J.Tune Camp has also just come forward with their first official statement on the matter. A representative from the company stated, "Lee Joon will still be participating in the November concerts. We will be taking all of the members\' wishes and considerations, along with the agency\'s decisions to come to one final conclusion. Our agency will also work hard to make the best decision for MBLAQ." The rep concluded by stating that a full statement will be released as soon as a final decision is made.

Aside from the representative\'s statement, J.Tune Camp has also come forward stating:

We are giving our official statement in regards to news of Lee Joon withdrawing, and MBLAQ\'s break-up reported earlier today.

It is true that Lee Joon\'s contract is coming to a close, however Lee Joon\'s departure has yet to be decided officially, as discussions are still going on.

Due to the nature of Lee Joon\'s decision, it is excpected that Lee Joon will participate in all of MBLAQ\'s activities, including their November concerts.

Lee Joon is discussing with the agency his thoughts, future plans, goals, and career. We plan to come to a final decision together, taking Lee Joon\'s opinion as well as other MBLAQ members stance on the situation.

J.Tune Camp will announce future decisions through official statements.

Though the statement includes news on Lee Joon, no statement has been made in regards to news of Thunder\'s departure.

J.Tune has clarified that they are in discussions with BOTH Thunder and Lee Joon as related to their withdrawal from the group.

Wow, I\'ve followed MBLAQ since their debut... I\'m pretty speechless, but I wish both of them well. I will always support them and MBLAQ, even if they end up as trio or having members who will replace Joonie and Thunder :3

Just make them trio. Joon and thunder can\'t be replace by anyone. :(

I wish they\'ll find happiness in their new company/campanies (but I hope they both would go to the same new agency).

I loved MBLAQ. They were the group that got me into kpop. And the worst part is the first person I knew in MBLAQ and My bias is leaving. Though I am a little disappointed, I wish them the best in the future

Why do things like this happen when I sleep? 

This just keeps getting worse and worse. Everyday there is somebody leaving a group or some other things Kpop is really messed up this year. I wish thunder and lee joon good luck on all their future plans.
