JAKARTA - Today, May 12, Kim Jung Hyun's representative released an official statement that the actor officially parted ways with the O&Entertainment agency after the expiry of his contract.

"Since he (Kim Jung Hyun) disagreed with the duration of the contract, Kim Jung Hyun and his brother who is his legal representative were silent so as not to generate a fuss amid many unexposed issues," reads the statement reported from Soompi.

They are attempting to complete a contract with the agency and have no intention of renewing,

"We remain silent about all the things that have happened until now because Kim Jung Hyun felt guilty for being irresponsible as an actor by stepping down from the production of time and he believes apologizing is the first thing he should do."

But over time, he saw his agency start making false information. In the same statement, Kim Jung Hyun's side also straightened out the attitude regarding her withdrawal from the drama Time in 2018.

"Even before she joined the production of time, Kim Jung Hyun showed health and on the day of the press conference, she vomited and was in bad shape."

Unfortunately his agency continues to encourage him to keep on schedule. After running a deficit, they began to bring Kim Jung Hyun's contract issue to the public.

In 2018, Kim Jung Hyun received criticism for her attitude during a Time press conference. Then a rumor mentioned his attitude was set by a personal relationship with actress Seo Ye Ji.

On the same day, YTN Star media found reports of Kim Jung Hyun's condition from 2019 to 2021 showing him with panic disorder, sleep disorder, and several depressive episodes.

O&Entertainment responded to the statement by saying, "We didn't hear anything from Kim Jung Hyun at the time. If (his illness) was serious, we wouldn't have made him take the Time project."
