Jessie's agency, DOD, said on the 18th "I would like to apologize once again for the recent bad news that has caused concern.""The Company and Jesse have had many conversations about their future activities and, at Jesse's request, have decided to terminate the exclusive contract effective October 18, 2024 after deliberation." he said.
He added that "Although it is a short period of time, I would like to express my gratitude to Jesse for being with us and sincerely support him for the future.""
Jesse has recently been suspected of being involved in fan assault. JTBC 'Case Team Leader' released a report on the 11th saying 'Fans who were assaulted by the group after requesting a photo from singer Jessi ' According to the report, Jesse was with an 18-year-old fan, A, who asked for a photo in the early morning of the 29th of last month, at the place where his party unilaterally assaulted him. The controversy grew when Jesse reportedly left the post without taking any action to stop the assault. A later filed a complaint against Jesse and his party on charges of assault.
Jesse said on the 12th that he did not know the perpetrator of the assault. During a recent personal meeting with an acquaintance, 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. At that time, I was so embarrassed by the sudden situation that I couldn't consider the fan carefully. Regardless of the circumstances, I feel very sorry for my fan for such an unexpected damage and feel moral responsibility.'
Jesse then attended the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul on the 16th and was investigated. The police called Jesse as a suspect and conducted an investigation, and the investigation reportedly asked about the identity and relationship of the assailant 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," he said.
