JYP Entertainment has released a statement to address school bullying accusations made against GOT7’s Youngjae.
On October 20, someone posted on an online community and claimed that they had been a victim of school violence perpetrated by Youngjae. The author of the post stated that they attended Mokpo Technical High School with Youngjae and added that they had intellectual disability and hearing loss. According to the author, Youngjae had taken taken money and valuables from them and hit them for no reason.
A day after the post was uploaded, JYP Entertainment released a statement. Read it below:
"Regarding the controversy surrounding JYP Entertainment artist Youngjae, we have confirmed with Youngjae that he and his classmate once had a quarrel that led to a physical fight and that they were unable to reconcile afterwards and stayed on bad terms. He told us that all other claims made by the post’s author are false.
The author of the post stated that they had sent their assertions to the agency via email, but we have not yet received any email or other form of contact from them.
We have reached out to the author to verify the exact details of the truth, but we have not been able to receive a response yet.
Therefore, we will take action based on principle by verifying the truth more precisely and preparing appropriate measures accordingly."

1. I feel like they will meet soon and we will discover the truth.
2. From what I got from the comments:
Youngjae fought with a student in school ----- true
The person Youngjae fought with is the one who wrote the post ---- don't know
Youngjae transferred to Seoul in his 1st year in October and debuted in his 3rd year ---- true
Youngjae tormented that person during his 2nd~3rd year ---- impossible
3. As expected, JYP lives up to their reputationㅋㅋㅋㅋ they always take action
4. I hate people who mistreat disabled people the most but this has the possibility of being false accusations so I wish that these are just rumors. I'm already mad having the thought of people possibly defending someone like that so I really hope that they can clarify clearly. If he never harassed the disabled, say that he didn't, if he did, say that he did. Please don't give me something ambiguous
5. As expected, his fans are shielding this
6. Why does this clarification sound so halfhearted?
7. Looks like JYP gave a feedback based on whatever Youngjae told them
8. If he was never violent, please sue that OP and end this cleanly
9. But he came to Seoul in his 2nd-3rd year of high school no? Then, it's impossible that he was with the victim during those years..... JYP really sucks at giving feedbackㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
10. JYP's feedback is f*cking ambiguous... if they were gonna write it like that, might as well not say anything. They are writing this as if they are trying to hide something
[theqoo] INFORMANT WHO WROTE ABOUT GOT7 YOUNGJAE'S SCHOOL VIOLENCE RUMORS AND WHO DELETED THEIR POST AFTER MEETING WITH JYP TODAY
"The last post made by the person who claimed that Got7 Youngjae was violent in school (they wrote the post and then deleted it and left)"
"Hello.
I went to JYP and told the truth in a conference room
They will investigate, gather the evidence and find the truth
I'm sorry I couldn't show you the evidence."
Looking at the post, it seems like even JYP found their claims ridiculous
"I went to JYP today (proof)"
"I went to JYP and told the truth in a conference room
They will investigate, gather the evidence and find the truth"
They wrote their last post like that
The first post written by the informant was deleted
original post: here
1. The only truth here is that JYP is f*cking bad at doing their work
2. I don't understand why these rumors blew up...ㅠ
3. They claimed in their first post that Yougnjae was like that after he transferred schoolㅋㅋㅋㅋ ridiculous
4. In the first post, they wrote "we were in the same class in our 2nd and 3rd year" and just reading that passage, it was impossible that the rumors would be true. These rumors could've stopped earlier so I really don't understand how they've gotten so big....ㅜㅜㅠ
5. Everything aside, I can acknowledge the fact that JYP has a skill of making everything bigger.. sigh..
6. Aido my brainㅋㅋ Youngjae-yah, find strength..... you're having it hard because of that sucky company
7. JYP, do your work properly
8. His company is even more f*cked up than the informant ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
9. Yougnjae is pitiful and it's my first time realizing how bad JYP was at work;;;
10. Does JYP even think about their artists?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ah I hate it
