JYPE clarified the reports about 2PM Jun.K suffering from facial nerve paralysis are false.

On June 7, one news media reported Jun.K, who is currently in the basic military training, suffered from facial nerve paralysis. At the time, JYPE stated, “it’s hard to confirm the news since it has happened in the military. However, once we are able to confirm, we will release the official statement.”

According to the earlier reports, Jun.K received a facial surgery in April, before he enlisted in the military on May 8. However, it was unclear whether this alleged paralysis developed as a result of his surgery or a possible accident that occurred during his military training.

Later that day, JYPE released an official statement that denied the reports.

The following is the statement from JYP Entertainment:

Hello, this is JYPE.

We have confirmed with Jun.K himself, regarding the earlier reports about him.

After enlisting in the military, Jun.K felt a pain in his shoulders and has received treatment for it. However, besides that, he has no problems health-wise and is currently going through training in good conditions.

After his enlistment in May, he was chosen as a platoon leader recruit and achieved great results on all of his exams. As a result, he even received complimentary opportunities to call his 2PM members and is overall living an exemplary military life.

Lastly, we express our gratitude towards our fans who have always supported and thought of Jun.K

Thank you.
