Who is Kirara Asuka? Japanese adult star linked to Ju Haknyeon's controversial exit and another idol
The K-pop world witnessed two major scandals break on June 18, 2025 — the first involving former NCT member Taeil, who admitted to all charges of special quasi-rape during his initial court appearance, and the second being THE BOYZ removing Ju Haknyeon from the group following his meeting with a former Japanese AV (adult video) actress. However, Taeil's admission to sexually assaulting an intoxicated woman alongside two non-celebrity acquaintances last year was seemingly overshadowed by Ju Haknyeon's encounter with Kirara Asuka. His departure from THE BOYZ has since reignited public interest in Asuka — not only because of her recent link to the K-pop idol, but also due to a similar incident from her past. Who is Kirara Asuka? Kirara Asuka, born October 2, 1988, in Tokyo, rose to fame after debuting in Japan's AV industry in 2007. Following a successful run of over a decade, she stepped away from adult films in 2020 to focus on life as a social media influencer. She later made appearances in mainstream media, including roles in Ultraman Ginga and related specials. Asuka reportedly met Ju Haknyeon during a late-night gathering in Tokyo on May 29. The incident has brought renewed attention to her dating life, especially after Chosun Biz highlighted her previous relationship with a younger YouTuber who had publicly spoken about his disability. Ju Haknyeon removed from THE BOYZ So what is Ju Haknyeon's connection to Kirara Asuka? According to eyewitnesses, the two were seen drinking and behaving intimately throughout the evening in Tokyo — a sighting that caused a storm of backlash from Korean fans. One Hundred Label later announced that Ju Haknyeon would be leaving both the group and the agency following the reports. He had already been on hiatus since June 16, and the company cited the "severity of the issue" in its decision to terminate his contract. 주학년 더보이즈 탈퇴 및 전속계약 해지 안내 Kirara Asuka's past link to another idol resurfaces An old tabloid report has resurfaced online, once again drawing attention to Kirara Asuka's past connection with a K-pop idol. The article, originally published by Shukan Josei eight years ago, claimed that Asuka and Hey! Say! JUMP's Inoo Kei were spotted together on what appeared to be a romantic getaway in Singapore. The two were reportedly photographed spending time at Marina Bay Sands, including sharing a jacuzzi. At the time, Inoo Kei's agency, Johnny & Associates, denied the rumors of a relationship. They stated the pair had first met at a friend's dinner party and that their encounter in Singapore was purely coincidental. Asuka's agency backed the explanation, while she herself remained silent on the matter. Now, almost a decade later, Asuka finds herself at the center of another idol-related controversy — and comparisons are inevitable. But this time, the fallout has been much more severe, sparking intense backlash and far-reaching consequences. For all the latest K-drama, K-pop, and Hallyuwood updates, keep following our coverage here.
