<p><br></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">We are sending our new year’s greetings to all the fans of RP’s around the world.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Thank you all for your continuous love and support for RP and we truly hope 2017 will be a year of health and peace for everyone.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Today, we would like to take the opportunity to explain the recent condition and the future course of James</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">On June 11, 2015, James has got into an unexpected and tragic accident which caused an immense shock and wound to James himself, his beloved family, all members of Apple of the Eye and his precious fans.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Despite the circumstances, all three members of RP were determined in their belief in not giving up on each other and continuing in their musical career. Until recently, RP was continuing in their official activities and were enthusiastically preparing for their new album which is to be released in 2017.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Since the accident, James had to receive numerous surgeries on his wrist yet the nerves and functions have not been recovered till now. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Due to avascular necrosis, shattered bones on his writs has been rotten away and distorted, causing James excessive pains day and night. However James had been enduring it all unyieldingly and patiently, doing his best till now in hopes of recovery. </span></p><p><span style='color: rgb(0, 112, 192); font-family: 돋움, Dotum, Helvetica, "Apple SD Gothic Neo", sans-serif; font-size: 12px;'> </span><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Nonetheless, the pain was not only in his hand but started expand to other parts of his body. James especially had often pleaded about headache. Also, the posttraumatic stress reached such an extreme level that James had no choice but needed an absolute rest. </span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">At the end of March, 2016, James visited his hometown, LA to receive a better treatment for his injury and consulted with many specialists there. However, due to strong opposition from the inflictor, the plan was foundered. As a consequence, James had to return to Korea to take a reoperation and was traveling to three to four hospitals for rehabilitation to continue in his recovery. </span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">In mid-January, 2017 James proceeded with an examination to find a cause for the severe headache and received seriously apprehensive news that doctors have found blood clot on his brain. </span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Given James' condition, Apple of the Eye has finally decided that stability and peace of mind shall be the first priority to James and that James shall return to LA </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13.33px;">as soon as possible </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">where his family resides.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">However, James has to remain in Korea a bit longer for the currently on going lawsuit for indemnification for damage and physical examination for the court case with the inflictor (Samchully Energy. Chai 797). Thus, James will be provisionally taking a leave from all his professional activities and focus on his recovery and lawsuits.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">James is at a fragile state and this is the time for all of us to put our hands and hearts together to pray for and support James that he will be back to the healthy and strong James as he used to be.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">All of us at AOE respect the difficult decision James has made and will continuously pray and wait for James that he will regain himself and meet back with all his fans at whenever he can.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">All members of RP have faced many obstacles and pains in life since they were young.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">However, none of the hardships could have stopped them from pursuing their passion for music and separated them from the fans who loved their music. Moon and Soo Yoon had never stopped ; they patiently walked through the difficult seasons and they will continue to do their best, taking up James' part in RP. We ask for your continuous support for Moon and Soo Yoon as they strive on their new journey</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Apple of the Eye believes that RP will become stronger through this process of complete healing and restoration and we wish for RP to return to you soon.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">We appreciate all of you who are cheering and praying for RP with all your heart and we sincerely promise to return all your love and support back to you.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Thank you.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">January 31, 2017</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">From all members of AOE.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></p>
