APRIL Members Chaewon and Yena Respond to Hyunjoo's Bullying Allegations

After Lee Hyunjoo released her personal statement about the bullying controversy, APRIL members Yena and Chaewon refuted her accusations and revealed their sides of the story.

APRIL Yena stated that throughout their career, there was this one member who continuously pushed them away. That member would think of herself as the only victim and see them as the perpetrators when something bad happened to the group.

She added that because of her, APRIL members would always feel bothered and afraid of not knowing how situations would change. Yena also mentioned that each of them had suffered physically and mentally, yet there was never any bullying, violent actions or words, or ostracism.

Meanwhile, APRIL Chaewon stated that after Somin left, she became the oldest member of the girl group. Hence she made an effort to make sure that the members get along. She paid more attention to Hyunjoo, as she knows she is physically and mentally weaker.

Chaewon then said that she was so close with Hyunjoo that their mothers were in contact with each other. She also denied the rumors that she dated their manager, who have undergone lots of stress because of Hyunjoo.
