Here's Kim Ji Soo's statement:
"I would like to sincerely apologize to all the people who were hurt because of me. My misconduct in the past cannot be excused. It's an unforgivable behavior.
As I began my acting career, people didn't know about my past that is why I reached this far and received an underserving love and interest from the public.
Deep in my heart, I always felt guilty about my past and regret that it was too late to turn things back which brought me anxiety. I always felt crushed by my dark past.
I am sincerely begging for forgiveness for all the people who were hurting for a long time while seeing me in the media, as an actor. I will reflect and repent on the unforgivable actions of my past.
I feel sorry and guilty as I created great damage to broadcasters, production crew, actors, and staffs who worked really hard for the drama. I sincerely hope the drama won't suffer any further because of me.
Once again, I sincerely apologize on my knees to all those who've suffered and hurt because of me.
