This decision comes amid a controversy surrounding a video showing her walking away as one of her fans was assaulted by her entourage. The incident has sparked a lot of public debate, and Jessi was questioned by the police as part of the investigation.

    On October 18, Jessi's agency, DOD, shared an official statement confirming the news. "After many discussions about Jessi's future activities, and upon her request, we have carefully decided to end our exclusive contract as of October 18, 2024," the agency said, expressing regret over the situation.

    They emphasized that the contract termination was not due to its expiration but was directly requested by Jessi herself. Despite the brief period they worked together, DOD added, "We are grateful to Jessi for her time with us, and we sincerely support her future endeavors."

  • BTS' Jin visits Andong to help wildfire victims, serves meals at Baek Jong Won’s relief center

    BTS member Jin has touched hearts once again with his kind gesture to support those affected by wildfires.

    On April 3, Jin visited Gilan Middle School in Gilan-myeon, Andong, to serve meals to disaster victims and firefighters. His actions brought much-needed comfort to the people in the area.

    Gilan Middle School is where celebrity chef Baek Jong Won, a close friend of Jin, has been running a free meal service through his company, The Born Korea.

    Since March 28, The Born Korea has been providing meals for the wildfire victims, preparing 300 to 700 servings each time to ensure that the affected people and firefighters receive warm food.

    Jin quietly made his way to Andong, a region that suffered extensive damage from the wildfire, to lend a helping hand.

    Big Hit Music, Jin’s agency, shared, “Jin wanted to provide even a small amount of help to those affected by the wildfires, which is why he decided to participate in this volunteer activity.”

    This heartwarming gesture follows BTS's large donations for wildfire recovery efforts. Jungkook donated a whopping 1 billion KRW, while V gave 200 million KRW, and RM, J-Hope, and Suga each contributed 100 million KRW to aid in the recovery.
