Roy Kim expected to graduate Georgetown University next week despite chatroom controversy

AKP STAFF

Roy Kim is expected to graduate Georgetown University next week despite the recent chatroom controversy.

On May 7, reports stated Roy Kim was currently in Washington D.C. for his upcoming graduation from Georgetown University. However, his label Stone Music Entertainment relayed, "Roy Kim is currently in South Korea with his family. We're looking into his graduation plans."

It's reported the singer, who's charged been with distributing illegal hidden camera media of women without their consent, has finished his finals. Previously, there was a petition on change.org to suspend the star from college. If no action is taken against his graduation, Roy Kim will be graduating from Georgetown University on May 15. 

Stay tuned for updates.

He will graduate. Why? Because South Korea is a different jurisdiction than Georgetown University. Also, what he did in school vs what he did on his social life should be two separate things. Yes, what he did was absolutely wrong and terrible and should be punished for it. But this scandal affecting his graduation is also wrong.

Let him graduate. What he did was wrong, but his wrongdoings - that are completely unrelated to his school life - should not interfere with this.
