Amid allegations of an extramarital affair involving A, the representative of JDB Entertainment, the agency has clarified its official position and is in the process of resignation.
Earlier, a media outlet reported suspicions that A had engaged in multiple inappropriate meetings with B. According to the report, the two often met privately after their schedules ended, and affectionate moments such as hugging or holding hands late at night were also captured.
In this context, on the 17th, JDB Entertainment told OSEN, "We are closely confirming the facts regarding the matter recently raised, and the individual has conveyed a willingness to resign to the agency. We sincerely apologize for causing concern with this incident."
The reason this controversy has been particularly shocking is that JDB Entertainment's comedian couple, Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min, are set to marry in July. As an unpleasant incident arose within the agency, some netizens expressed their sadness by saying, "It must have been shocking for Kim Jun-ho" and "This news must be truly surprising while preparing for the wedding."
JDB Entertainment is a representative comedy agency that has housed comedians from KBS' "Gag Concert" for a long time, with many comedy stars including Kim Jun-ho, Kim Ji-min, Kim Dae-hee, Yoo Min-sang, Kim Min-kyung, Hong Yun-hwa, Kim Min-ki, Shin Gi-ru, Oh Na-mi, Hong In-gyu, Park So-young, Lee Jung-in, Han Yoon-seo, and Kim Tae-won actively working.
Amid concerns about image damage due to the personal life controversy of the company's executives, there are continued voices of support wishing that this controversy does not impact the couple, Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min, who are about to marry.
