In response to allegations of "contract breach" and "violation of participant obligations," 25th Generation Yeongja has issued a statement.

On the 22nd, 25th Generation Yeongja, a participant in SBS Plus and ENA's dating variety program "I Am Solo, Then Love Continues" (hereinafter "NaSolSaGye"), posted a long message on her social media.

Yeongja stated, "Had I been able to participate in the live broadcast, I would have wanted to share my reflections up to this point, especially regarding the matter of the creator agency, with caution. I received contact from a creator-related agency in February this year, and after deep contemplation and discussion, I felt it was a good opportunity for me, who had been working as an illustrator, so I proceeded with the contract on March 1."

Regarding the agency contract, she explained, "The related content became known before the broadcast ended, faster than expected, and as a result, it may have appeared to viewers that the sincerity of the broadcast was in doubt. I take this situation very seriously. Moving forward, I will think and act with greater caution."

She also addressed various misunderstandings and speculations. Yeongja said, "My name change was applied for last November and has no connection whatsoever with the company. Neither I nor the company side conducted any viral marketing. I am not someone with such significant influence," drawing a clear line against rumors of viral promotion.

She further added, "I have never engaged in hunting, nor do I smoke. My family does not participate in community activities; in fact, we are careful around others to avoid causing harm to me."

She concluded, "I will reflect on my shortcomings and strive to become a better person."

Meanwhile, Yeongja became the final couple with 20th Generation Yeongsik on "NaSolSaGye," but they did not develop into a real romantic relationship.

In particular, her absence from the live broadcast held with all "NaSolSaGye" participants raised curiosity. The production team clarified her reason for not attending the live broadcast, stating, "25th Generation Yeongja was restricted from participating in the live broadcast due to contract breach and violation of participant obligations."

◆ Full text of 25th Generation Yeongja's statement below.

Hello, I am 25th Generation Yeongja.

The long-running "Pochon SaGye" has finally come to an end.

Although I was unable to participate in the Solo Reaction and live broadcast, I believe this was a time that left me with experiences and lessons beyond my worth.

Had I been able to participate in the live broadcast, I would have wanted to share my reflections up to this point, especially regarding the matter of the creator agency, with caution.

I received contact from a creator-related agency in February this year, and after deep contemplation and discussion, I felt it was a good opportunity for me, who had been working as an illustrator, so I proceeded with the contract on March 1.

Separate from the broadcast, I thought of this as a continuation of my personal activities to continue my illustration work and content creation. I planned to slowly share content featuring my work after the broadcast ended, but the related content became known before the broadcast ended, faster than expected, and as a result, it may have appeared to viewers that the sincerity of the broadcast was in doubt. I take this situation very seriously.

Moving forward, I will think and act with greater caution.

Through this incident, many misunderstandings and speculations arose, and I wanted to address a few of them directly.

1. My name change was applied for last November and has no connection whatsoever with the company.

2. Neither I nor the company side conducted any viral marketing. I am not someone with such significant influence.

The image of me holding the NH Card was taken while I was attempting to make a payment and has no connection whatsoever to whether I have a credit card.

3. Regarding the guesthouse mentioned on the broadcast, there seems to be some misunderstanding. I was responsible for the operation and management of three guesthouses, but I held no equity. My external title was "owner," but it was not a solo operation. I believe I may have been imprecise in my wording to make it easier to explain on the broadcast.

4. Furthermore, contrary to what some have claimed, it was not a "party guesthouse" for meeting the opposite sex, and I do not reside in or participate in that space.

5. I have never engaged in hunting, nor do I smoke.

6. My family does not participate in community activities; in fact, we are careful around others to avoid causing harm to me.

7. The stories about my father are also not true. My father is a proud person who has lived diligently for his family more than anyone else.

Through this incident, I realized that even if I believe I have lived honestly, misunderstandings can arise from how I appear or speak.

I will reflect on my shortcomings and strive to become a better person.
