DKZ Kyung-yoon apologizes for JMS believer controversy, "There is no shame in those who visited"
Kyungyoon posted a handwritten letter on the official fan cafe on the 14th. Kyungyoon said, "I am sincerely sorry to Ari (fan club name), who must have been the most surprised and disappointed by me. It is not enough to always give good news to those who watch, support and love me, but my shortcomings have made them have a hard time. “I think it's lean," he said. He continued, "It's already too late, but I'm really sorry for coming to you only now. I didn't have the courage to come to you first. I was very scared. They were the ones who cared for me and supported me more than anyone else, so I foolishly hesitated even more. “He confessed.
Kyung-yoon said, "The people who visited that cafe were even more disrespectful because they went there because of me, and I was afraid that my hasty words would lead to further misunderstandings. So I thought a lot about what to say to start and “I came here because I thought I couldn't be late,” he said. He continued, “I have disappointed many people with my immature response. Words I said without much thought in the past have led to even greater misunderstandings, and I am reflecting and blaming myself to the point where I want to turn back all that time. “I'm so sorry,” he reflected. He added, “Finally, I sincerely apologize once again for disappointing you.”
Recently, the Netflix documentary 'I Am God: People Who God Betrayed' deals with the reality of cults, and cults are becoming controversial. In particular, the atrocities of JMS leader Jeong Myeong-seok are enraging the public. Among these, suspicions were raised that Kyung-yoon was a JMS believer. This is because the cafe run by Kyung-yoon's parents is included among the JMS-related places. The agency said, "Kyung Yoon was also shocked after seeing the contents of the broadcast, and the business run by his family will immediately cease operations. At the same time, we will confirm all aspects related to the specific organization and clearly state that we will leave the school and have no involvement in the future." “He stated his position.
◆ Below is the full statement of DKZ Kyung-yoon's position.
Hello, this is Kyungyoon.
First of all, I sincerely apologize to Ari, who must have been the most surprised and disappointed by me. It's not enough to always give good news to those who watch over me, support me, and give me love, but I think I've made them go through a difficult time because of my shortcomings.
It's already late, but I'm really sorry for only coming to you now.
I didn't have the courage to come to you first. I was very scared. They were the ones who cared for me and supported me more than anyone else, so foolishly I became even more hesitant.
The people who visited that cafe were even more inconsiderate because they went there because of me, and I was afraid that their hasty words would further increase misunderstandings. So, I thought a lot about what words to start with and how to express my apologies, and I came here thinking that it wouldn't be too late.
I was disappointed by many people with my immature response.
Things I said without much thought in the past have led to further misunderstandings, and I am reflecting and blaming myself to the point where I want to turn back all that time. I am so sorry for being lacking in so many things.
Lastly, we sincerely apologize once again for disappointing you.
