Hyunjin's apology letter on ig

Translation from Soompi
JYP Ent. official statement​

"Hello, this is JYPE.
First of all, we apologize for causing discomfort to many with negative news regarding our artist Stray Kids’ Hyunjin.
As it is a matter to be cautious about, we ask for your understanding as it took some time to release a statement based on the exact facts after investigating through various routes.
We listened to the situation of that time from the fellow students who attended the same school as the member, teachers, and surrounding people, and with the permission of those who wrote the posts, we directly met up with them and listened to their opinions.
Combining the information from various people, their memories of that time are completely different from each other, so there was some difficulty in clearly confirming any of the facts.
However, there are people who were hurt by Hyunjin’s immature and improper actions in the past. Hyunjin deeply regrets and reflects on himself regarding this, so he met up directly with those who wrote the posts and sincerely apologized.
For resolving misunderstandings with Hyunjin, for accepting his sincere apology, and for showing support for his future, we once again express sincere gratitude.
If there are any others who were unable to be reached but have been hurt by Hyunjin’s actions in the past, we express apologies.
Hyunjin has resolved to live properly while always self-reflecting from now on, and we will also pay extra effort for our artist to go down the correct path.
Lastly, we ask that everyone refrain from spreading false rumors and speculative reports, and we will take more careful measures regarding the trainee and artist selection process that we weren’t alert about before.
Thank you.

Hyunjin apology letter​

Hyunjin also shared the following handwritten letter on Instagram:

Hello, this is Stray Kids’ Hyunjin.
First of all, I sincerely apologize to those who were hurt by my improper actions during my school years. Looking back on times when I was more lacking, I am embarrassed and have no excuse. I have realized that my actions and words that did not know how to be considerate of others have hurt others. It is too late, but I will deeply reflect on myself.
Whether it was intended or not, I don’t think I can be forgiven at all for giving unforgettable to pain to someone.
I am deeply reflecting on myself as I know well that just because I apologized and they accepted the apology doesn’t mean that the pain I gave in the past will be erased entirely.
Although this is shameless, I want to express gratitude to those who were hurt by me for allowing me to directly meet them to belatedly apologize and ask for forgiveness through this letter.
If there happen to be others who have been hurt by my improper actions during my school years who I cannot meet directly, I want to express my apologies at least through writing like this.
I sincerely apologize for causing deep disappointment to the many people who have supported me."

I'm glad that he went to apologize to the other students that he hurt with his actions. I have no apology to accept since I wasn't hurt by what he did nor directly affected by his actions. I can only hope that he changed for real from the person he was in the past because what he did was not and is not okay.

It seems like my biases are being hit by these scandals .. Mingyu, Hyunjin, Soojin. Interesting.

 

[Venomous]

Well that is some...questionable logic. Couldn't confirm the facts but made him apologize anyway...Typical Korea.

 

[ddeonghwaaa]

I just find it really weird as to why all of these statements or scandals are coming out NOW....I don't understand.

 

[PrideInBaek]

So he did bully... I hope the victims find peace

 

[Wingfrost]

I’m disappointed that this is true but I’m glad that he apologized. I hope he’s changed over the years and will continue to grow.

Lastly, we ask that everyone refrain from spreading false rumors and speculative reports, and we will take more careful measures regarding the trainee and artist selection process that we weren’t alert about before.
Thank you.

Oh yikes

Yes I agree, JYP should have been more clear about what he is apologizing for, for me it felt like they were rather focusing on how to save their own image rather than clarifying if Hyunjin really did bullying others or if he didn't get along with the others and if some of the stories were exaggerated...

So he did bully... I hope the victims find peace

from what I have understood is that rather than bullying it might have been that he didn't get along with some of his classmates(?) and apologizing for that (just my opinion from everything I have read). and now allegedly his former teacher has stepped up to clarify that he did not bully anyone but rather was immature with his words and actions like his other classmates. (only akp and kboo has released the translation)

But again just my opinion and since I won't really know the truth I will just stay natural and hope the victim find peace and if they accepted the apology its without the pressure of the company and fans(if now they really were bullied)

Oh yikes

when they only care about clearing their own image rather than their artists, what a typical jyp thing
