NJZ’s (NewJeans) Fans Apologize To ADOR’s CEO Ju Young Kim

Recently, an online community post went viral after NJZ’s (NewJeans) fans posted an apology to ADOR’s CEO, Ju Young Kim.

“Hello, this is NJZ’s (NewJeans) fan club. We feel responsible for the serious insults and malicious comments regarding ADOR’s CEO, Ju Young Kim, and apologize for what occurred in our fan club.

The offensive comments made by our members in the fan club cannot be forgiven with any excuse. We also deeply regret that there were no edits or corrections to the comments made.

We sincerely apologize to ADOR’s CEO, as it is unacceptable to insult someone with crude and excessive comments.

We recognize that we are not free from legal issues, including the notices on the fan cafe. We will accept all responses in this regard.

At that time, I was focused on the media attacks and national audits, all of which I experienced for the first time, and I am deeply aware that I have hurt others. I bow my head and thank all those who pointed out the problem that could have been worse if overlooked.

I am ashamed and sorry that I realized this too late through public disclosure. I promise to be more proactive in correction and the way this fan club is operated.

We will do our best to prevent the same thing from happening again and take appropriate action. Whether or not you visit the site again, we will be careful and work hard to avoid situations like this again. I sincerely apologize for causing controversy again.”
