SM Entertainment released a statement addressing the backlash sparked by NCT‘s Renjun.
The letter is translated below.
Hello, this is SM Entertainment.
On June 20, Renjun exposed a phone number that had called him on a messaging app after he perceived the caller as a Sasaeng. We apologize for the fact that he exposed the number on a public platform and the harm it caused the caller.
After we were alerted that the victim had gone to the police, we spoke with the head investigator, who shared with us what the caller had gone through. We sent our apologies to the investigator and deleted the message at the center of this incident. We will do our best to minimize the damage to the victim, and we ask that you no longer call the person.
Renjun is currently reflecting on his foolish actions, and we also ask forgiveness for our lack of care for our artists. Again, we apologize to the victim and to the many fans who were alarmed by this incident.
Previously, Renjun made headlines after he posted a number who he alleged was a Sasaeng fan. You can read more in the link below.
