Simon D’s ex-girlfriend also got some attention when she requested Vibe‘s “Even Though You Hate Me, Give It One More Try,” on Kim Shin Young’s radio show saying:
“It just feels like there are a lot of people who are hating on each other these days.”

In related news, Swings appeared on radio show, ‘Shindong’s Shimshimtapa,’ on August 28th where he discussed the diss battles, and the rap battle he started. When asked if he regretted it he said:
“I don’t regret it… But I didn’t expect such a storm….When I get angry, I speak in a coarse manner. But I normally have a timid personality… Because I cursed others out through my diss [tracks], others can curse at me too.”
Shindong also asked if he had a hard time sleeping when he saw negative comments, Swings said:
“Honestly, yes.”
He also made sure to apologize to E-Sens, JTong, and his agency CEO Rhymer saying:
“[to E-Sens & J-Tong]I think it was low of me to try to win by mentioning you. I’m sorry and I will make music that doesn’t disappoint from now on…[to Rhymer] I am very sorry for releasing a track without telling you. Thank you. I will do my best to devote myself to music…I have no regrets. I’m going to go my way until the end. My goal is to make the people who dislike me into my fans through my music…Through this controversy, I think I’ve been called ‘pig’ 5 million times. To be honest, I was on a diet, so I thought to myself that I should have started it earlier.”
Sounds to me like he does have regrets…
