YouTuber Dalssi has once again apologized regarding the allegations of attempting to pass on the jeonse fraud bomb.
On the 17th, Dalssi posted an apology on social media, stating, "I want to talk and apologize once again." Dalssi reflected, "The more I look back, the more I realize how wrong I was. At that time, I thought, 'I disclosed everything about the condition of the house without hiding anything, and I followed the advice of experts, so isn't it okay?' I didn't even recognize that what I did was wrong."
She continued, "I even expressed it with incorrect words, and at that time, I didn't realize it was wrong, and I posted a clarification video that was completely off the mark. My careless actions must have been a significant wound to those who were actually victims of jeonse fraud, but I didn't think about that," she explained. Dalssi also said, "I feel sorry for everyone who was hurt because of me, and I will become a YouTuber Dalssi who can act sincerely."
Previously, in June of last year, Dalssi released a video on her YouTube channel stating that she had been a victim of jeonse fraud. She revealed that she was unable to get her deposit back from the landlord and decided to find a new tenant to receive the deposit before moving out. She explained, "The moment a tenant who wanted to sign a contract appeared, I was in pain every second until the day the contract was signed, fearing that they might change their mind. I was told that it was mandatory to check the landlord's tax delinquency records. The tenant who confirmed this canceled the contract," explaining how her plan fell through.
In the meantime, Dalssi referred to the person she was trying to sign a lease with as "my only bluebird," which sparked controversy. There were criticisms that she was trying to offset her own damage by creating new victims of jeonse fraud, suggesting that this was a form of passing the jeonse fraud bomb.
In response, Dalssi explained, "I thought finding a new tenant as per the words of the landlord and the real estate agent was the only solution. My intention was never to engage in irresponsible behavior like passing the bomb." However, criticism grew that she was not properly acknowledging her mistakes, and the clarification video was made private.
After a period of reflection, Dalssi returned to YouTube after a 6-month hiatus, during which her monetization was cut off.
