The Boyz member Young-hoon has shared his feelings amid a dispute with his agency over his exclusive contract.

On the morning of the 20th, a press conference for TV Chosun's new variety program "Survival King 2" was held at the TV Chosun studio in Gasan-dong, Geumcheon-gu, Seoul. Lee Seung-hoon, CP; Yoon Jong-ho, PD; Kim Jong-kook; Kim Byung-man; Yuk Jun-seo; and The Boyz's Young-hoon attended.

"Survival King 2" is a program where top survival experts from four Asian countries traverse jungles, deserts, and cities to complete extreme survival missions, ultimately selecting Asia's strongest survival team.

Currently, The Boyz's Young-hoon is in a dispute with his agency, One Hundred Label, over his exclusive contract. In February, nine members of The Boyz (Young-hoon, Ju-yeon, Hwan-wook, Seon-woo, Q, Sang-yeon, Kevin, Jacob, and Eric), excluding member New, notified One Hundred Label of their intent to terminate their contracts. Recently, MC Mong sparked controversy by revealing the contract payment amount paid when The Boyz were signed during a live broadcast.

When the press team raised the agency issue during the interview, Young-hoon appeared flustered, asking, "Are you going to ask that far?" The host then drew a line on agency-related questions, stating, "Today, we decided to discuss 'Survival King 2.' We ask for your understanding."

However, even after no further questions about the agency were asked, Young-hoon voluntarily brought up the issue, saying, "I was greatly overwhelmed and frustrated due to the company's problems."

He continued, "When I had many worries about whether I could continue my activities and whether I would be able to see the fans, I met the PD. He suggested we work together, and I thought, 'I can show myself to many people.' I wanted to express my gratitude for being invited during this situation."

Meanwhile, "Survival King 2" will premiere at 10 p.m. today.
