Jinsol became the next APRIL member to give a statement regarding the bullying case against Hyunjoo.
On Friday (11/06), Jinsol uploaded the latest post on Instagram containing a letter from Hyunjoo when it was his birthday.
The contents of the letter prove that Jinsol and Hyunjoo have a good relationship, not as was accused of him.
While uploading the photo, Jinsol wrote, "Hello. This is APRIL's Jinsol. First, I apologize for causing many people to worry about this controversy. The reason I've been silent on speculation and criticism until now is because of the legal steps we've taken. We are also unable to release our statement and can only wait after long discussions with the agency.”
“Even as I write this, I don't know what to say. Because no matter what I say, people won't believe me, so I have no choice but to remain silent.”
“Thinking about the time we spent with the former members, I entered the agency in February 2015 and was confirmed to debut. With no time to get used to, I had to follow the rules and routines of the debut team, and I was very busy practicing. When the members were confirmed, we only practiced and went back and forth between the dorm and practice room because visits and holidays were not allowed. At that time, most of the members and I lived as a group and started dorm life for several months without knowing each other at all. In the process of getting to know each other, I rarely met the former members. He barely showed up for practice and rarely came to the dorms. We mostly only see each other during our schedules. Because of that, I didn't have the chance to have many private conversations with the former members. That said, there must have been times where we both tried to get to know each other and take care of each other. Even though it was only part of the time, it makes me sad to have to write this because I cherish the memories of that time.”
“In the time I have spent with him and even now, I have never had any evil emotions and I have never acted maliciously. Thank you to the fans who have waited and trusted me despite being tired of the long silence," he wrote.
