Amid the controversy, Jessi has apologized publicly, reflecting on her decisions and the things she regrets not doing after her fan was assaulted by a man who was with her at that time. When the news first came to light, the rapper faced much criticism and many even branded her as a bystander. She apologized at that time as well, promising to find the culprit, whom she met for the first time that night. As the situation further aggravated, Jessi offered another heartfelt apology.

On October 23, she took to her Instagram and shared a new post penning, “First, I want to sincerely apologize to the victim and their family affected by this incident. Even though I caused this situation, my inappropriate behavior, attitude, and failure to respond have harmed many, including the victim. I have made them feel betrayed and angry.”

She added that she has regretted this tens of thousands of times. “ I wish I could turn back time. If I had taken a photo with the victim, done more to protect the victim, gone straight to the police, or offered a proper apology, the victim would not have suffered so much,” the Gum singer declared that she takes full responsibility for the current situation.”

Before ending the letter, Jessi took time to explain that even though she feels like she won’t be forgiven just with these words, she is still committed to rectifying her mistakes and helping to victim recover. “I was wrong,” she added.
