Lee Jung voiced out recently through his SNS accounts, writing, "This is so absurd. After you recruit me for the program and even film my interview, you tell me that due to budget issues the program was scrapped. But now I see that all the other cast members with the exception of me are attending filming.The PD has ignored all my messages, this is no longer funny. Let's see how this all turns out.. Don't live like that."
He also added a hashtag that indicated that in place of him, Lee Soo Geun had joined the rest of the cast.
OnStyle responded, "It's true we held talks about casting him during the beginning of the production stage. But due to the channel's internal issues, we ended up scrapping the program plan, and we had told Lee Jung's side 'We decided not to make this program. We're sorry.'"
"However, two months afterwards, the concept and the direction of the program were changed up and it was readded to the lineup. It seems it was during this process that there was a misunderstanding with Lee Jung. We just called up Lee Jung's side and resolved the misunderstanding. We admit we were lacking in some aspects during our casting and production process, we will be more cautious in the future."
However after seeing OnStyle's response to the media outlets, Lee Jung once again wrote in fury, "Oh you resolved the misunderstanding? Why don't you try resolving the misunderstanding with me?" After a short rant, he added, "Just coolly admit your fault and sincerely apologize to me. All I hope for is that you take this in a good direction, and I also sincerely hope for the program to do well."
OnStyle's side have since revealed that they will be personally meeting with Lee Jung, once the production staff return from their overseas filming, to apologize and sort out the misunderstanding.
