According to an E-Daily investigation on the 29th, her agency, Megaton Entertainment, recently notified Nancy Rang of the termination of her contract. A Megaton Entertainment official told E-Daily, “We have verbally notified her of the contract termination.” Nancy Lang was caught by police driving under the influence on a road in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, around 3:45 a.m. on the 8th. It was determined that her blood alcohol concentration at the time exceeded 0.08%, the threshold for license revocation. After news of the incident broke, Nancy Lang apologized, saying, “I had one or two glasses of champagne at a friend’s birthday party and got behind the wheel because I was close to home,” adding, “It was a careless decision.” However, regarding the term “heavily intoxicated,” she stated, “That does not match the actual situation,” and asked for the facts to be accurately verified. Controversy also continued regarding her actions following the DUI incident. Without taking any time off to reflect, Nancy Lang continued her promotional activities by posting a series of videos and reviews related to her solo art exhibition on her social media accounts. While it appeared she was promoting the exhibition as it neared its end, criticism arose over the appropriateness of her actions given that they took place immediately after she was caught driving under the influence. With her contract with her agency terminated following the DUI incident, this is expected to have a significant impact on Nancy Rang’s future broadcasting and entertainment activities. Meanwhile, Nancy Rang refuted the reports in a statement to Edaily, saying, “I have not received any documents regarding the termination of my exclusive contract,” and added, “I have neither agreed to the termination nor signed any termination notice.”
