XG Release Statement

XGALX released a statement apologizing for the stress the incident caused fans. They made it clear that none of the XG members are involved in any way. The agency promised to cooperate fully with the investigation and said it would keep protecting the group’s activities and well-being while everything plays out.

News about the arrest took off on social media, with fans showing both worry and support. A lot of people pointed out how the group keeps things professional, insisting the focus should stay on XG’s music and creativity, not the mess around the agency’s leadership.

People in the industry say scandals like this can really shake things up for artists, especially for a group like XG that’s building an international presence. Still, analysts think that being transparent and keeping artist work separate from what’s happening with management helps keep public trust.

Despite everything, XG says they’re sticking to their schedule and pushing forward together. Fans have started online campaigns and are planning an event to show their support as the group deals with more public attention than usual.

The case is still under investigation, and so far, there’s no word on any specific charges or what comes next legally. Meanwhile, people in the entertainment business are watching closely to see if this will affect agency plans or upcoming projects.

As things keep developing, XG’s response is part of a bigger shift in the music industry—more openness, better protection for artists, and making sure fans stay engaged, especially when things get tough.
