Singer Kim Jang-hoon apologized for revealing the face of MBLAQ member Mir (real name Bang Cheol-yong)'s wife.
On the 22nd, Kim Jang-hoon posted an apology titled "I offer my apologies regarding Bang Cheol-yong's wedding video" on his YouTube channel.
He said, "I went to yesterday's wedding, sang 'Highway Romance' energetically during the second-part celebratory song segment, ended it enjoyably, and uploaded the video of the bride and groom's exit," and added, "I never dreamed it would be private. I had no idea it was private; I heard from my manager through the news that I was on it and hurriedly took it down, but it had already spread everywhere so I couldn't remove it again."
He continued, "Since my return I've been walking on thin ice trying not to cause controversy, being careful and careful again, but I still behaved shamefully and failed to act my age. I am very embarrassed and sorry," and bowed, saying, "I deserve to be cursed and criticized. From now on I will scrutinize, check and think about everything more obsessively to do my best to prevent this from happening again."
Finally, Kim Jang-hoon apologized again, saying, "These days I've been very busy and my situation has improved a lot, and I've been living with the resolve inside me 'don't be arrogant' and 'always live humbly,' but since this happened I feel utterly pathetic. I am so sorry. Especially Euna, Cheol-yong, Euna's older sister, and her mother... they are special people who have all been like family, so I'm even more sorry for making this mistake."
Earlier, on the 21st Mir held a wedding with a non-celebrity one year older than him at a location in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province. Afterwards, Kim Jang-hoon posted on his social media, along with a video of the wedding scene, the caption "Euna's younger sibling, went to Cheol-yong's wedding and suddenly felt a reality check lol," and the video exposed the face of the non-celebrity bride, drawing criticism.
The following is the full text of Kim Jang-hoon's post.
I offer my apologies regarding Bang Cheol-yong's wedding video.
I went to yesterday's wedding, sang 'Highway Romance' energetically during the second-part celebratory song segment, ended it enjoyably, and uploaded the video of the bride and groom's exit.
I never dreamed it would be private. I had no idea it was private; I heard from my manager through the news that I was on it and hurriedly took it down, but it had already spread everywhere so I couldn't remove it again.
Not knowing that, I happily called, saying it ended so well with Cheol-yong and his family, so I am extremely ashamed.
Since my return I've been walking on thin ice trying not to cause controversy, being careful and careful again, but I still acted below my age and showed an pathetic behavior. I am very embarrassed and sorry.
I deserve to be cursed and criticized. From now on I will scrutinize, check and think about everything more obsessively to do my best to prevent this from happening again.
These days I've been very busy and my situation has improved a lot, and I've been living with the resolve inside me "don't be arrogant" and "always live humbly," but since this happened I feel utterly pathetic.
I am so sorry. Especially Euna and Cheol-yong, Euna's older sister, and her mother... they are special people who have all been like family, so I'm even more sorry for making this mistake.
From today I will strive to become a different person, reflect on myself with the humblest attitude, gather my mind and compose myself. I am very ashamed and sincerely sorry.
Sincerely, Kim Jang-hoon
