The debunker "Kim Gun-woo was more than Park Yeon-jin (Im Ji-yeon), the perpetrator of the school violence "The Glory."," he said, revealing his psychiatric medical records.

As a result, Mnet spent time leaving only the position of "In fact". And Kim Gun-woo released an apology on the 21st. It was an explanation four days after the first controversy erupted on the 17th.




"I would like to express my sincere apologies and apologies for any reason for the words and actions that have hurt many people's hearts", he apologized.

He said "I had a hard time as a leader to lead the team at the time, and the process of leading fellow trainees was inexperienced and clumsy with the responsibility and pressure to do well. I hurt a lot of people in the process. I sincerely apologize for this and am reflecting on myself.'

"There are also a number of untrue and distorted parts of the content," said Kim Gun-wooAs a result of consideration, I post a letter of reflection after deciding that it is right to sincerely apologize for the wrong part rather than explaining the facts and untruths. Once again, I'm sorry, and I'll take this as a lesson and try to become a better and mature person in the future," he said.




However, this time, it was pointed out that Kim Gun-woo and Kang Woo-jin were trainees of Wake One.

Wake One admitted that "Kim Gun-woo Kang Woo-jin participants are currently trainees of Wake One."

"Kim Gun-woo was in the process of supporting and screening the program before signing the Wake One trainee contract. Kang Woo-jin said, "There was a difference in the musical concept from the existing trainees who were preparing for the program, and he had no experience in idol training." He judged that it was more appropriate to appear as an individual than a Wake One team. As a result, I sincerely apologize for causing confusion and concern to the program's production team, viewers, and fans."




Also "Wake One is solely responsible for this incident. After a long and in-depth discussion to make a responsible choice, Wake One decided to terminate the trainee contract through an agreement with trainee Kim Gun-woo and Kang Woo-jin. The two participants will continue to appear as individuals as they did when they first applied for the program."
