[Update] Big Bang's Seungri irritated SNSD fans during recent interview

Big Bang's Seungri took part in an interview that's stirred up some controversy amongst netizens. Seungri was interviewed by Daum's micro-blog 'Yozm,' where fans were able to upload questions for the artist to answer. One fan asked him to name a few celebrities that he was close with."I have a lot of celebrity friendships now. I was close to SNSD, but we're not on good terms lately.. ^^ I won't talk about it ^^ We fought once so.. ^^" He continued, "The most representative is KARA's Goo Hara, but she's going through a bad situation right now, so......" Seungri went on to list 2PM's Chansung, Brown Eyed Girls' Ga-In, F.T. Island's Jong HoonMBLAQ's Thunder, and many others, but netizens expressed that they felt unsettled with the way he listed SNSD and Goo Hara. Criticizing the star, some netizens posted: "Did you need to publicly state that you had a fight?," "I'd like for you to think of others when you're taking part in interviews," "There's a difference between being honest and being thoughtless," and "What does that make SNSD then? They were quiet about it this entire time." However, others supported Seungri by leaving understanding comments like, "It looked like he was trying to be honest throughout his interview, let's try not to push him into a corner." -- [UPDATE] As there have been a lot of requests to post the full question and answer, we've provided a translation below: Fan Question: Seungri-ssi, which celebrity friends do you have? I'm curious as to who you keep in contact with! Please boast about it! Seungri: I have a lot of celebrity friendships now. I was close to SNSD, but we're not on good terms lately.. ^^ I won't talk about it ^^ We fought once so.. ^^ I'm also the same age as 2PM's Hwang Chansung. We're close. The most representative is KARA's Goo Hara, but she's going through a bad situation right now, so it's a bit upsetting.. F.T. Island's Choi Jong Hoon's guitar.. leader.. and, well, there's also MBLAQ's Thunder, Sandara Park's brother. And then.. Brown Eyed Girls' Son Ga-In!! I'm very close with Son Ga-In. And Kang Min Kyung-ssi, Davichi... Honestly, I don't meet in private. We text or call and talk about this and that, it's easy to chat and give each other support. Fan Question: Did you get close while promoting together? Or did you know them for a long time? Seungri: Some I got close with while promoting. There were also some that came up to me first asking to be friends ^^. Yes, and I also have a variety of friends, such as actress Cha Ye Ryun. Fan Question: How did that come about? Seungri: Well, we're not that close.. Just like telling each other to have a happy holiday~ Little bit like that~ I was never really into celebrities, up until recently.. Source: Newsen via Nate
