Ju Hak-nyeon posted a handwritten apology on his account on the 19th. Ju Hak-nyeon said, `I'm sorry to have caused so much concern to the fans and everyone who must have been surprised by the article about me," he bowed his head.
However, it is true that an acquaintance attended a drinking party with him early in the morning of May 30, 2025, and was there, but there is no fact that he has engaged in prostitution or any illegal activities in articles and rumors"I deeply reflect on my actions and sincerely apologize to those who may have been surprised " he denied the allegations of prostitution.

However, after the apology was posted, some fans pointed out that it was awkward to change lines in parts such as 'Fans' and 'Worried'. As a result, suspicions spread that the agency wrote down what it received on paper, and some fans even presented evidence that if they wrote down the information in Kakao Talk messages, the 'Shim' and 'Rye' parts will be divided like Ju Hak-nyeon's statement. Public opinion toward Ju Hak-nyeon is getting colder as suspicions have emerged that Ju Hak-nyeon's apology is an insincere ghostwriting.
Meanwhile, The Boyz agency Won Hundred announced on the 16th that Ju Hak-nyeon will be suspended due to personal reasons. Since then, Japanese media have caught Ju Hak-nyeon privately touching Japanese AV actor Asuka Kirara at the end of May. In addition, there were reports that Joo Hak-nyeon handed over the money after spending a night with the AV actor, raising suspicions of prostitution.
In response, Wonhundred announced Ju Hak-nyeon's withdrawal from the team and termination of the exclusive contract, saying, `We took the seriousness of the matter seriously.' However, Ju Hak-nyeon denied the allegation of prostitution.
