Since the initial report, this case has received heavy public attention, and other accusations, including claims of domestic violence, have also come to light. The situation remains serious and closely watched, especially due to its seeming connection to the \u201cEarthquake\u201d singer and her status as a celebrity.<\/p>\n<p>Jisoo has publicly distanced herself from the issue. Through her legal representative, she said she has lived separately from her family for years and that neither she nor her agency has legal or business ties to her brother. Her agency, <strong>Blisoo Entertainment<\/strong>, also denied online claims that he held an executive position at the company. Despite that, scrutiny continued after reports said his name appeared in the credits of the Netflix series \u201cBoyfriend on Demand,\u201d which premiered in 2026, as chief executive of Jisoo\u2019s agency.
