Happy Birthday to one of my favorite GROOVL1N artist: nafla

I've been listening to his songs during the pandemic times (2020). And up until now, it became one of those things that made me happy.

I miss you very much. I hope you and Ravi will be okay. I love you. 🤘🏻❤️🤘🏻

Hi, do you know about the Ravi situation?

I do know. For those who have not heard:

He admitted to the charges of evading military service as an active duty soldier by using a broker to fake medical records and allow him to serve as public service worker instead. Essentially these are fraud charges, potentially also special considerations for military court but I am not sure whether that would apply or how it works. He will not be arrested, but he and the 100 or so other male celebrities found to have to used brokers for similar purposes will now have to go to court for the charges and carry the consequences. Unfortunately this might mean Ravi's career in Korea is over. The public over there looks very harshly on evading military service or fraud related to this, so there's a good chance Ravi and his whole company GROOVL1N will be boycotted in Korea, especially as one other artist managed by Ravi's company has had the same charges raised against him.

It's very frustrating. I remember when Ravi turned the age that was the last possible cut off for enlisting and how somehow he was not enlisted, and then later when it was announced he would be serving as a public service worker there was no explanation why. When Leo had to enlist, he gave a full explanation of why he had to enrol in public service instead of active duty and even apologised (needlessly) and it was because of his mental health conditions and not passing the health exam for active duty. For Ravi there was no such announcement or explanation. I mean, celebrities don't owe the public such personal information but considering how another member from the same group chose to give full disclosure, it didn't quite make sense that this didn't come regarding Ravi's situation and I always wondered.

Hi! Sorry for the random message but do you know what ever ended up happening with the Ravi/Nafla military situation?

The prosecution is seeking 2 years for Ravi and 2 1/2 years for Nafla. This was from back in April. However, the trial/sentencing isn't complete yet.

(this is short + has no sources since I'm on mobile right now but there's a few articles on this if you search it up!)

[sadfragilegirl]

I know that I would get criticized and received hate messages at the end but...

I love Nafla as much I love Ravi.

End of story.

So please understand this because I can't lose both.

Ravi made me smile for many years

While Nafla made me smile during the pandemic years (Year 2020)

Everyone's talking about Nafla...They used to love him after he became part of GROOVL1N but now...they hate him now.

And it hates my guts.

It made me want to go offline and cancel the party.

I've always wondered why justhis left indigo music and he went to groovl1n. he was perfect with yk yanghongwon, swings, kid milli, even with no:el. do u know why he left???

i don't know!

possible reasons that i can think of (they're all kind of similar)

he wanted a change of image. indigo had this "bad kids" image, and gloovl1n had a cleaner, more idol-like image (created by ravi) at the time

indigo didn't really take him far. he was always in the shadow of the chaotic, fun kids, while he was the skilled serious rapper in the background that many people didn't pay attention to despite being indigo fans. when he became famous in recent years it wasn't for his music and it was not due indigo's promotion, but because of smtm

i think he's been becoming less focused on rap and more on the (entertainment) business world. i know the reason he doesn't make a lot of music isn't that he doesn't like it but because of his mental health, but he's active in other areas like photoshoots, ads, merch, appearances on youtube/tv, and the crypto currency and nft business. and indigo is more about music

overall, i think he's grown away from indigo. i also didn't expect him to leave, but wasn't surprised when he did (- nothing surprises me anymore in khh :D).

also indigo has kind of fallen apart, kid milli and yanghongwon are the only "original" members. swings resigned as ceo and signed an exclusive contract as an artist elsewhere, jvcki left, no:el left. they signed more members but it's not the same anymore, so maybe he thought why not start fresh somewhere else.

