JYP takes a stand after calls for Dowoon to leave the band

After sharing photos in the army, JYP Entertainment publishes a statement about calls for drummer Dowoon to be removed from the band DAY6

Recently, the drummer of the band DAY6, Dowoonbecame involved in a controversy after sharing on his social networks some videos in which he played the drums while wearing a military uniform, generating negative reactions from some fans due to the recent political scenario in South Korea, in addition to articles in the Korean press.

Interpreting it as something insensitive and bad for the band’s image, some fan statements call for the drummer to leave the group, due to the disappointment they felt when seeing the posts, while there are several protests across the country in favor of democracy and rejecting the Korean army’s position in the last political episode, in which the president Yoon Suk Yeolimposed martial law in the country.

One of the articles that circulated in Korean media about the group member said:

Dowoon’s video featuring him wearing a military uniform addresses a highly sensitive topic in the current climate, reflecting a lack of responsibility as a public figure. Recording content wearing a military uniform in the current situation could be seen as an act that betrays the trust of fans and the public,” the statement read.

On the other hand, internet users saw these requests as exaggerated, coming out in defense of the artist and his stay at DAY6.

The agency claims that much of the information released about Dowoon were imprecise, in addition to emphasizing the intention to approach the problem with determination.

Even after this warning, if such actions – such as spreading false information, amplifying rumors or reproducing them without basis – continue to harm the honor and dignity of our artists, we will respond with strict legal action.

We are fully committed to protecting our artists and reiterate that we will take all available legal action without any leniency or compromise.

We sincerely thank you for always loving and supporting DAY6.
