Netizens Suspect Newkidd Agency is Having Problems, Three Members 'Missing' and Hospitalized

Kapanlagi.com - Due to the scandals surrounding big agencies like FNC Entertainment and allegations of bullying among AOA members which led to Jimin leaving the group, even small idol groups like Newkidd under J-FLO Entertainment have also garnered attention.

A number of Newkidd fans have made their best efforts to draw public attention to the serious issue that has made them worried. Newkidd, originally a seven-member group, has lost half of their members without any clear reason since last April.

1. Lost in Social Media

According to Koreaboo, those who peek at NewKidd's official social media account will not know that the group is currently incomplete. In the latest Twitter and YouTube posts by Newkidd, only four members appear, namely Hwi, Woochul, Jinkwan, and Yunmin.

On Hansol's Instagram account, fans discovered the same surprising fact. They realized that J-FLO Entertainment has been trying to recycle old photos of Hansol since January to make it look like they were just taken.

2. Explanation of the Agency

Noticing this anomaly, fans automatically want to know where the other half of the Newkidd members are. A few months ago, J-FLO Entertainment answered fans' questions although they did not provide any enlightenment.

Through the Newkidd fan cafe that can only be accessed by Korean fans, J-FLO Entertainment made an official statement last April. In their post, the agency admitted that some personnel who cannot be named are currently being treated at the hospital for medical treatment due to health issues.

"Dear Newkidd fans,

First of all, we thank all fans for your attention and love. J-Flo Entertainment has an announcement.

Please understand that we cannot disclose the names due to privacy issues. Unfortunately, some of our personnel are being treated at the hospital for medical treatment due to their health issues. J-Flo supports the treatment and recovery process of the personnel as we consider their health a priority.

Send your warm messages to us until they return in good health after treatment," wrote J-Flo Entertainment.

3. Absent Personnel

Although not mentioning names, it is clear from Newkidd's social media that the personnel being treated in the hospital are Hansol, Jiann, and Seungchan. What worries fans more is the lack of updates on their condition for several months after that statement.

Since April 2020, no one knows exactly what happened to the three missing personnel. Fans will not stop questioning their whereabouts until J-FLO Entertainment provides an update on this issue.
