Mainit na issue ngayon sa Korean showbiz ang pag-alis ni Wonho sa rising boyband na Monsta X kung saan ay isa siya sa 7 miyembro.

Last Oct. 31 (Thursday) ay bigla na lang inanunsiyo ng management niya na Starship Entertainment na aalis na nga si Wonho sa grupo at ito raw ang napagkasunduan nila.

Halos kasabay din nito ay ang sariling announcement din ni Wonho kasama ang open letter para sa kanyang mga fans.

Narito ang nilalaman ng open letter ng singer:

“This is Wonho. First, I would like to apologize for not being able to keep the promise that I would only provide good memories to our fans and for causing them pain.

“Furthermore, I apologize for causing concern to many people due to my personal issues.

“I have received undeserving blessings and love while promoting as a MONSTA X member. I sincerely thank you for making precious memories for me. To the members who worked hard with me and stayed with me, I would like to tell them that I’m thankful and that I love them. [I would also like to show them] my apologetic heart.

“There was a time when I was immature and have made big and small mistakes, but after becoming a trainee and making my debut, I stayed on track and worked hard to avoid being ashamed of myself.

“I am announcing that I am leaving MONSTA X today. I am apologetic for causing harm to the members due to the unfortunate issues related to me.

“More than anything, I am sorry for disappointing my fans who believed in me. I have reached this decision after seeing many people having a hard time because of me.

“In addition to our members, I once again sincerely bow my head in apology to the fans who have believed in me and supported me.

“Please give strength to MONSTA X. The members have nothing to do with me. I carefully ask that you at least give support and encouragement to the members. They are people who are too good to stop and get hurt like this because of someone like me.

“I am so thankful and apologetic to the staff, members, and lastly our fans who have allowed me to enjoy such happiness until this point.”

Ang tinutukoy ni Wonho na mga issues tung­kol sa kanya ay ang mga alegasyon ng former idol trainee na si Han Seo Hee at aktres na si Jung Da Eun na dating roommate ni Wonho.

Ayon umano kay Jung Da Eun ay ninakawan siya ni Wonho ng mga gamit at ibinenta nito. Bukod dito, inutangan daw siya ng singer ng pera at hindi binayaran.

May inilabas ding balita ang Dispatch na gumamit daw ng marijuana si Wonho in 2013.

Labis na ikinalungkot ito ng mga fans ni Wonho at ng Monsta X at balitang nagpunta pa ang Monbebe (tawag sa mga fans ng Monsta X) sa harap ng opisina ng Starship Entertainment at naglagay ng sticky notes sa harap at gilid ng building. Karamihan sa mga mensahe ay mga encouraging words para sa grupo at hinihiling na ibalik si Wonho sa grupo.

At kahit dito sa Pilipinas ay nag-trending sa Twitter ang hashtag na #fightforWonho at #believeinWonho.

Samantala, kinabukasan (Nov. 1) ay sinagot naman ng Starship Entertainment ang akusasyon kay Wonho ng paggamit ng marijuana in 2013.

“Hello, this is Starship Entertainment.

“Regarding the report released on [November] 1, Wonho did get his luggage and body examined at the airport after returning from the concert in Germany in September 2019, but it was a simple process, and we were informed that it is part of the customs inspection.

“We were not notified separately of an investigation, and we were not aware at all of Wonho being under investigation, of the suspicions of marijuana use in 2013, and that an investigation is undergoing.

“In relation with this case, the judgment has been made that we can no longer maintain our contract with Wonho and terminated our contract with Wonho as of November 1, 2019.

“We feel heavy responsibility for causing trouble to many people due to the current situation, and we will work to fulfill our responsibility until the end so that he can diligently participate in the investigation.

“We once again apologize to the fans who sincerely cherish MONSTA X. We apologize,” ang pahayag ng Starship Entertainment.
