DSP Media announced on February 14 through an official position, "The exclusive contract with our artist and group April member Kim Chae Won was terminated on February 11, 2022."

The agency said, "We have made this decision as a result of long discussion with Kim Chae Won. We would like to express our gratitude to the fans who have cared for Kim Chae Won and Kim Chae Won, who have been active under our agency for the past 6 years."

April, the group to which Kim Chae Won belongs, debuted in August 2015 with 'Dreaming'. Since then, April has been receiving a lot of love for its innocent and lovely concept.

However, despite his vigorous activity, Lee Hyun Joo, a former member of the group, was engulfed in a number of large and small rumors starting with the bullying controversy.

Kim Jae Joong couldn’t hold back his tears as he experienced an emotional moment with his father.

On April 4, the KBS 2TV show "New Menu Launching: Pyeon Restaurant" aired a heartwarming episode where Kim Jae Joong, the youngest of nine siblings, threw a special celebration for his parents’ 60th wedding anniversary.

The star took charge of everything—planning, organizing, and hosting the event—as a grand gesture to show his gratitude for everything his parents had done for him and his siblings.

Kim Jae Joong rented a luxurious banquet hall at a five-star hotel for the celebration. He made sure to select food that would please all of his family, including his parents and siblings.

With his large family in attendance, the venue was filled with love and joy. Kim Jae Joong’s nine siblings all bowed deeply to thank their parents for raising them, showing immense respect and love.

As his father saw all of his children gathered in one place, he couldn’t help but express his pride, saying, “Are all these really my children?” But his emotions quickly took a turn as he shared his feelings of regret. “I feel sorry that I couldn’t do better for you, I’m sorry I couldn’t do as much as others did. But I’m so thankful that you all grew up so well,” he said, with tears starting to form in his eyes.

It was the first time Kim Jae Joong had seen his father cry. Overcome with emotion, he said, “I know my father’s life very well, so I couldn’t help but cry too.” The entire family shared in the tears, shouting, “We love you, Dad,” creating an unforgettable moment that moved everyone to tears.

The touching episode aired on April 4 at 8:30 PM, showing viewers the deep love and gratitude Kim Jae Joong and his siblings have for their parents.
