On August 31, AJ spent time answering fans' questions on Instagram.
One of the questions that he was asked was, "Have you talked to the guys of U-KISS?"
To the question, AJ answered, "Do you talk to people who have irrationally blocked your path and future?"

AJ began by saying, "It'll be the first and last explanation of the truth which I have painfully kept silent for years."
He said, "I believe that trust is a very important issue between an employee and company. If an employee of a company has worked for over a decade but his hard work has been neglected, and if he has realized that his and company's will was no longer the same, it gives him no choice but to leave."


Lastly, he added, "So, I'd appreciate it if you could refrain from commenting on the group. For those who were hurt by the decision to leave and those who were hurt by the misunderstanding, I'm truly sorry. It wasn't easy for me to speak the truth."

Then, AJ left U-KISS after his contract expiration, and has been building his musical career as a soloist since.
