The side of boy band KEYVITUP, which sparked controversy for filming a music video (MV) until dawn, issued an apology.

On September 30, management company Incode stated through a notice on its official homepage, "Regarding the recent KEYVITUP MV filming, we sincerely apologize to residents who may have experienced inconvenience and harm due to noise from filming during hours when they should be enjoying a peaceful night."

The management company added, "We also considered and made efforts in various ways to minimize residents' inconvenience during the filming process. However, as filming continued until late hours, we failed to pay more careful attention to the potential inconvenience that could affect the surrounding environment and residents' daily lives," and stated, "We deeply apologize once again to the residents who experienced this inconvenience."

Furthermore, the management company apologized again, stating, "We are taking this matter seriously. We will visit the residents who experienced inconvenience and earnestly carry out follow-up measures with a responsible attitude."

They added, "Taking this incident as an opportunity, we will pay even more careful attention to the surrounding environment and residents' lives in future filming and production processes," and stated, "We will conduct more thorough pre-checks on the entire filming process with the production team, carefully verify filming hours and on-site noise management, and manage things cautiously so that similar situations do not recur."

Previously, Person A, who resides in Michuhol-gu, Incheon, posted a video on their social media service (SNS) claiming to have suffered noise damage from filming conducted at the nearby Jeomunpo Market in the early hours of that day. The video showed filming taking place under lighting set up in the middle of the market, with music and the host's voice echoing loudly through speakers.

Person A stated, "I have lived in this neighborhood for 10 years and witnessed countless filmings, but this is the first time I have seen them using speakers to film like this past 3 a.m.," and claimed that they did not seek separate filming cooperation or understanding from residents. They reported the incident to 112 (police) and received guidance from the police that filming would end in 10 minutes, but also revealed that the filming team cheered during the ending process.

The filming where Person A complained about noise damage was reportedly for KEYVITUP's new music video.

Meanwhile, KEYVITUP is a boy band produced by Incode, established by singer Kim Jae-joong. They debuted in April and are preparing to come back in November.
