Hello, this is Brand New Music.

First of all, we would like to apologize for the bad news we are bringing to the fans.

We would like to inform everyone about our artist, Lim Youngmin’s, drunk driving and the subsequent suspension of his activities.

Currently, Lim Youngmin is deeply reflecting on himself, and if there are any further investigations, he will faithfully comply with the police investigation.
