Recently, fans of ‘Jannabi’ posted protestive statements after learning that former member Yoo Yong Hyun was working as a staff member of ‘Jannabi’ and had been working with the group since he left in 2019. protested and the ‘Jannabi’ side remained silent.
When the fact that Yoo Yeon-hyun had worked with ‘Jannabi’ as a sound engineer for five years was revealed, the ‘Jannabi’ side started to apologise for the delay.
The ‘Jannabi’ side said "Yoo Yeon-hyun is currently cooperating as a sound engineer at performance sites and band ensembles. We had no intention of covering this up from the beginning, but there was an ongoing matter related to Yoo Yeon-hyun's past problems, so we thought we would give details after that matter was resolved", and said that they would take legal action if false facts were spread.
Fans reacted angrily to the apology and the ‘Jannabi’ side issued a second apology. The ‘Jannabi’ side stated "peponi.music has decided not to go further with the matter of asking Yoo Yeon-hyun for sound support. The process of communicating this to the fans was not appropriate in the course of this matter. We also disappointed a lot of fans by making the wrong decision and handling the situation inadequately."
Choi Jung Hoon apologised for trying to invite him as a staff member in an incorrect process, but denied allegations that he had participated in the songwriting of ‘Jannabi’.
However, it was a disappointing response from fans. The ‘Jannabi’ side admitted the fact of working with Yoo Yong-hyun and forcibly removed some fans who posted protestive statements from the fan café.
Earlier, in May 2019, ‘Jannabi’ admitted the fact of bullying by Yoo Yong Hyun and withdrew him from the group. At the time, the ‘Jannabi’ side said, "We confirmed the facts directly with the person in question in relation to the bullying row and Yoo Yong Hyun admitted his mistake. Currently, he deeply regrets and reflects on the mistake and has decided to take full responsibility and suspend his activities. He said that he will withdraw himself from ‘Jannabi’ and have a time of self-restraint," and that he will sincerely apologise and refrain from doing so himself.
However, unlike the apology, everyone was angered by his belated apology and inadequate treatment of his fans when it was revealed that he had been working as a staff member of ‘Jannabi’. ‘Jannabi’ received a frosty reception.
