Rapper E-Sung, who was transferred to court on charges of forced indecency, has issued a direct statement denying all allegations in their entirety.

On the 23rd, Isense stated through a personal account that "the physical contact in question was conducted with mutual consent and in a natural atmosphere," adding, "We clearly state that there was no coercion, assault, or intimidation, nor did we attempt any improper contact against the other party's will."

Isen also provided specific details regarding the circumstances at the time. He stated, "In August last year, I visited a club in Itaewon with acquaintances." He added, "At the party, I exchanged greetings with several people I had never met before and naturally greeted the accuser and their companions as well. Afterward, we shared a toast and danced together. During this process, we danced and played while standing close to one another. We also exchanged phone numbers." He further explained, "About an hour after arriving at the club, I returned home alone by taxi. Since then, I have had no contact or interaction with the accuser."

Is also reported the circumstances under which the lawsuit was filed. He stated, "In December last year, the accuser suddenly posted about me on their Instagram and demanded an apology for alleged forced molestation at my contact number. Since I had no intention of apologizing for matters that were not true, I consistently remained silent. Several months later, the accuser filed a lawsuit, and we are now approaching a formal trial in September this year," he explained.

In addition, Isense stated that it would diligently participate in the judicial proceedings to reveal the objective truth and informed that legal measures could be taken under civil and criminal law regarding false and malicious posts or comments related to the matter, while also requesting that speculative articles not be written.

Earlier that day, Dispatch reported that Lee Sen received a summary court order imposing a fine of 5 million won on charges of sexual assault. According to the report, Lee Sen has contested the summary court order and requested a formal trial, with plans to challenge the allegations in court this September.

Meanwhile, Iseng debuted in 2003 as the hip-hop duo Supreme Team and received great love with songs such as "Ttaeng Ttaeng Ttaeng" and "Geuttaen Geuttaen Geuttaen." He is currently continuing his activities as a solo artist.

Hello, this is Essence.

Regarding the criminal case of forced molestation reported today, I would like to state my position.

I visited a club in Itaewon last August while I was with friends.

I exchanged greetings with several people I met for the first time at the party, and also greeted the accuser and their group.

After that, they naturally raised their glasses for a toast and danced as well.

In the process, they played by dancing while their bodies were close together.

We exchanged phone numbers with each other.

After spending some time like that

About an hour after arriving at the club, I took a taxi home alone.

Since then, I have had no contact or communication with the complainant.

However, last December, the accuser's side suddenly began talking about me on the accuser's Instagram.

I requested an apology for the alleged sexual assault through my contact number.

I consistently remained silent as I had no intention of apologizing for matters that were entirely untrue.

Several months later, the complainant filed a criminal complaint, and formal court proceedings are set to begin this September.

We clearly state that the physical contact in question was conducted with mutual consent and in a natural atmosphere, without any force, assault, or coercion, and that we have never attempted any improper contact against the other party's will.

At that time, the club was filled with acquaintances who knew me and people who recognized me.

The atmosphere was lively and natural, with people dancing and mingling freely.

I can never agree with the claim that I committed forced molestation by disregarding someone's refusal.

We will diligently participate in the subsequent court proceedings to reveal the objective truth. We wish to inform you that legal measures may be taken under both civil and criminal law regarding any related false or malicious posts or comments, and we kindly request that no speculative articles be published.
