Actress Kim Yoo Jung's agency has released an official statement related to a recent controversy concerning Jung's attitude at the promotion of her upcoming movie "Because I Love You."
The statement reads that they are aware of the "problematic behavior" of Kim Yoo Jung at the recent official event that went viral online.
At the promotion of "Because I Love You," Cha Tae Hyun, Kim Yoo Jung and other actors of the movie stood on stage and interacted with the press and fans. However, in a report by allkpop, Kim Yoo Jung is seen playing with her nails and leaning on one leg. People on the internet termed this as "lack of professionalism." "At first, I thought it was no big deal but if she's on stage, she has to show perfection because that's her job," wrote a netizen.
However, Kim Yoo Jung is reflecting on the controversy and her attitude. According to the statement, she is apologetic for letting down her fans at the event.
The agency has also apologized on her behalf.
"We're aware of the problematic behavior of her at an official event that's spreading online. Kim Yoo Jung herself is deeply reflecting on her attitude and the controversy, and she's apologetic for disappointing fans, who've always trusted her. She plans to do her best to prevent something like this from happening again. We apologize and bow our heads for this issue causing worry to so many," reads the official statement by Sidus HQ (obtained via allkpop).
