A member of THE BOYZ’s staff called him out.
Dispatch has revealed that former THE BOYZ‘s Ju Haknyeon bragged about sleeping with former Japanese pornstar Asuka Kirara at her house.
In an exclusive report, Dispatch sought to piece together what exactly happened on the night between May 29 and May 30 between Ju Haknyeon, Asuka Kirara, and others involved. First, the details.
When: May 30, 2025
Who: Ju Haknyeon, Japanese designer male “A”, the designer’s friend male “B”, Asuka Kirara, Japanese women “C”, “D”, and “E”
Where: At the pub at 1 AM, karaoke at 2 AM, private room bar at 4 AM, Asuka Kirara’s home at 6 AM
What: Ju Haknyeon and the other men went to the pub, then karaoke, then a private room bar. Asuka Kirara and the other women became involved at the private room bar. Later in the night, after drinking together, Ju Haknyeon and Asuka Kirara took a taxi to Asuka Kirara’s home. Ju Haknyeon returned to the THE BOYZ’s dorm in the morning.
How: Shūkan Bunshun‘s report stated that the two were engaging in physical intimacy, such as hugging on the streets. Then, they took a taxi to Asuka Kirara’s home. Dispatch requested comments from both sides to verify their relationship.
Why: One Hundred Label confirmed the details after meeting with Ju Haknyeon and the THE BOYZ members. The agency notified Ju Haknyeon that they would terminate his contract on the basis of his actions adversely affecting the group’s activities (drinking with an adult video actress, public physical affection, and leaving the dorm).
During the meeting with One Hundred Label, Ju Haknyeon claimed he did not “pay” for something but didn’t want to hurt the other members of the group. What he didn’t pay for was not specifically mentioned.
I didn’t pay for it. The [other men] paid for it.
I don’t want the [THE BOYZ] members to be hurt [from my actions] anymore.
— Ju Haknyeon
One Hundred Label had two main concerns: First, what would the reaction be if photos of the two were released? Second, if Ju Haknyeon really did pay for prostitution, what would be the potential legal consequences?

Additionally, One Hundred received testimony from a staff member about Ju Haknyeon’s actions from that night, cementing the agency’s decision to remove him from the group and company.
Ju Haknyeon bragged that he slept with Asuka Kirara.
He didn’t come back to the hotel that night. I asked him where he went and he said he was at Asuka Kirara’s house. He bragged about sleeping with her.
— THE BOYZ’s Staff
The staff further explained that Ju Haknyeon initially decided to leave THE BOYZ on his own, but then later changed his position to one of unfairness and unilateral expulsion.
He decided to leave [the group]. Then, he started to complain about unfairness. He said he didn’t sleep with Asuka Kirara at her house, saying that he just lied about in order to look cool.
— THE BOYZ’s Staff
Dispatch contacted Asuka Kirara, who initially responded, denying the rumors. She also made a post on her personal social media.
Besides my professional [AV] work, I have never engaged in prostitution. No matter how much money has been offered, I have never accepted money in exchange for sex in my personal life.
Of course, that means this time as well. I swear that I did not engage in such acts. You may not believe me, but this is the truth. I have no idea how such a rumor started to spread.
— Asuka Kirara
Dispatch attempted to follow up with Asuka Kirara, asking how she ended up at the private room bar and even offering to send a reporter to Japan for an interview, but she did not respond.
