I will try not to do anything wrong again and live with repentance.” He also admitted that his actions have affected the reputation of the band. He ended the note with a sincere apology.

I know that it is difficult to heal the wounds and disappointments that my fans have received with my words, so I regret it deeply and reflect on it with a heavy heart every day. Once again I sincerely apologize to the fans who were hurt by me. We will receive criticism and reprimand as well as future dispositions.
Finally, once again I sincerely apologize for causing a social stir and disappointing many people." The mention of India quickly grabbed the attention of BTS ARMY, the band's fanbase in India.
