencer is taking legal action against an individual who questioned the legitimacy of her marriage to her new husband. At this point, let's just hope there's an end to this whole fiasco surrounding Kim Seri. Sources: Threads, Instagram

As One Member Lee Min Found Dead At Her Home At Age 46
It was only days ago when actor Song Young Kyu (송영규) was reported to have been found dead inside a car at a residential complex in Yongin. He was laid to rest yesterday (Wednesday, 6th August), but, the cause of his death has yet to be disclosed. Tragically, news of another Korean celebrity's death has since emerged. On Tuesday (5th August), it was reported that singer Lee Min, a member of the female duo As One (애즈원), had passed away. She was 46 years old. According to Korean media, the artist was found deceased at her home. While details surrounding her death remain undisclosed, a statement from her agency, BRANDNEW MUSIC, revealed that it was Lee Min's husband who discovered her body upon returning home. 'The police are conducting an investigation. We ask that people refrain from excessive speculation until the results are released,' the statement read. According to reports, the K-pop star was still active in the industry right until her death. As One released a new single, 'Happy Birthday To You', in June, and Lee Min recently appeared on 'The Seasons: Park Bo-gum's Cantabile'. Friends and acquaintances told reporters that she had seemed to be enjoying her comeback activities when they met her recently. The vocalist's bandmate, Crystal, has yet to issue a statement. However, fans have been flooding her Instagram comments section with messages of condolence following the heartbreaking news. As One debuted back in 1999 with their single 'For You Not to Know'. The duo's last full-length album was 'Outlast' in 2016, but they still remained active with standalone singles. Lee Min and Crystal's last live performance together was in September 2024 at the Los Angeles Korean Festival. We'd like to offer our deepest condolences to Lee Min's loved ones. May they have the strength to get through this difficult time. Sources: Soompi, Allkpop, Forbes

Singer Dayang Nurfaizah tight-lipped on engagement rumours
Dayang Nurfaizah will be staging two concerts soon: one in Penang on Aug 23 and another at Menara Kuala Lumpur on Sept 27. Photo: Dayang Nurfaizah/Instagram Malaysian singer Dayang Nurfaizah is choosing to keep her personal life private amid growing rumours that she is engaged and preparing to walk down the aisle soon. The 44-year-old singer, whose full name is Dayang Nurfaizah Awang Dowty, denied that any date has been set for a wedding ceremony despite the ongoing speculation. For now, she said her focus remained on her music career, specifically two exclusive concerts under the Janji With Dayang banner, set to take place in Penang on Aug 23 and at Menara Kuala Lumpur on Sept 27. 'The only dates I'm focused on are for my exclusive shows, because I haven't released a full album in a long time. The last one was in 2017, so this is something very special,' she said at a press conference on Monday. When asked about the possibility of marriage, the singer replied with a smile and said 'Pray for the best for me.' Previously, Dayang was rumoured to be romantically linked to popular singer and composer Hael Husaini, with social media speculating that the two were secretly engaged. However, Hael had publicly denied the claims. On her upcoming shows, the Sarawak-born singer said she intentionally chose to stage mid-scale performances to create a more personal and intimate experience for fans. She also expressed gratitude for the strong support, as tickets for both shows sold out quickly. – Sinar Daily
