Fans are finally getting an exciting update from Jung Ilhoon. The former BTOB member has just opened a new art exhibition in Seoul.
Former BTOB Member Ilhoon Launches ‘Tiny Ark’ Art Exhibition
Former BTOB member Ilhoon has provided an exciting update for his fans, as he opened his first art exhibition titled “Tiny Ark” in Seongsu-dong, Seungdong-gu, Seoul. The exhibition, which runs from October 4 to 6, showcases the artwork he has been developing during his period of self-reflection. This exhibition not only serves as a creative outlet for Ilhoon but also as a means of reconnecting with fans, letting them know that he is doing well.
In addition to displaying his artistic creations, Ilhoon is offering a variety of merchandise at the exhibition. Fans can purchase t-shirts, hoodies, ball caps, eco bags, mugs, key rings, and photo books as mementos of the event. Additionally, he is offering special photo cards—10 unique types that can be collected based on the amount spent at the exhibition. The venue, which spans two floors, has been thoughtfully arranged to provide fans with a memorable experience, further deepening the connection between Ilhoon and his supporters.
Ilhoon’s exhibition comes after a challenging period in his life. He left BTOB in December 2020 after being charged with purchasing and smoking marijuana. Ilhoon was caught for purchasing approximately 130 million KRW (~$96,520 USD) worth of marijuana between July 2016 and January 2019. During his appeal, he submitted 88 letters of self-reflection, seeking leniency from the court.
Since his release, Ilhoon has expressed remorse, issuing a heartfelt apology to fans through social media. He reflected on his actions, stating, “During the past few years of investigation, trial, and imprisonment, I’ve deeply reflected on my life.” Ilhoon vowed to live a more responsible life, promising, “I will live properly from now on and make every effort to ensure that I do not hurt anyone again.”
Congratulations to Ilhoon on the launch of his art exhibition.
