Another AKB48 scandal? AKB48 Team 8 member Yokoyama Yui kissing another guy?

AKB48 Team 8 member Yokoyama Yui represents Aomori Prefecture and Team K.

On September 6th, someone posted a photo of a guy and girl kissing.  While the guy’s face is hidden, the person’s face was seen and many people said it was Yokoyama Yui and the birthmarks on the photo and Yokoyama match and was appearently the same hairstyle and jacket worn by Yokoyama back in May 2016.

The photos show two people not wearing much of anything and the other with the two kissing.

AKB48・チーム8の横山結衣さんと男性の2ショット画像が出回っていますが、これらは合成画像です。
（3枚目だけは確信はないですが、横山さんの首が男の肩に触れており、首が締まる状態で普通はキスしないのと１・2枚目と同種のスタンプを用いている事からおそらく）#横山結衣 pic.twitter.com/uss5bAZH3k

横山結衣ちゃん、結構好きだったのに〜(ファンとして)
ショックというよりはあきれた感が強いwww

まぁ〜前田敦子とか指原莉乃もそうだったから、AKBの裏文化なんでしょうね。

AKB48 groups have a strict no-dating “Love Ban” rule and in 2016, Yokoyama was a member of AKB48 Team 8.  The idol is currently 18-years-old and the leaked photo was back when she was in junior high school.

Fans are reacting with shock on SNS:

Yokoyama Yui, please tell me this is not real.

I looked at the photo.  I think this photo is faked.

I can’t believe she kissed a guy and is seen in photos with only her underwear.  I don’t like this!
