A new girl group called Hearts2Hearts, or H2H, from SM Entertainment, is facing a problem just days after their debut. One of the members, Ian, is being accused of bullying people in the past. Someone posted online that Ian used to be a bully in school. The post said she was involved in violent things. One story mentioned that she threw a rock at a boy and broke a fish tank. The person who wrote the post also said that Ian's mother made the situation worse by going to the school and causing trouble. They even claimed that Ian's mother forced the boy's mother to make him apologise.

The post didn't stop there. It also accused Ian and her friends of saying bad things about teachers and even sexually harassing them.

They also said that Ian and her friends hit another friend, and someone recorded it. This video was briefly put on the school's website. The person who wrote the post described Ian as someone who was hard to get along with, and her classmates tried to stay away from her.

The post also mentioned that after Ian left school to become a trainee, her friends got into trouble for smoking and bullying a younger student. The person further said that Ian would have been involved in these things too if she hadn't left.

After this post appeared, another person, who claimed to be Ian's classmate, supported the bullying accusations. They even shared old pictures of Ian as proof. When people online asked for more evidence, this classmate pointed out that kids didn't have cell phones to take pictures and videos back then.

So far, SM Entertainment, the company that manages H2H, has not said anything about these accusations.

This silence is causing more people to talk about the issue online. The claims are serious, and if they are true, they could significantly impact Ian's career and the group's reputation. The situation highlights the importance of looking into a trainee's past before they debut, and the potential impact that past actions can have on a career in the public eye.
