Jessi has made headlines after reportedly asking to end her exclusive contract with her agency just one month after signing. 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."

Jessi’s decision to end her contract comes after the controversy surrounding the viral video, where she appeared to ignore a fan being mistreated by her staff. Following the backlash and a police investigation, her move to step away from the agency has left fans and the public wondering about her next steps.

Jessi has not yet shared her side of the story, but many are waiting to hear what she'll do next after this sudden and unexpected turn of events.

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo shared a surprising story from her trainee days!

On January 29, the latest episode of Dex’s Fridge Interview was released on YouTube. During the chat, Dex asked Jisoo if she ever rebelled or broke the rules as a trainee. She confidently replied, “Not at all. The only rebellion I had as a trainee was eating.”

Dex then jokingly imitated her younger self, saying, “I’m perfect, so why are they telling me not to eat? I’m going to eat tteokbokki!”

Jisoo laughed and admitted, “Actually, I was really chubby back then. They kept telling me to lose weight, but I always said, ‘No, I need to eat. I like myself chubby.’”

She even recalled a moment with YG Entertainment’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk:
“The boss told me to lose weight, and I responded like that. He just walked away, thinking, ‘She’s a weird one.’ I literally said, ‘No! I like myself chubby!’”

Jisoo then revealed that after she debuted, she naturally lost weight. She added, “Later, after I debuted and naturally lost weight, he was like, ‘You didn’t lose weight when I told you to, but now that you debuted, you did.’”

Fans are loving Jisoo’s confidence and honesty! Meanwhile, her full interview on Dex’s Fridge Interview is now available on YouTube.
