Here is what Omega X Shared in the Press Conference.

During the conference, the members of Omega X also shared their individual stories related to it. Jaehan said, “CEO Kang called me after practice ended and made me drink. There was also s*xual harassment involved. He stroked my hand and face.

He also said she would commit suicide, so the members received therapy. We only wanted to be respected as people who love music.” He further added, “It was our second try for everyone, so we didn’t want to waste any time.

We believed that we had to put up with it since our followers were waiting. As the eldest member and leader of the group, looking at our exhausted members, I was very afraid that our dreams would crumble. We resisted and tolerated it, but now we are past the point where we can no longer tolerate it.

We mustered our strength for someone, for everyone who shares our desire.” Another member of the group Sebin revealed, “They said that there would be no next album for them if we refused to attend drinking gatherings.”

Lawyer Seo Joo Yeon also brought up the s*xual harassment the members endured, claiming that during the drinking events they were made to attend, they were stroked on their thighs and faces such that the other person’s breathing could be heard.

They also disclosed that the CEO told them if they want to continue Omega X they better keep crawling. They also talked about the psychological and physical issues that the members have gone through because of CEO Kang.

Hangyeom claimed that he frequently received drunken calls, which made him anxious around noises in his daily life including vibrations, alarms, and bass sounds in music. Hangyeom acknowledged that he was having problems breathing as a result of the difficult circumstances during his private conversation with CEO Kang.

Junghoon said that they have never received any kind of apology from them as of yet. They concluded the conference by thanking their fans who are their strength. They said that all 11 members of the group will not give up, and will continue to make music and performances while greeting fans by showing a good side to them.
