ILY:1 member Rona is facing a terrifying sasaeng fan situation.
On July 8, Rona revealed on Bubble that a sasaeng fan found her phone number and home address. The fan even came to where she lives and spread her personal information to others.
Rona shared how scared she is by the invasion, apologizing to fans and begging for the stalking to stop.
“I’ve always thought of Only:1 as truly close friends and family, so I shared my daily life with you all… But I didn’t know that doing that would lead to my personal information leaking. People now know my phone number, where I live, our schedule… they even came to see me and found out personal details about me, and now they’re telling others…I’m really scared and don’t know what to do… I’m really scared.”

She asked fans to understand her fear and called for an end to this behavior, despite appreciating fan support.
“It’s true that I should’ve been more careful, but I really hope this doesn’t happen again. I wish it would stop… I really love Korea, and I wanted to be here for a long time, but now Korea feels so scary… My hands are still shaking from fear.”
