▶Below is the full text of Jinjarim’s apples.

Hello, this is Jinjarim.

I would like to tell you about starting a Tanghulu store. First of all, I would like to express my apologies for conveying an uncomfortable story to those who have shown support and interest in starting my Tanghulu store, regardless of whether I am at fault or not.

I saw many stories going around about my opening a Tanghulu store. I thought that what was more important than telling you about the truth of the story was to quickly come up with a plan to prevent damage to CEO Wang Gatanghulu and other people involved, so it took me some time to tell you the truth.

When I started a Tanghulu store, I basically did not think deeply about how much demand there was in the commercial district depending on the characteristics of the product, how the surrounding commercial district was formed, and what positive or negative factors could arise from my startup. I started a business in this state. It was also my fault for missing the fact that this could have a negative impact on Wanga Tanghulu’s livelihood.

Therefore, with the knowledge that I may cause harm to someone through my business, I decided that people who visit my store would not be able to visit the store with a happy heart, and I would not be able to run the store with a happy heart. I did it.

Aside from everything else, we fully sympathize with the fact that this may have caused damage to well-meaning people, including CEO Wang Ga Tanghulu, and we would like to apologize once again.

So, my Tanghulu store, which was scheduled to open, will be “temporarily suspended” from opening. I fully feel responsible for this incident and will not open the store at its current location.

As I mentioned through my content in the process of preparing to start a business, tanghulu is a food that brought me a lot of comfort during difficult times, and it is a food that I made to receive a lot of attention and support from viewers. I would like to prepare again after thorough preparation and consideration so that everyone who visits my store can have a happy experience, just as I felt happy through Tanghulu.

Additionally, there is something I would like to clarify based on facts. The story that is currently circulating in the community that Tanghulu opened a store by deceiving real estate agents and landlords is completely untrue. When I was introduced to the lessor, I told him about my plan to start a business, including a set budget and a store selling Tanghulu. Likewise, it is not true that the broker was deceived or that the broker apologized to Wangatanghulu.

Also, it is true that I did not meet the owner of Tanghulu Wang in person and ask for his understanding in advance about opening a Tanghulu store in the store right next door, but I told the manager of Tanghulu Wang that I would run a Tanghulu store, so I decided to open a Tanghulu store. We would like to tell you that we absolutely did not intentionally deceive #39; into thinking it was a ‘dessert store,’ and we also had no intention of ruining the business of the store owner.

Lastly, I would like to inform you that the people I mentioned during the live broadcast as ‘the store’s daily part-time job list’ are based on my wishes and have no relation to them at all. I also sincerely apologize for any negative impact my comments may have had. Therefore, we sincerely ask that secondary damage is not inflicted on them.

While preparing for starting a business, I learned a little bit about how heavy, important, and difficult it is for an individual. In addition, he quickly reprimanded me for my problem and thanks to his words, I was able to correct my poor behavior. Thank you and I’m sorry.

I’m young and don’t know much, so I won’t say the same thing. We will strive to correct any shortcomings and take responsibility for those for which we are responsible.

I am sorry to the many people who believed in and supported me.

I also sincerely apologize to CEO Wang Katanghulu, who must have felt the most difficulty due to this incident.
