According to YouTuber and former entertainment reporter Lee Jin Ho, Jisoo and her family reportedly severed ties with her brother following allegations that surfaced in 2025.
At the time, posts on an anonymous workplace platform accused her brother of illegally filming intimate content without consent. The claims quickly spread online, causing significant backlash.
Lee Jin Ho stated that the incident led to a complete loss of trust, adding that Jisoo had no further contact or involvement with her brother after the controversy.
Monthly Boyfriend became part of the controversy when viewers noticed Jisoo’s brother’s name listed in the ending credits, raising questions about whether they were still working together.
However, the report clarified that: The series was filmed between October 2024 and May 2025—before the scandal fully emerged. During that period, her brother had reportedly assisted her in a limited capacity.
After the controversy broke, he was allegedly removed from all involvement related to Jisoo’s activities.
What drew particular attention was Jisoo’s reaction upon discovering the credit.
According to the report, she was both shocked and upset, and took immediate action to have her brother’s name removed. This reportedly required editing the final master version of the production, a process that can cost significant amounts.
It is further claimed that Jisoo personally covered the cost to ensure the removal, signaling a firm stance on distancing herself from the situation.
Jisoo’s agency has also addressed the matter, stating that the ongoing issues are entirely unrelated to the artist. They clarified that while family members may have provided minimal assistance during early stages of company setup, they:
- Received no financial compensation
- Held no official positions
- Were not involved in decision-making
The agency emphasized that operations have since been conducted independently without family involvement.
The situation surrounding Jisoo’s brother continues to evolve. He was reportedly arrested on charges related to alleged misconduct but was not detained after prosecutors cited insufficient evidence for a warrant.
Additional claims, including accusations of domestic violence made by his spouse, have further intensified public scrutiny.
