Singer Jessi, who was rumored to be involved in a fan assault case, was investigated by the police.

On the afternoon of the 16th, Jesse visited the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul and was investigated.

The police called Jesse as a suspect and started an investigation, and asked about the identity and relationship of the assault perpetrator and the process before and after the incident.



Before the police appearance, Jesse told reporters, `I hope we find the person who hit us quickly, and I hope we get punished"I'm going to say everything today."

When asked by reporters if she saw the perpetrator for the first time on the day, Jesse said "I saw it for the first time" and also told the victim "I'm so sorry."," he said.



Earlier on the 11th, a report was released on JTBC 'Case Team Leader' saying 'Fan who requested a photo from singer Jessi and was assaulted by the group'.

Early on the 29th of last month, Jesse's fan, 18-year-old A, saw Jesse in an alley on his way to the convenience store. Then, I asked Jesse if he could take a picture of me, and at that time, a man in the group stopped A by swearing in English. Jesse restrained the man and politely refused, saying "I'm sorry", and A also backed down, saying "I'm sorry", but another man claimed to hit A in the face at that time.



Mr. A "It's a person, but he didn't take any action. I don't know if he ran away because he didn't want to get involved, but I'm very disappointed (with Jessie). Even if I watch it on video, I just watch it. He added, "He's my favorite celebrity, but I'm very disappointed about that." The victim also claimed that both the perpetrator and Jesse disappeared from the scene while waiting for the police after reporting to the police.

The informant's mother visited Jesse's agency on the day of the incident, and the agency explained that the perpetrator was a Chinese acquaintance of a producer close to Jesse. Police said they have yet to find the man who committed the crime due to his identity.

On the 12th, Jesse said, "I sincerely apologize for causing concern to many people due to the recent reports of assault related to me," he bowed his head.

During a personal meeting with an acquaintance recently, the victim, a fan of mine, asked me for a photo, but I politely refused twice because it was late at night, and at that moment, I was suddenly assaulted by a person I saw for the first time that day"I explained the situation.

Jessie said, `I was so embarrassed by the sudden situation at the time that I couldn't care for the fan very carefully"I feel very sorry for my fans, regardless of the circumstances, for such unforeseen damage, and I feel moral responsibility." he said.

Since the incident occurred, my agency and I have been working to contact the victim's mother, so that the victim can quickly find the perpetrator, receive an apology and compensation, and that the perpetrator can receive reasonable punishment," he said of the current situation.

In addition, we sincerely ask that you only reflect unilateral claims or refrain from reporting based on speculation in relation to this case"
