Ko Ji-yong had also expressed his enthusiasm for the performance through media interviews.However, as voices opposing Ko Ji-yong's return to the team emerged among SECHSKIES fans, and criticism arose regarding the excessively high ticket prices, Mountain Movement Story issued a clarification, stating, "This event is a separate planned performance for members to share music and memories, not an official reunion performance for SECHSKIES, and we have not pursued Ko Ji-yong's official return to the team. The announced ticket price is an example of hotel room rates."Furthermore, on the afternoon of the 10th, Lee Jae-jin posted on his social media that he had not planned or promoted the event himself, had repeatedly expressed his intention not to participate, and had not signed a performance contract, escalating the controversy. Lee Jae-jin also raised issues with the promotion and ticketing methods and requested that his name and photo not be used.Ultimately, Mountain Movement Story, which decided to cancel the event, claimed that "communication errors occurred during the process of him changing his mind" regarding Lee Jae-jin's participation. They added, "We are reorganizing the event to minimize damage to our fans and will transparently announce any confirmed details in the future based on objective data."laugardagr@tf.co.kr[Entertainment Department | ssent@tf.co.kr]
