SBS has apologized for Wendy's fall on the set of '2019 SBS Gayo Daejeon' on the 25th.
On December 26, SBS released an official apology addressed to Wendy, her family, Red Velvet members and fans, and stated, "We wish to apologize once more regarding 2019 SBS Gayo Daejeon. During the rehearsals for Gayo Daejeon on December 25, an unfortunate accident took place. SBS wishes to once more sincerely apologize to Red Velvet’s Wendy, who was injured, as well as her family, the members of Red Velvet, and fans.
"As Wendy’s recovery comes before all else, the director of SBS’s entertainment division and the staff have been working closely with her agency SM Entertainment since the accident occurred, and we are doing our best to provide adequate treatment for her injuries."
"Right after the accident took place on December 25, the staff blocked off the area and called for emergency services so that Wendy could be rushed to the hospital and undergo a thorough examination. We have begun an internal investigation into understanding the exact details of the accident, and once we fully understand the cause, we will take greater care to ensure that such an accident does not occur again."
"Wendy is currently undergoing inpatient treatment and examination at a hospital in Seoul. SBS promises to do our best to work with Wendy’s family and the medical staff to ensure that Wendy has a quick and full recovery. Once again, we wish to sincerely apologize to Red Velvet’s Wendy and her family."
- [+4,073, -28] If you had just apologized earlier people wouldn't have been this angry. Even if it's too late, please do a proper investigation and make it right.
- [+1,946, -47] Sounds like they're just trying to beat around the bush so that things don't escalate...they're such cowards.
- [+1,604, -19] Well, the investigation results are pretty obvious. They'll blame the third party outsourcing.
- [+934, -18] They're already leaving out any hint of blame on themselves ㅋ
- [+526, -15] So damn late with the apology..
- [+231, -5] They're only apologizing because they're SM's top idol. If this was some other group they would've buried it quietly.
- [+156, -1] I can't believe they're uploading it after a day. Why didn't you say anything about how the accident happened? Face injuries are serious for an active idol that'll take a long time to rehab especially the pelvis fracture. Make sure SBS takes responsibility for everything until the end. Take responsibility for all the trauma and distress Wendy has in store for the future. On top on Wendy, I hope you'll take responsibility for the other member's suffering and compensate them too.
- [+110, -3] I'll be boycotting SBS the minute it's looking like they're shifting blame to some minor staff or third party. SBS, please show us that you can be responsible.
- [+29, -0] Why did it take you a day to write this?
- [+14, -0] They're only doing this because Wendy is from a huge agency and not some nugu agency somewhere ㅋㅋㅋ I just hope and pray that Wendy gets well soon.
