Jang Yoon-jung's agency, TN Entertainment, said in an official statement that `Jang Yoon-jung has never lip-synced,' adding that `"Live MR is sometimes used in situations where dance songs or responses have to be induced, but this is a form of live performance, where the voice plays accompanied music and sings live.'
He then explained that it was a decision to communicate with the audience, saying that it was true that he received help from the sound source when he was in poor condition or the sound system was not perfect.
The controversy arose recently as allegations of lip-synching during Jang Yoon-jung's performance were raised in the online community. It was pointed out that Jang Yoon-jung lip-synched when she sang hit songs 'Flower' and 'Love' on the stage of 'Summer Festa' on August 31. The controversy became a hot topic as it led to complaints asking for reconsideration of Jang Yoon-jung's appearance at the 'Good Night Concert' scheduled to be held in Haeundae, Busan.
In response, the agency apologized for the inconvenience some fans must have felt, and "Jang Yoon-jung is always sincerely on stage. I will continue to listen to the fans' voices and do my best to create a better stage"I promised.
Amid the continued controversy over lip-syncing and sluggish performances, interest in Jang Yoon-jung's future activities is increasing, and attention is being paid to what direction the controversy will flow after the agency's explanation.
The following is a full text of Jang Yoon-jung's agency's position
Hello, we're T.N Entertainment.
First of all, I would like to thank everyone who sends a lot of support and love for my artist Jang Yoon-jung.
It was pointed out that Jang Yoon-jung lip-synched at an event in Incheon in August. On stages where many singers have to perform choreography together, sometimes live MR is used depending on the situation. Jang Yoon-jung also needs a large volume of help to dance and draw a response from the audience during the event, so she is singing live with her voice on accompaniment for dance songs. It is true that they are sometimes helped when they are in poor condition or when the on-site sound system is not perfect.
I didn't do lip sync with the music on and mouth shut.
Please apologize and understand to some of the inconveniences, and it was a choice to enrich the stage even more, so please continue to understand.
Jang Yoon-jung is always grateful and sincerely working on every stage.
As much as many people have loved Jang Yoon-jung's stage for a long time, we and the artist promise to listen to your voices and try to make a better stage.
Thank you.
