Hong Jin-young left a long article.
On the 18th, Jinyoung Hong shared his feelings on Instagram in connection with the controversy. Hong Jin-young said, “I know it’s too late and I can’t turn back. But even now, I sincerely apologize and ask for forgiveness, so I picked up a pen.”
“On the day of my comeback with the new song, the article plagiarism broke out. I was really scared of what to say and my head was white. Even then, I seem to have been unable to get rid of my greed. The moment I admit it was plagiarism, I will never be able to get on the stage again. It seemed like it was so scary.”
He also confessed, “If I was wrong, I had to apologize properly and get confused, but I was in a hurry to make excuses instead of reflection. I wasn’t mature and I wasn’t like an adult. I made a mistake. I will accept the preliminary conclusion of plagiarism from Chosun University and deeply regret it.”
He finally said, “I have been receiving undeserved love compared to what I have. In the future, I will take time to quietly look back at me and do meaningful and good things to repay the love I received.”
Below is the full text of Jinyoung Hong.
Hello, this is Jinyoung Hong.
I know it’s already very late and it’s irreversible. But even now, I sincerely apologize and ask for forgiveness, so I picked up the pen.
On the day of their comeback with a new song, the article plagiarism broke out. I was really so scared of what to say and my head went white.
Until then, it seems that I couldn’t get rid of my greed. The moment I admitted it was plagiarism, I felt so scared that I would never be able to get on the stage again.
So I was in a hurry to rationalize myself in such a way that’the professor said there was no problem’ and’I can’t even teach with a degree’. It was because I was afraid that everything I had lived until now would appear as a lie.
I also thought that if I returned my degree, I would just pass it over, or maybe he would forgive me. So I used the expression’custom’. Maybe I was just thinking about getting out.
If I did something wrong, I had to apologize properly and get confused, but I was focused on making excuses instead of reflection. I wasn’t mature and I wasn’t even grown up. I was wrong.
I will accept the provisional conclusion of plagiarism from Chosun University and I will deeply regret it. Even now, I have made a great excuse to those who are preparing my master’s and doctoral thesis day and night. Sorry. I will acknowledge and reflect on everything.
In the meantime, I have been loved more than I have. In the future, I will take the time to quietly look back at me and do meaningful and good things to repay the love I received.
Once again, I bow my head and apologize. I am sincerely sorry.
