FINALLY ay nag-release na rin ng statement si Seungri of Big Bang tungkol sa controversy ng Burning Sun Club kung saan ay na-drag ang kanyang pangalan dahil isa siya sa mga executives na noong una’y inakala pa ngang siya ang nagmamay-ari.

Sa kanyang Instagram post last Feb. 2, mahabang ipinaliwanag ni Seungri ang kanyang panig.

“Hello. This is Seungri.

“I first want to bow my head and sincerely apologize to everyone who felt uncomfortable or was worried due to the recent incident and controversy related to me.

“Because of this incident, the last few days have been like an unbearable nightmare, and I was flustered as to where and how I should begin talking about this.

“I am sorry for my delayed official statement and apology. I was dissuaded by people around me that a hasty explanation may cause bigger misunderstandings during a time when uncertain information was already snowballing,” ang simula ng statement ni Seungri.

Kasunod nito ay nilinaw niyang wala siya nang mangyari ang insidente kung saan ay nakita nga sa video na nag-viral na may isang babaeng hinihila ng isang security guard palabas ng club.

“I was not at the scene when the assault incident that started this controversy occurred. I first learned about the incident a few days later through a staff member and only initially heard that there was assault on both sides between a customer and an employee, and that it was under police investigation.

“Due to the nature of the place of business, disputes and fights occur often, so I hoped that this would also be resolved peacefully without a big problem.

“Later on, I saw the clip of the incident for the first time through the media, and I was also very shocked. Violence cannot be justified under any circumstance, and I sincerely apologize to the victim who was injured due to this incident. I hope that your mental and physical injuries will heal as soon as possible,” paliwanag ng singer.

Ipinaliwanag din ni Seungri kung ano ang involvement niya sa Burning Sun.

“I first became involved with the club when BIGBANG briefly halted promotions and I began solo promotions. Using the time outside of my solo promotions, I began with the innocent mindset of wanting to try working as a DJ, which is something I had wanted to do, at a place where I could freely play music at any time.

“Just in time, I got a good opportunity to become the executive director in charge of promotions at a club. Since I’m a celebrity, I was in charge of publicly promoting the club.

“Operating and managing the club were not my roles, and I am reflecting and deeply apologize for not showing myself taking responsibility from the beginning of the incident, as I was not involved in these roles from the start,” pahayag ni Seungri.

Seungri also address­ed the issue of drugs. May mga aku­sasyon kasing pina­gagamit daw ng drugs ang mga babae sa Burning Sun Club. At dahil involved siya sa club, natural, may mga akusasyon din na baka gumagamit siya ng droga.

“The issue that began with an assault case is now being covered with reports about drugs. I have not seen or heard anything related to this, so I’ll actively cooperate with investigations and hope that strict punishment will be carried out if a crime is revealed through the investigation. I’ll also take full responsibility if there is something I need to be responsible for as an executive director at the time.

“While going through this incident, I learned and realized a lot once more about the responsibility and attitude of a celebrity. I apologize once again to everyone for causing concern through this incident, and will work hard to become more mature and considerate.

“Respectfully, Seungri, Lee Seung Hyun,” ang pagtatapos ni Seungri.

Bago ito, matatandaang nag-release na rin ng statement ang CEO ng YG Entertainment label ni Seungri na si Yang Hyun Suk na inilabas na namin dito sa K-Buzz.

Sinabi ni Yang Hyun Suk na naka­takda nang mag-resign si Seungri sa lahat ng executive positions ng kanyang mga negosyo in preparation for his upcoming military enlistment.

Nilinaw din ng CEO ng YGE ang panga­lan ni Seungri tungkol sa issue ng droga at aniya ay nagpa-drug test ang singer at negatibo ang resulta nito.
