Disputed Incident: Details of July 11 Disputed
Contrary to Spire Entertainment's claims, IPQ contends that the events of July 11, 2022, were misrepresented.
Hwichan had not received his enlistment notice at the time, debunking allegations that the incident was related to his impending military service.

Reminder, when CEO Kang left her position after being confirmed of being sexually inappropriate with the members, physically abusing the members, and mentally abusing the members, she was placed in charge of the TRAINEES at the agency. This woman is dangerous.
