Kevin, a member of The Boyz, has issued a formal apology following criticism for showing support for a rival team after participating in a ceremonial first pitch and bat event for the home team. In a statement posted on The Boyz's official social media account on April 22, Kevin expressed his apologies to baseball fans and The B fans, the group's fandom. He acknowledged his actions during the event caused discomfort and regretted the incident. Kevin admitted his mistake of not solely supporting the Kiwoom players during the game's kickoff and apologized to those who were offended by his actions. He also apologized to his fellow member Eric and to Kiwoom fans. Kevin emphasized the importance of being mindful of words and actions and pledged to act more thoughtfully in the future. Previously, Kevin and Eric had participated in the ceremonial event at a '2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League' game between the Kiwoom Heroes and the KT Wiz. Although they performed well in the roles wearing Kiwoom Heroes' uniforms, Kevin faced backlash for expressing support for a rival team during the event. Fans criticized Kevin for his actions, considering them inappropriate and disrespectful.
