Recently, a suspicion of sexual harassment was posted that Na Sang-hyun, a band vocalist and guitarist, touched a woman's thigh pretending to be intoxicated while drinking. In response, Na Sang-hyun posted an apology saying, `After drinking in the past, I hurt the victim at a time when I can't remember the specific circumstances.'
However, the agency pre-emptively posted a statement on the premise of moral responsibility immediately after the report was made public, even when the facts were not sufficiently confirmed"After looking closely at and confirming the situation with the artist, he denied the allegation of sexual harassment, saying, "We reveal that the actions mentioned in the post are not true."
▶Next is Na Sang-hyun's band's position
Hello, I'm Jae Newry Co., Ltd.
We were filing a complaint against the distributor of false information (hereinafter referred to as the suspect) against Na Sang-hyun's band through the law firm's intensive reading, and submitted a written complaint on November 26, 2025 after receiving the suspect's sincere apology and apology.
A few months ago, the suspect publicly posted an article online that corresponds to false information that a member of Na Sang-hyun's band has no choice but to think is morally inappropriate.
As we proceeded with the complaint, we were able to identify the suspect.
And through the suspect's parents and legal representatives, they confirmed that the suspect is a minor, and that the suspect's mind and body are seriously weaker than generally thought.
After completing the suspect's sincere apology, apology, and agreement, we filed a withdrawal of charges against the suspect for spreading false information, defamation, obstruction of business, and slander.
The agreement does not include any financial information.
In addition to this case, we are conducting several complaints and accusations, and we would like to confirm legal responsibility for each case even if it takes time.
The reason for this is not to punish someone, but rather to hope that misunderstandings and false facts about the artist will disappear as soon as possible.
Now all the unscrupulous posts about artists who are gone online are not true.
The headquarters and the artist's immature initial response are also deeply responsible, and we promise to do our best to prevent such infringement of the artist's rights and interests from now on.
We ask for your loving support for Na Sang-hyun's band's music activities, which will be active again.
Thank you.
