Jakobs expressed deep concern and stated they will cooperate with the investigation.
Further statements will be released after confirming the specific facts.
On February 24, reports emerged regarding producers Simon and Chancellor being arrested for drug possession in Japan. Following this development, Jakobs released an official statement. They expressed their deep concern over the arrest of their affiliated producers and assured that they are striving to ascertain the facts. They also emphasized their commitment to actively cooperate with the investigation and promised to provide additional updates promptly.
This incident poses a significant threat to the reputation of the Korean entertainment industry. Given that idols and producers, who are role models for the younger generation, are involved, there is a substantial risk of losing public trust. Jakobs' swift response is viewed as a crucial step toward restoring that trust.
