At the time, we were about 20 years old.
My sister and I had moved to Seoul, leaving behind our hometown.
With no adults around to rely on, we only had each other for support,she revealed.
My response was to prevent anyone from hurting my sister, which led to the text message incident.
I know sending those messages was foolish, and I still regret it.
Although I previously apologized to Ahreum for the texts, I still feel deeply sorry,she admitted.
This brought renewed attention to Ryu Hyo Youngs past threatening texts to former T-ara memberAhreum.
Ryu Hyo Young expressed,At just 20 years old, I felt powerless.
I was terrified that my sister might make a drastic decision if I stood by and did nothing.
It was my immature and inadequate attempt to protect my beloved family,she explained.
I died worrying about their lives.
Our members did nothing wrong,implying that Ryu Hwa Young was not bullied.
The original T-ara members often used violence and verbal abuse,she claimed.
