SHINee’s Key has spoken out about the controversy surrounding his association with “Nurse A.”<\/p>\n

On the 17th, Key’s agency, SM Entertainment, issued a statement, “We sincerely apologize for the delayed response as we needed time to communicate with various parties concerning overseas tour schedules and activities.”<\/p>\n

SM Entertainment further explained, “Key first met Ms. Lee at a hospital in Gangnam, where he went on a friend’s recommendation, believing she was a doctor. Recently, upon learning about her medical license controversy, Key was shocked to discover that she is not a doctor. Key is deeply reflecting on his ignorance regarding the situation.”<\/p>\n

The agency also stated, “Recognizing the seriousness of the issue, Key has decided to step down from his current schedules and programs.”<\/p>\n

Consequently, Key will be leaving his regular spots on the variety shows “Home Alone” and “Amazing Saturday.”<\/p>\n

Full statement from SM Entertainment is below.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hello, this is SM Entertainment.<\/p>\n

We would like to address the issue concerning our artist Key.<\/p>\n

We sincerely apologize for the delay in expressing our position, as we needed time to communicate with various parties regarding overseas tour schedules and activities.<\/p>\n

Key first met Ms. Lee at a hospital in Gangnam, which he visited on a friend\u2019s recommendation.<\/p>\n

Key continued his treatment at the hospital and, when visiting the hospital was difficult, received home treatments a few times, unaware that seeing Ms. Lee at home might be problematic because he believed she was a doctor and she never indicated otherwise.<\/p>\n

Recently, upon discovering the controversy over Ms. Lee’s medical license, Key realized for the first time that she was not a doctor and is deeply reflecting on his lack of awareness.<\/p>\n

Key recognizes the seriousness of this matter and has decided to step down from his current schedules and programs.<\/p>\n

Once again, we sincerely apologize for causing concern to everyone, including our fans.<\/p>\n
