In July 2018, Kim Jung-Hyun was involved in a controversy over his "emotionless" behavior during a press conference.[ 14] [unreliable source? His agency, O& Entertainment, defended him by stating that "Because [Kim Jung Hyun] is spending a lot of time thinking about his character, immersing himself into the life of someone terminally ill every day, he had difficulty maintaining his [physical and mental] condition, and unintentionally made a mistake."[ 15] [better source needed In 2021, Kim released an apology letter regarding his behavior during that period, after a local tabloid claimed that he allegedly requested to remove several scenes that included physical contact with his then co-star.[ 16]
