ENHYPEN's JAY apologizes for calling Korean history a 'short story'
has issued an official apology for his remarks about Korea's history, after a discussing the topic during a live broadcast earlier this week. "I think Korean history is really interesting.""I'm more interested in world history. I've already learned a fair amount of Korean history in school.""History is a subject I'm pretty into, so for me, I might say that there's not a lot of material in Korean history.
Soon after the live broadcast on January 11, Jay took to ENHYPEN's official Weverse to post a letter of apology after receiving severe criticism for his remarks. He wrote:After today's Weverse Live, I was totally shocked by everyone's responses. Regardless of the reason, I want to genuinely apologize for causing discomfort in the hearts of ENGENEs.
I spoke too carelessly about such an important topic as Korean history, based solely on my personal impression.Once again, this was a time for me to realize how much more I have to learn. I never intended to speak lightly of our country's proud history, but I see now that my comments could very well have come across that way, and that is my mistake. I apologize.I'm always learning so much from you all.Jay, known to have dual citizenship in South Korea and the U.S, completed much of his primary education in Korea.
