While Yang Jae-woong, a psychiatrist and broadcaster, delivered a belated apology for the patient's death, the bereaved family was angry, saying "Late Press Play". On top of that, the controversy continues as speculation continues that Yang Jae-woong apologized as criticism poured out against Hani, who is about to marry him.

According to Hankyoreh on the 30th, the mother of the deceased victim A was angry, saying, `Even though I know the phone number of the bereaved family, I never came to the front and told them to talk through a lawyer, let alone apologize, but since the case is reported in the media, I am playing the media belatedly.' Then "When I was protesting in front of the hospital yesterday morning, I was the one who passed by and didn't look at me. I can't accept it because it's not a sincere apology at all."

According to Wonmi Police Station in Bucheon, Gyeonggi Province, a woman in her 30s died on May 27 at a hospital where Yang Jae-woong is the CEO. A was admitted to the hospital to treat addiction to diet drugs containing narcotics, but died on the 27th, 17 days after hospitalization. An autopsy revealed intestinal obstruction.

According to CCTV released afterwards, A knocked on the locked door while clutching his stomach in the isolation room and appealed, `Let me go out.' Accordingly, a nursing assistant and a guardian fed A medicine and bound him to bed. Afterwards, even though A's stomach swelled severely and had a nosebleed, he left the room without any action, only releasing the bond within an hour, and eventually A died.

The bereaved family "The hospital left Mr. A complaining of abdominal pain without giving proper first aidLast month, he filed a complaint with the police against six medical staff, including Yang Jae-woong, on charges of abandonment and professional negligence, and filed a complaint with the National Human Rights Commission of Korea. Accordingly, the police booked the hospital's representative director and employees and launched an investigation.

As the controversy intensified, Yang Jae-woong, who remained silent for two months, wrote in his agency Mystic Story on the 29th that `In connection with the incident that occurred during the hospitalization process, I and the former medical staff cannot hide their terrible feelings, and I sincerely apologize to the bereaved families who are in sorrow after losing the deceased and their families," he bowed his head.

"In response to the ongoing investigation, this hospital is doing its best to cooperate with external agencies, including providing CCTVs containing all the conditions at the time, including the medical chart."Please refrain from speculative articles and provocative reports on the treatment process and incident of the deceased because the details of the treatment process and occurrence are currently under investigation," he said.

In particular, the arrow of criticism was directed to Hani, a former EXID member. Yang Jae-woong is about to marry Hani. In particular, as it became known that the two announced their marriage four days after the death accident, Hani's SNS was criticized with negative reactions, mentioning her marriage to Yang Jae-woong.

On the 30th, Hani's agency Sublime responded, "It is difficult to confirm Hani's position regarding this accident," he declined to comment.
