[UPDATE 2] "Media makes you become a hot issue, and also makes you an idiot in a second. I didn’t show you anything stimulating, so now there’s shaming going on.. It’s the same. People say, ‘He’s the same. In the end it’s for money’. I won’t pay attention to those kind of statements.. Even when I was young, I didn’t get slapped by my father..“.
”I was a student who started this because I liked music.. But now the level is that I’m going on, shuting up about getting slapped and keeping it inside.. Everyone, help me stay quiet.. I beg you.. I’m sorry. Now, I call a break to this war and I’ll see you next time.. I thank you all sincerely again.“
[UPDATE 3] ”Yes, that’s right. I’ll slam the nail into your hearts. Because I was a man, because I was a leader, as the representative of ZE:A, I got slapped by Star Empire’s President Shin Joo Hak. It wasn’t just once or twice. This kind of strong, stimulating things… I’m human, too, so if I just wanted money, I would have said this from the beginning. Sigh………..“
”Also… Don’t curse out the members.. They aren’t at fault, and they’re good kids who do everything they’re told to.. Curse me and curse President Shin Joo Hak. Think again about who did this for who and what.. Please.. If I was at fault, I’ll receive the punishment.“
”Sorry. And thank you..“
[UPDATE 4] Lee Hoo has deleted most of the above tweets detailing the results of his negotiations.
[UPDATE 5] "Hello, this is ZE:A’s Moon Jun Young. Firstly, I’m sorry for causing trouble today. I just finished talking with the President, and I am very thankful that my feelings were heard. I also express my thanks to the President, who listened to my sincere words and cared for them.”
“…I just wanted to get this out in the open; the President getting scolded by the fans and the public. But after the deed is done, I feel… smaller. Look here, everyone… this is just a household spat between myself and the President. Other agencies might be even worse… I don’t like that our President is the only one left behind.”
“The parts that I’ve misunderstood.. parts that I’ve become emotional.. President Shin Joo Hak drew blood because all of the other companies are the same. Since everyone avoids the issue. If they think this is the world and they don’t have to worry about tomorrow, they will just move to the sidelines and watch the fight. I’m sure there are many people who flinch at what I’ve said. Now that I’ve gotten my company on my side..”
“I will keep fighting, if only for other celebrities. If you’re a male agency owner, I think you should be on the same side and protect those you need to. I, and ZE:A, will now protect Star Empire and President Shin Joo Hak. I especially love you all, our ZE:As.”
“Our President told me to be patient.. that’s why I’m not divulging any data. Told me to leave the other houses alone.. he cried, and he’s a person too, and he’s a man so that’s probably why he told me that. Now when we’re all on the same side, we… sigh… I’ll be patient. Since our President apologized as the representative.
"Our President, he today really.. he protected us and listened to me. Only we will know what is above this picture. We all cried a lot today and learned that if we speak our true feelings, things will work out. We saw the tears..”
