Oh no my HS wasn't the greatest but I can't imagine being so traumatized to a point where one would change their name and identity just to distance yourself and forget.
Hopefully we get to see what happened with Moonyoung during that time too.
We will be going through like that in some of our life and IMO it would be nice if you straight it out when rumors subsides. It may haunt you but it will give you peace of mind
