L.Joe Reveals True Reason Why He Deleted Instagram Photos

TEEN TOP member L.Joe has finally broken his silence and explained why he have to make changes and delete some photos on his social media accounts through a message posted on the group's fan site.

"It's been a long time. First and foremost, the reason that I deleted all of the pictures on my Instagram which had memories I've made with fans in them was not because I wanted to erase those memories. It was difficult for me to look at photos capturing moments that I will no longer be able to return to. Please cherish our memories, and don't forget them. I will cherish them as well," wrote the singer as quoted by All KPop.

He added: "Absolutely. I sincerely apologize for making fans frustrated because I wasn't able to speak up for myself through SNS up until now. There was nowhere for me to let out my own frustrated heart.. and these situations. Thank you for worrying about someone like that, and I really am sorry for making you worry. The weather has been cold suddenly, so please watch out for sickness. Angel.."

The 23-year-old artist was recently reported to have appealed for a contract termination with his management agency TOP Media which is supposed to end on January 2018. Following the news, allegations started surfacing online that L.Joe's decision to split with the label is due to their restrictions on his solo activities.

In their defense, the agency released an official statement saying that the accusation thrown against them are not true. It further said as quoted by Soompi: Although we were dissatisfied with some of the agreements [with the producers], we decided to give up on our goals as a company to allow L.Joe to do as he wanted. Despite these efforts on our part, L.Joe sent us a request to terminate his contract, saying that we did not meet our obligations as a management agency because we did not enter into a contract [with the producers] early enough".
