The following is a hot dog TV apology.
Good morning. This is Ki-dong Kwon and Jae-yeol Jung of Hot Dog TV.
I recently got in touch with my acquaintances and came across an article about our back advertisement.
We are distressed, we feel our responsibility, and we are sorry.
We were standing upright, saying,’We have nothing to do with back advertisements,’ and’good influence’, but we were no different.
It’s hard to figure out how much betrayal and disappointment the viewers who believed in us would have been disappointed.
I have no excuses to give.
We deceived our viewers and made unreasonable gains.
We apologize again for this.
We have conducted a total of 27 advertisements since the company was founded, and although it varies depending on the period, we have received an advertising fee of approximately 3-15 million won.
A list of videos with missing back advertisements and paid advertisements will be attached in the more section later.
Everything is my invisibility as the representative. There is nothing wrong with people, employees and advertisers. It’s all because I haven’t looked at it.
For the time being, I will look back on the days that have been running up to this point, and ponder whether there was anything I was missing or not, and I will strengthen my inner room.
I will ponder and ponder how to reflect on it.
Once again, we apologize to the fans, staff, advertisers, and people who helped us.
