JYPE stated, "We sincerely apologize for our artist Kim Min Jun (Jun.K) driving under the influence of alcohol. He himself is deeply reflecting on his actions, and from now on, he'll be ceasing all promotions... As a countermeasure to DUIs by entertainers, the company has paid for a designated full-time substitute driver for all artists since 2014 as well as regular education against drunk driving. Despite this, an incident like this has occurred, and we'll be taking responsibility as well as considering more effective preventative measures. We apologize deeply once again."
