OMEGA X, reportedly, canceled their scheduled flight back to Korea on Sunday, October 23, amid the CEO's abuse allegations. Allegedly, several fans witnessed the agency's boss hitting the group's members.
OMEGA X was supposed to return to Korea from Los Angeles when the hitting allegations started circulating online. That said, rumors have it that Spire Entertainment let them be stranded in a foreign country.
AllKpop reported the boys canceled their reservation when the rumors began online. Only Jaehan, Hwichan, Sebin, Hangyeom, Taedong, Xen, Jehyun, Kevin, Junghoon, Hyuk, and Yechan were said to be left in the U.S. while the staff members working with them throughout their tour bounded the said flight back to Korea.
In a statement, the company's CEO revealed they had been "discussing canceling the reservations for three days because the members could be onboard with fans." The boss then cleared up that it wasn't true they let the band stranded in the U.S.
The CEO explained that allegations were only made by an anti-fan, making them frustrated after working so hard and pulling all-nighters, and they didn't care.
Spire Entertainment also released an official statement on Monday, October 24, about the CEO's alleged abusive manner toward OMEGA X members. It first apologized for causing concern due to the malicious claims.
It then stated that the "Love Me Like" hitmakers' first world tour, "Connect: Don't Give Up," in L.A., officially ended on Saturday, October 22, and the alleged hitting scene happened following the celebrations for the month-long event.
At the time, they were discussing the possible next tour. From there, a "situation" was said to have escalated while "sharing things that could have been done better."
The discussion continued after the meal, and OMEGA X members and the label resolved all the misunderstandings and promised to move forward with respect for each other.
It then apologized for not showing its best side, but despite that, they all worked together to keep their promise to their fans.
For starters, fans shared on Twitter that they saw the agency CEO hitting OMEGA X members. One fan said it happened in front of them, also posting an audio recording of the boss yelling.
The woman in the recording could be heard questioning the boys and asking one of them who he thought he was. The man then answered that another guy was on the verge of collapsing, to which the lady replied she had also fainted.
Something then loudly fell, and people's murmurs could be heard in the background while the woman said, "get up." Someone then came and asked what she was doing, and the clip ended with crying noises as the woman, presumed to be the CEO, continued to talk.
