On June 3, iKON members Bobby, Junhoe and Donghyuk appeared on Channel A's "Dr. Oh Golden Clinic," and expressed their concerns amid their 8th year being together.

During the broadcast, the members opened up on one of their hardest times, which is when their leader B.I (Kim Hanbin) left iKON on drug charges.

Donghyuk (DK) said:

"When we had the hardest time as a team, of course, is when B.I left and we became a six-member group. We suddenly have no leader. At that time, all of the members didn't come out of their rooms."

Junhoe added:

"Instead of feeling sad, I was lost. It didn't seem real and it felt empty."

Bobby, with a reminiscing face, also said:

"I didn't even think what to do now. I lived every day thinking, 'It's gone.' The absence of the person I lived with was bittersweet."

This is the first time iKON has ever mentioned the withdrawal of their former leader B.I.

In an effort to get out of the crisis, Kim Donghyuk then conveyed:

"Everything was too much in the beginning. I wanted to get away as soon as possible. I wanted to play with my feet and show that the team is strong. I tried to do anything on my own terms. I became greedy because I was too passionate."

While iKON finally pulled out themselves from the "dark," another issue came to the group when Bobby suddenly announced his marriage and pregnancy.

When the members first found out though, they comforted Bobby without saying a word after seeing him cry a lot.

The "BUT YOU" singer Bobby then opened up on his feelings after finding out he will have a child.

"When I found out I had a child, I felt sorry for the iKON members. I was blessed, but I apologized to the members because I could bring damage to the team I am in due to my job as an idol. But thank you for giving me the blessing and for comforting me."

He went on by apologizing to fans, especially to iKONIC (fandom).

"I informed my parents and the agency first.
And then it was funny. I thought that life is very spectacular. There were so many things to do in the future, what to do with the house, and what to do with the wedding, that I couldn't feel anything."

"Idols should be an example for children and teenagers, but pre-marital pregnancy is not exemplary. I was sorry for that."

On the show, Bobby also said:

"I think my celebrity life was different."

The revealed his struggles of building his own identity, saying:

"People don't want to see me (for what I am), they want to see me as me that they want to see."

He continued:

"It's the hardest time when I am not the person that I am. I don't want to laugh, but I have to laugh, and I have to lie about my feelings."
