While DAY6‘s Jae speak up against his agency JYP Entertainment to point out the discrimination he faced, the two sides later said that they resolved the misunderstanding.
On June 29, Jae questioned why DAY6 official Twitter account didn’t promote his DIVE content. He posted a tweet of Young K’s playlist for ‘Live from DIVE Studios’ on DAY6’s Twitter along with the message, “Why don’t you repost my dive stuff?“
The next day, he complained about his label once again by writing two posts: “I’ve been doing podcasts, doing good on Facebook, and a collaboration with 88rising, but why don’t you always post my activities?” and “YouTube too. For my channel jaesix, I worked on it all alone, I was told so much by the company, I had to plead for permission, but even after all that, they told me I had to quit because it was ruining the company’s image. But why do the rest of the members get schedules, proper management, and investments from the company?”

최근만 들어서 파드케스트도 있었고 , 패이스북 화이팅한것도 있었고, 88rising 이랑 한 콜라보도 있었는데 왜 제가 하는 활동들은 항상 안올려주시죠? https://t.co/bkzs5DlONL

유툽도 저는 온간욕 다 먹어가면서 눈치보면서, 빌면서 겨우 허락받고, 혼자서 다하고, 결국 “회사사람을이 좋게보지않다”라는 의견으로jaesix 접게됐는데 왜 다른 맴버는 매니저분들이 스캐줄표도 만들어주고 회사가 콘태츠 비용도 도와주고 회사직원분들의 도음을 받으면서 좋게 좋게 할수있는거죠?

The repercussions grew when Jae directly spoke up against his label for not promoting his activities.
However, later on June 30, Jae wrote on his Twitter, “I just had a conversation with the company, and it seems like there was a misunderstanding. I’d like to say I’m sorry for causing you concern. And what I wanted to express was a personal matter between the company and me, and I didn’t even think it would be related to the other members. I’m sorry for worrying My Day with my short thoughts.”

Meanwhile, DAY6 released their 6th mini-album The Book of Us: The Demon, but halted their activities due to some of the members experiencing high anxiety. Since then, some of them have continued their personal activities.
