On the 20th, Jetsun posted on his Instagram, “I’m sorry that I couldn’t understand Mr. A’s position and I’m sorry for showing his lack as a teacher.” I want to get it right,” he said.

He said, “Before we left, we agreed on what to do while staying in the area. I decided to take on the role of interpreting and making reservations in general, and the friend was going to take on the housework, such as laundry. He said, “I didn’t just receive a full body massage, but I also did it. I did it alternately, I didn’t force it to happen. It’s not true that I forcibly cut my hair because I was bored.”

Jetsun continued, “It is a clear lie that I had to clean up my hair in the bathroom and then remove it. I was in a situation with special hair at the time, so my hair did not fall out. “(My friend’s house in Jamaica) was different from the dorm, and I was able to have a private space. So I knew through the article that the friend was in a dangerous situation. I’m sorry I must have been very scared, but I’m sorry for leaving you alone.” I want to say yes,” he added.

After Jetsun released its statement, fans’ supportive comments followed, along with exposing comments from fellow dancers. One dancer B commented, “Stop lying. You cut the bangs of other students too. With students holding their arms…” and “Why did you do that? When a netizen asked if there was a video of the bangs cut off, Mr. B said, “Yes. The person who suffered the incident is actively working as a dancer, so he is concerned about revealing his face and personal information. “, he explained.

In addition, another dancer, C, said, “You are trying to cover the sky with your palm. Why did the 10 or so students you learned from you 7 or 8 years ago, including me, run away except for one?” He pointed out, “To say that you are only making excuses like this even after causing so much material injury and damage. You haven’t changed at all.”

In addition, immediately after the disclosure was posted, dancers active in the industry posted the disclosure on their personal SNS or sent a message of support to Mr. A, such as indirectly mentioning it.

Meanwhile, Jetsun has closed the comment window for the position he has posted. The 500 or so comments that were posted after the announcement was posted are currently unavailable.
