Regarding this, 'Boys 24' said on August 15, "The restaurant Alex entered was not a pub; it was registered as a Korean restaurant.  He entered with the consent of his parents and did not drink, so there's no legal issue.  In light of Alex's underage status, we had made a reservation at a restaurant that he could enter.  He drank a [non-alcoholic] beverage instead of alcohol, and we made him go home early.  We apologize for going somewhere that could cause misunderstandings.  We will be more careful from now on."
