This is SM Entertainment.
We recently confirmed that Taeil has been implicated in a criminal case relating to sexual offences.
After reviewing the situation, we recognized that the issue is very serious and decided that Taeil will no longer be able to continue the team’s activities. We discussed the matter with Taeil and decided that he will be removed from the group.
Currently, Taeil is cooperating fully with the police investigation. We will share further statements as the investigation progresses.
We deeply apologize for the controversy caused by our artist.