Just wanted to throw out there that of the recent Korean news articles only one has claimed Ravi’s admitted guilt but of course that’s the one that gets translated by all the English news sites 🙄 not saying he’s 100% for sure innocent, but I don’t think this whole situation is quite over yet

Yeah the whole thing seems to be really confusing and im checking twt rn and cant seem to find much… like people are either not talking about and others are saying groovl1n hasn’t posted a statement they’re waiting for them to release one bc they dont trust the articles, which is fair. And its really hard to confirm sources under these articles bc theyre always in korean…

as the best friend of a vixx stan, from what i remember, hongbin left cause people were mad at him for not liking some shinee remix. n left after he finished military service, i think he wanted to focus on acting more, so he went to sign with an acting agency. ravi left jellyfish a couple years ago but not vixx, and started his own company groovl1n, then recently when it was time for him to go to military service, he posted a pic saying he was going and everything, but several days later an article came out like "ravi being charged for evading military service" so ig hes going to court or smth sdjkfdsk

there was also that rumor of an idol caught doing meth, and all the descriptors, (in a group that debuted in 2012, then left the group, etc) kinda matched hongbin, but hongbin literally was like "i dont have time to do meth, im a loser who streams all day as my job lmao"

i saw in a couple articles that he was apparently slandering shinee and rv and i think like 1 or 2 other artists so i think it was a little more than just not liking a shinee remix. personally i think everyone can have their opinions and not like whatever an older group did, but i also can see how that was problematic since respecting your elders is a really big thing over there and i can also see how one idol slandering other idols on a stream would be a lot of bad press regardless. do i think it's leaving-the-group worthy? no

all that said, i'm assuming that means that leo did not show up to hongbin's place and demand he leave the group? tbh i was hoping that was what went down bc a couple articles i read when i was looking it up said it was like "speculated" that it happened (idk why they think that happened) and the idea that he actually did that is fucking hilarious. kinda bummed that's not how it went down 😔

but anyway i’ll miss n <3

La orden de arresto de Ravi de VIXX es desestimada después de que admite cargos de corrupción relacionada con el ejército.

La orden de arresto para Ravi de VIXX ha sido desestimada luego de su supuesto intento de evadir el servicio militar.

A principios de este año, se informó que un grupo de corredores fue arrestado por cargos de corrupción para evadir el servicio militar al designar a sus clientes con un neurólogo en un gran hospital en Seúl y luego darles un diagnóstico médico falso de epilepsia para ayudarlos a estar exentos del servicio militar o recibir un grado militar menor.

Según los informes, estos corredores se promocionaron a sí mismos diciendo que sus servicios fueron utilizados por un famoso rapero ídolo.Los informes afirmaron además que este rapero se retiró de un programa de variedades en mayo y se enlistó en octubre, lo que se alineó con la salida de Ravi de “2 Days & 1 Night” y su posterior enlistamiento, lo que lo llevó a ser nombrado el ídolo en cuestión.

En el momento de los informes, la agencia de Ravi, GROOVL1N, compartió que estaban examinando de cerca la verdad de la situación.La orden de arresto de Ravi fue solicitada el 2 de marzo por el equipo de investigación especial del Tribunal del Distrito Sur de Seúl por evasión del servicio militar.

El artista está siendo investigado por la policía por presuntamente evadir el servicio militar a través del Sr. Gu, un corredor que fue llevado a juicio por proporcionar falsos diagnósticos de epilepsia a quienes intentaban evadir el servicio militar.El 6 de marzo, el juez principal Kim Ji Sook del Tribunal del Distrito Sur de Seúl investigó a Ravi por presuntamente violar la Ley del Servicio Militar y examinó la validez de su orden de arresto.

Tras el interrogatorio, el juez desestimó la orden y afirmó:

“Es difícil determinar que haya riesgo de fuga o destrucción de pruebas”.Como Ravi había admitido los cargos, el juez consideró innecesario el arresto. Explicaron: “Si bien estos cargos son graves, es estándar realizar investigaciones de sospechosos sin detención. A la luz de las pruebas objetivas recopiladas hasta el momento, [el sospechoso] ha admitido los cargos. Su residencia y carrera son estables y al considerar varios factores, como los lazos sociales, es difícil decir que es necesario arrestar al sospechoso en esta etapa”.

En relación con este caso, se dice que el tribunal ha ido a juicio con un total de 23 personas, incluido el Sr. Gu. Además de Ravi, se informa que más de 100 personas están siendo investigadas actualmente, algunas de ellas en deportes profesionales y la industria del entretenimiento.

El mes pasado, el rapero Nafla, compañero de agencia de Ravi en GROOVL1N, fue arrestado por presuntamente violar la Ley del Servicio Militar y recibir un trato preferencial mientras servía en el ejército como trabajador del servicio público. El mismo juez principal revisó la orden de Nafla, que finalmente se consideró válida.
