As serious allegations surrounding actor Darren Wang unfold, the Chinese entertainment industry is shaken.

Known for his role in Fall in Love at First Kiss, Wang, according to KBiZoom, is now under fire with allegations that he instigated a violent assault against two individuals, making his sudden turn in public image widely shocking.

Wang is no stranger to controversy. He is regarded as a notorious playboy in showbiz circles.

Although previous scandals did not threaten his career, the present claims could have serious consequences.

Among the wilder allegations reported is that Wang may have instructed his close friend Yu Tang-min to carry out the assault, which nearly resulted in fatalities.

The details have left fans and the public grappling with how someone once celebrated as a youth icon could become embroiled in such severe accusations.

Also, some of Wang's prior relationships are under fire. He was then said to have had an affair with famous director Frankie Chen, whom he called a key person in his career.

The two were seen sharing intimate moments during a celebration party for Our Times, with witnesses noting that Chen reciprocated Wang's advances.

However, after backlash from online commenters, Chen later denied the allegations, insisting their connection was not romantic and reaffirming her loyalty to her husband of almost twenty years.

And, as if things weren't bad enough, Wang was also connected to K-Pop idols Seungri and Jung Joon Young's Burning Sun controversy.

In 2019, when their crimes—including prostitution mediation and drug trafficking—were exposed, Wang's name surfaced amid rumors of connections to the disgraced artists.

Some photos of Wang partying with the now-accused Seungri and others at different nightclubs opened up speculation about whether Wang was involved or not.

Wang's reps vehemently denied the allegations, saying, "The rumors on Darren Wang are totally untrue and slanderous to his character. We would like to be very clear, however, that he and Seungri were not close and did not have any business relationships with one another."

In the face of such denials, Wang canceled a string of events he had slated to appear at, sparking suspicion among the public and speculation in the media that he was evading being confronted about his links to the scandal.

In the midst of progress over these developments, further work has come to fans and industry insiders wondering how Darren Wang's career, which used to glitter like awards, could have plummeted so rapidly when marred with such shocking accusations.
