Ju Haknyeon is facing major controversy over prostitution accusations.
On June 18, 2025, it was announced that Ju Haknyeon would be leaving THE BOYZ. Reports from Japan’s Shūkan Bunshun spotted him meeting former adult video actress Kirara Asuka at a bar in Tokyo’s Roppongi district.
Soon after, his agency One Hundred terminated his contract and confirmed he was off the label.
An exclusive by Korean outlet TenAsia claimed Ju Haknyeon had solicited prostitution services from Kirara Asuka.
On June 20, Ju Haknyeon denied all prostitution allegations and blasted One Hundred for voiding his contract without consent and imposing a fine.
Ju Haknyeon posted a lawsuit document revealing he sued TenAsia’s Reporter Choi for slander and violations of Information and Communications Network laws.
Ju Haknyeon’s statement:
“I never solicited prostitution. The contract termination was unilateral and unjustified.”
The controversy continues to develop as fans and netizens monitor the situation.
