Jack J97 speaks out directly after 5 years of personal life controversies.

On July 16th, in Ho Chi Minh City, singer Jack J97 (real name Trinh Tran Phuong Tuan) and his team held a live discussion addressing recent controversies, including accusations of delayed delivery of lightsticks, and scandals surrounding his personal life involving his ex-girlfriend and children.

Jack officially speaks out about the lightstick controversy and his personal life.

The incident attracted public attention because for nearly five years, Jack J97 has been almost continuously involved in a series of scandals, from his singing career to his personal life, especially those related to accusations of abandoning his child, providing meager financial support for his child, and forcing his ex-girlfriend to have an abortion… Notably, the event featured the appearance of Ms. Cam Loan - Jack J97's mother. The entire sharing session was livestreamed on social media, attracting a high number of views on YouTube.

Lightsticks are a popular item in K-pop idol culture, originating from South Korea, often used to show support for artists at music shows. In August 2024, Jack announced the release of two exclusive lightstick designs in preparation for his concert. At that time, Jack announced the sale of 3,600 lightsticks at a price of 997,000 VND each. Some fans accused Jack's lightstick designs of plagiarism, citing similarities to those of several K-pop stars. However, despite many fans purchasing them, no lightsticks have actually appeared on the market since August 2024. The issue has been frequently discussed online, with demands for a response from the singer.

At the press conference on July 16th, Jack's representatives affirmed that the company did not engage in any deceptive or exploitative behavior towards fans when selling the lightstick. "The company has all the necessary documentation to confirm that the information being spread is false and harmful. A completely new version of the lightstick will be released soon," the team representative stated.

Jack and his team's sharing session addresses the recent controversies.

Also today, Jack announced three upcoming art projects. However, information about the music products was overshadowed by a series of fierce and conflicting controversies from the public, and the uproar across social media regarding Jack's statements about his private life and that of his mother. Simply having his mother appear with him to "resolve the media crisis" has drawn further criticism.
