Ilhoon Leaves BtoB

[LostInTheDream]

After his recent drug scandal it has been confirmed by Cube Entertainment that Ilhoon has left BtoB.
Here is the official statement:

"First, we would like to bow our heads in apology for causing concerns with issues involving our label's artist Jung Ilhoon.
Jung Ilhoon is currently feeling the heavy burden of his actions which broke the trust of his fans and caused significant disappointment. The agency also recognized the severity of this issue at hand, and after a serious discussion, we have decided to respect the wishes of the individual who has chosen to leave his group as not to inflict further damage.
Once again, the agency recognizes the severe weight of the current situation, and we promise to do our best so that Ilhoon can participate in his ongoing investigation diligently.
From here on, BTOB will continue promoting as 6-members, and we will also provide our best efforts and aid so that BTOB can continue to show a mature image on stage.
Once again, we apologize sincerely to fans who love and cheer on BTOB."

Ilhoon is still under investigation by the police for drug possession/purchase/usage.
All the best to him and the remaining members of BtoB.
This week is really not a good one for Cube Entertainment.
First CLC and Elkie, and now Ilhoon and BtoB!

It's broke my heart since I stan him in BTOB

How could he do this for me...?!

Rip I really liked him in Btob, it's gonna be strange without him there.

Maybe unpopular opinion but I feel like the use of marijuana and drugs shouldn't be as big of a deal it is, nobody's life and career should be ruined just because of that. As long as he keeps it out of the public eye intentionally and doesn't promote it, and even mention if he does it, there's no reason to care that much.

I used to like him too but apparently, marijuana usage in Korea is illegal. It's a big deal in this case for Ilhoon because taking drugs has been a habit for the idol though. I remembered coming across an article that talks about how Ilhoon bought drugs from a third person and paid for his drugs through virtual currency. That's why the Koreans are furious about it. Because he knew the consequences but still went for it for years

Cube losing artists is nothing new but with Ilhoon's case considering the laws in South Korea, it was kind of expected.

I'm done. I'm just... Done.

No fan would want him to leave the group, no. This wasn't the work of fans.
