Fan autograph event for VIXX members Leo, Ken is postponed indefinitely
The fan autograph event for boy band VIXX’s Leo and Ken that was scheduled for this weekend has been postponed indefinitely.
The boy band's label Jellyfish Entertainment announced Friday that it decided to cancel the fan autograph event that was to take place on Jan. 14 and 15.
Though the label did not detail the reason, many speculate that it may be due to band member Ravi's recent draft-dodging allegations. On Thursday, Ravi was embroiled in controversy for allegedly being a client to a broker who was recently arrested for manipulating medical records to help young men evade their mandatory military service.
VIXX debuted in 2012 under Jellyfish Entertainment, but currently only Leo and Ken remain in the company. Other members, including Ravi, left the company as their original contract came to an end. However, all members agreed to have Jellyfish Entertainment oversee the group's activities.
Ravi is currently serving as a social service agent in lieu of his active duty military service.
