Yoo Seung-joon posted on his account on the 13th, `I never wanted a pardon, and I don't even know the source of who submitted the statement. Even in the official fan club, it's not their position and they don't know at all, but why should I suffer so much because of a statement submitted by a person who doesn't even know who I am?"
Then "I have no desire to make money in Korea." I don't intend to benefit and I don't want to. I was planning to enter the country for the restoration of my reputation. It is very regrettable that we are involved in this issue itself."
Fans of the Yoo Seung-joon gallery issued a statement on the 9th and 12th asking President Lee Jae-myung to allow Yoo Seung-joon to enter the country. As a result, President Lee's writing during his tenure as mayor of Seongnam in 2015 was talked about again. At the time, President Lee called Yoo Seung-joon a `Those who abandoned their country to avoid the obligations of the people' and"would you like to return to Korea. Do you need more money from Koreans' pockets. Or did you suddenly become full of patriotism. You who sang in the Korean language and enjoyed all the benefits and benefits as a Korean citizen, but abandoned the Republic of Korea and chose the path of a foreigner to avoid it at a time when you had to fulfill your people's obligations. Should we give preferential treatment to foreigners again and be hurt by the relative deprivation. Now, I hope you will forget the Republic of Korea, which has been faithful to your country, betrayed, and abandoned."
Yoo Seung-joon abandoned his Korean nationality and obtained U.S. citizenship after leaving the country in 2002, saying he would return from an overseas performance before joining the military. The Ministry of Justice classified Yoo as prohibited from entering the country, but Yoo applied for a visa for overseas Koreans in 2015 After being rejected, he filed a lawsuit against the Consulate General of LA to cancel the disposition of refusal to issue visas. Yoo Seung-joon won two administrative lawsuits, but was denied a visa last year, and is in the process of filing a third administrative lawsuit against the Consulate General of LA and the Minister of Justice.

I never wanted a pardon,
We don't even know the source of who reissued the statement.
Even the official fan club says it's not their position and they don't know at all
Do I have to suffer this inconvenience because of a statement submitted by someone I don't even know who I am?
That's the only thing that's in my head
I don't know if you're trying to wry me like that,
I don't even want to make money in Korea.
I think I believe someone is waiting with a bundle of money when I go.
I don't intend to be attacked, and I don't want to.
I wanted to enter the country for the restoration of my honor.
It is very regrettable that this issue itself is intertwined.
"A scary world where the real becomes fake and the fake becomes real."
The law should be equal to everyone and equity should not go against it.
