They explained, "Baekhyun and our staff were not aware that e-cigarettes are banned in Macau. During a meal with staff after the Macau concert, the conversation was lively, and he used an e-cigarette without realizing the rules."

The statement continued, "Baekhyun deeply regrets letting down many fans with his careless behavior. Both Baekhyun and the agency promise to be more careful in the future to avoid such incidents and ensure we do not disappoint fans again."

Earlier in the day, a video of Baekhyun smoking indoors at what seemed to be a restaurant circulated online, leading to widespread controversy.
