P1Harmony’s Keeho has spoken out for the first time regarding his mother’s ongoing fraud case. In a heartfelt message to fans, he expressed both gratitude and remorse, reassuring supporters that he remains focused on moving forward.
Keeho’s Statement to Fans
On February 19 KST, Keeho took to a fan communication platform to personally address the situation. He acknowledged the challenges fans have faced due to the controversy, saying:
"I'm sure you've been going through a confusing and rough time lately. And I'm sorry for that. But I'm truly grateful for P1ece who believed in me and cheered me on."
He further expressed appreciation for the letters and messages of encouragement, stating:
"I'm reading all of the letters you've sent me, and I've gained strength because of your words. While I was sincerely grateful for your support, that gratitude also doubled how apologetic I felt. Still, I'll try to move forward, always thinking of P1ece beside me."
Background on the Fraud Allegations
The controversy dates back to March 2024 when Keeho’s mother was accused of fraud. According to reports, an alleged victim referred to as ‘A’ claimed that Keeho’s mother misused her son’s celebrity status and connections to deceive individuals, accumulating 1.1 billion KRW (approximately $825,000 USD).
The victim alleged:
"It’s been a year and a half, and she refuses to pay the money back and refuses to contact the victims. Keeho, please tell your mother to give back the money and turn herself into the police."
FNC Entertainment’s Response
In response to the controversy, Keeho’s agency, FNC Entertainment, issued an official statement clarifying Keeho’s lack of involvement in the case.
"Keeho's mother faced an investigation for fraud last year, but the investigation was ultimately concluded without indictment. The victim has since appealed the case, demanding a reinvestigation."
The agency further emphasized that Keeho was unaware of the situation until recently:
"Keeho has no affiliation with this case whatsoever. He did not know about the details of the case until recently. If Keeho's mother is found guilty through the investigation, of course, she will be held responsible. But as for Keeho, despite being unassociated with the case, he nonetheless feels apologetic toward the victims. He wishes to do all that he can to resolve the issue."
How Fans Are Reacting
Following Keeho’s statement, fans have shown their support on social media, expressing their sympathy for the idol while hoping for a fair resolution to the case. Many appreciate his transparency and his efforts to connect with fans during this difficult time.
