For those not familiar with the scandal, a few of the producers have been arrested for manipulating the votes of “Produce 101” and “Produce 48”. For “Produce48”, the top 20 rankings were manipulated. The 12 members who were in the finals of the TV series became the group IZ*ONE. The other groups that were created from the series were I.O.I., Wanna One and X1. Along with IZ*ONE, X1 are also facing suspended activities.

Meanwhile, a Korean netizen said they saw Yabuki Nako and Honda Hitomi at a Olive Young store. Which also confirms that the Japanese members are in Korea and not in Japan.
