    Wonho, who faced accusations of juvenile detention, breach of contract, and drug use, has revealed his feelings.

    According to Starship Entertainment on the 14th, the police concluded their 5-month investigation

    and issued a not guilty verdict for Wonho regarding marijuana use allegations.

    After receiving the not guilty verdict, Wonho confessed his feelings on the 16th regarding his past controversies and the recent verdict.

     

    Wonho recalled his past living in a rented apartment and confessed to being bullied in elementary school.

    Wonho confessed, "My friends disliked me. In a word, it was bullying."

    Furthermore, at home, his parents' constant financial disputes tormented Wonho,

    and eventually, Wonho escaped his home and his lonely life with unfamiliar older acquaintances.

    Afterward, Wonho escaped his lonely life by gaining dominance among friends, but ultimately fell into the wrong path.

     

    Wonho stated, "I don't want to blame my friends. It was my choice.

    It might sound like an excuse, but I was immature," admitting his mistakes.

     

    Afterward, Wonho mentioned Jung Da-eun, with whom he worked as a fitting model,

    and said, "She greatly supported me so I could dream of becoming a singer."

    Wonho then pursued his dream of becoming a singer, immersing himself in practice, and eventually debuted with the group MONSTA X.

    Before his departure, Wonho was active as a lead vocalist and lead dancer.

     

    However, allegations of breach of contract, revealed by Jung Da-eun, and drug use allegations were raised,

    leading Wonho to eventually declare his departure from the team. Wonho said, "I was diligently preparing for a new album.

    I didn't want MONSTA X to collapse (because of me)," and "I thought leaving as soon as possible

    was the way for the team to survive. I wanted to minimize the damage," explaining his decision to leave.

     

    While Wonho actively reflected on his past transgressions, he vehemently denied the marijuana allegations.

    Wonho stated, "I admit to past issues. But I did not do what I did not do," strongly denying the allegations,

    and the police also issued a not guilty verdict after a 5-month investigation.

     

    Wonho, who did not leave his house for a while after his departure, said, "Even now, I can't forget 'MONBEBE' (MONSTA X fan club).

    I wanted to convey my apologies, so I agreed to this interview," he added.
