One Hundred Label, led by CEO Cha Gawon, released a statement saying that they want THE BOYZ to return to the agency and resume full-group activities. They denied any embezzlement and said they would refute the malicious instigation by THE BOYZ's legal representatives.

On the 19th of last month, all members of THE BOYZ, except New, declared the termination of their exclusive contracts. Through their legal representatives, they stated, "We notified the agency of the contract termination on February 10, 2026, due to serious breaches of the contract done by One Hundred Label and the irreparable breakdown of trust. Accordingly, the contract has been legally terminated and is no longer valid." They also raised issues such as unpaid settlements, refusal to provide access to settlement records, and the receipts of advance payments worth of hundreds of billions KRW.

In response, on the 21st, One Hundred Label stated, "We can no longer overlook the distortion of facts and malicious public opinion manipulation by the artists' legal representatives, and thus we are releasing a detailed rebuttal." They claimed that the allegations of violating the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes (Embezzlement) claimed by THE BOYZ's side are false and declared they would take legal action, including filing charges of false accusation.

However, One Hundred Label argued that the legal dispute was initiated by the intentions of the artists' legal representatives, not the artists themselves. They stated that they have already paid the large sums of down payments and settlements, saying, "We support THE BOYZ's full-group activities," and demanded the members to return.

'Boyfriend on Demand' reps: "Removing Jisoo's brother from the credits? An unrelated matter. Production company made a mistake in early March"

The Netflix series 'Boyfriend on Demand' has stated that the appearance of BLACKPINK Jisoo's older brother's name in the ending credits is unrelated to the controversies surrounding him.

On the 21st, a representative from the 'Boyfriend on Demand' production company told Herald Muse, "Shortly after the release in early March, we confirmed there was an error in the actor management credits due to a mistake by the production team," and added, "We immediately corrected it."

Currently, the ending credits list only Jisoo's one-person agency, BLISSOO, under her management team. However, before the correction, other personnel were listed alongside the agency BLISSOO, including the name of her older brother.

The controversy began when it was revealed that a man in his 30s was accused of sexually harassing a female BJ and later was identified as 'the older brother of a famous girl group member.' Additionally, a post allegedly written by his wife claimed 'continuous physical and verbal abuse since registering their marriage' went viral, during which BLACKPINK's Jisoo was mentioned as the related family member.

In response, Jisoo's side stated on the 20th, "The current issues are completely unrelated to the artist and BLISSOO, and much of the information circulating online consists of unverified speculation or clear falsehoods," drawing a clear line.

They also explained, "The artist (Jisoo) became independent early as she started her trainee life at a young age and has lived apart from her family for a long time, making it impossible for her to be aware of or involved in that individual's private life."

However, Jisoo's legal representatives have not released a separate statement regarding additional inquiries about the ending credits.

Hearing this, Donghae said, "You must've been happy back then. I was preparing to debut in a group called 'Smile' at the time, but it got canceled because the World Cup exploded in popularity," expressing regret.

When Brian asked what the group name 'Smile' meant, Eunhyuk replied, "It just meant a bright group," and casually added, "I still don't know what Super Junior means."

Eunhyuk explained, "Right before our debut, we went on a group workshop for two days and one night. We put together a performance and showed it to the staff. After seeing it, (Lee Sooman) said, 'You guys aren't just juniors. You're Super Junior,' that's how it happened."

In response, Brian joked, "That's just like Hwanhee. We were told we had to perform the next day, and suddenly the day before, they told him, 'You're Hwanhee now.' He was so confused," adding to the laughter.

Singer and actress Nana (real name: Im Jinah) appeared in court as a witness in a trial for home-invasion robbery case.

On the 21st, the Namyangju Branch of the Uijeongbu District Court held the third trial for A, a man in his 30s who was detained and indicted on charges of robbery and causing injury. Previously, Nana had filed a notice of non-attendance due to the psychological burden of facing the perpetrator. However, it was not accepted, leading her to stood in court today.

Appearing with her face covered by a hat and mask, Nana said, "I took a medicine before coming here. I'm very nervous. I prepared to control my emotions here." She added, "I plan to speak honestly and truthfully as it is."

Regarding the suspect denying the charges, Nana said, "It's absurd. It's ironic that I even have to be here," and added, "If I speak honestly, a proper judgment will be made," as she headed into the courtroom.

As soon as she entered the courtroom, Nana confronted A, saying, "Is this fun for you? Look at me straight in the eyes." The court asked her to take her seat, noting, "We understand your feelings, but the trial cannot proceed smoothly in such a heated state." Nana responded, "There's no way I can not be emotional."

Recalling the incident, Nana testified, "I heard my mother groaning and the sound of a man breathing. Sensing danger from those sounds, I went there as cautiously as possible. When I saw the scene, I was also in a state of shock. My only thought was to hurry and separate my mother from that man."

She continued, "I never imagined there would be a knife. I just thought I had to take it away. Seeing his actions and the knife in his hand, I believed he could do anything to my mother," emphasizing, "It was instinctive self-defense."

In last November, A broke into Nana's home in Acheon-dong, Guri, Gyeonggi Province and threatened Nana and her mother with a weapon. At the time, Nana and her mother managed to subdue him after a physical struggle before calling the police. It is reported that they sustained injuries requiring 33 days and 31 days of recovery, respectively.

After being detained, A counter-sued Nana for attempted murder and aggravated assault, but the police ruled Nana's actions as self-defense and decided not to forward the case. Nana's side responded, "This is a malicious secondary attack and false claims. We will take all possible civil and criminal legal action and hold him accountable. There will be no settlement," and sued him for false accusation.

Meanwhile, on the 28th of last month, Nana shared an article about her appearance in the court on social media, saying, "Something feels very wrong. But since the law is like this, I have no choice but to follow it. Many people are worried, but don't worry. I will do well." She also warned the perpetrator, saying, "I'll be watching to see how well you act in court."
