Seungri's Instagram account (@seungriseyo) has been deleted as of today (30th) noon.
Currently, when accessing the corresponding Instagram account, 'Sorry.
The page is not available' message.
Earlier, Seungri stopped uploading Instagram after announcing his retirement in March 2019, but his previous posts and account followers of 8.14 million remained.
However, as Instagram policy prohibits the creation and use of accounts by sex offenders, the account of Seungri, who was convicted, was virtually forcibly deleted by making the first post private and the second account deactivation.
