On the 19th, DKZ's agency, Dong-Yo Entertainment, said on the official fan cafe, "Kyungyoon feels a heavy sense of responsibility for things related to himself and is receiving counseling and treatment at the same time. He received a diagnosis of anxiety disorder and resulting social phobia from his doctor and is receiving treatment for the time being. “I plan to focus on stability,” he explained.
In addition, regarding the 'Cultwo Show' schedule scheduled to appear on the 29th, "We were recently informed by those involved in the event that there have been repeated complaints (to Boseong-gun Office and Kookmin Newspaper) requesting cancellation of their artists' As a result, we have responded directly to the complaints. Five DKZ members (Sehyun, Mingyu, Jaechan, Jonghyung, and Kiseok) will participate in this event as it has caused damage to the work of Boseong County Office officials. We apologize to everyone who has experienced inconvenience due to the sudden change in the number of participants. “He said.
Lastly, the agency said, "Any problems that arise in matters related to artists are due to our company's shortcomings. We are also aware that what we judged to be best at the time may not be to the satisfaction of all fans amidst unprecedented circumstances. " “We will make plans and decisions with the safety and protection of our artists as our most important goal, and in the process, we will carefully consider how to gain as much love and support from our fans as possible.”
Previously, Kyung-yoon's parents were believers in JMS and there was controversy when it was claimed that he was running a cafe related to the religion. In response to this, the agency said, "As a result of checking with DKZ member Kyungyoon's family about the business run by his family, Kyungyoon said that until he confirmed many people's reports and broadcast contents about a specific organization, he was a normal regular person that his parents go to." “I knew it as a church, and I have never encountered or been aware of any content related to the broadcast,” he explained.
They said, "As soon as we found out about the fact today, Gyeongyoon also checked the contents of the broadcast and was astonished. The business run by his family immediately stopped operations," and "At the same time, we checked all aspects related. to the specific organization and decided to withdraw from the school and have any future involvement." “I tell you clearly that there will be no such thing,” he emphasized.
Afterwards, Kyung-yoon also wrote a handwritten letter, saying, "The people who visited that cafe were even more inconsiderate because they came there because of me, and I was afraid that the misunderstanding would grow further with hasty words." He also said, “The words I mentioned without much thought in the past were even more serious.” “I caused a misunderstanding, and I am reflecting and blaming myself to the point where I want to turn back all that time,” he apologized.
