Rising actress Kim Hieora is facing a huge crisis as her "dark" past has been exposed to the public. Earlier this month, her bullying scandal surfaced the Internet, causing a massive stir among the viewers.

Kim Hieora Causes Massive Stir For School Violence

The Hallyu scene is in shambles after Kim Hieora, one of the hottest stars today, gets exposed for her dark past.

She is facing a crisis after being embroiled in a controversy over school violence to which she denies instantly. Kim Hieora, however, admits to being a "bystander."

The rising actress was a member of the school gang called Big Sangji at Sangji Girls' Middle School but her agency, GRAM Entertainment, firmly denied her participation in school violence.

Amidst the issue, the fans weigh in and express their opinions. Some say that the actress is only dragged due to her skyrocketing popularity after "The Glory" and "The Uncanny Counter 2."

Unfortunately, many believe that she's guilty of everything that has been said about her. To recall, the production crew of "The Glory" did a background check on the cast to avoid issues as the drama involves the themes of bullying and school violence.

It is speculated that Kim Hieora had lied and even created a "sob story" for her audition, saying that she had been bullied due to her "unique appearance" and Christian background.

During the broadcast of "The Glory," Kim Hieora stopped operating her café in Seoul, closing it temporarily for a simple renovation.
