| People's Artist Hong Van. |
I bow my head and apologize for my lack of due diligence in checking the credibility and sales methods of the products I advertised. As an artist who has received much love, support, and trust from the public, I deeply regret not being fully aware of my responsibilities. I apologize for my carelessness.
As a public figure, I would like to acknowledge all comments and suggestions from everyone and will consider this a valuable lesson for myself. I will be more careful with my statements and always try harder to become a perfect artist in both ability and professional ethics, worthy of the audience's trust.
I sincerely thank everyone for helping me realize my wrongdoings."
