TXT member Huening Kai recently found himself at the center of online rumors after a post claimed he had been spotted drinking late at night with a woman. The incident reportedly took place on October 8, when an online user shared clips of Huening Kai and a woman leaving a private room in the early morning hours. The woman appeared unsteady, sparking speculation about who she was. Some fans even guessed it might have been his sister, Lea.
However, Huening Kai decided to clear the air himself. Through a heartfelt message on Weverse, he addressed the situation directly to MOAs, TXT’s fandom. “I feel really sorry towards MOAs and don’t understand why I should avoid talking about this, so I’ll tell you,” he began. He explained that he was simply meeting an acquaintance and that it wasn’t a big or secretive situation. “I was with an acquaintance, and it was a situation where I couldn’t leave her there, so I dropped her off and returned to the dorms right away,” he wrote.
The 23-year-old clarified that they met at the only open private room available since most other places were closed at the time. He added that he rarely goes out with people but decided to meet this friend after a long time. “I’m sorry for causing concern and worrying you guys,” he said sincerely. “Since I hate lying, I just wanted to be honest about it.”
Huening Kai made it clear that there was nothing inappropriate about the situation and that his fellow TXT members were not involved. He also apologized to his group, the staff, and his fans for any confusion or disappointment his actions may have caused. “I wanted to become someone that you trust, but I feel like I haven’t given you that trust, so I’m sorry.”
In a follow-up message, he added that he recognizes he still has some growing to do and is open to feedback. “If there’s something I’m not communicating properly, please let me know,” he told fans.
Huening Kai ended his messages by promising to stay focused on his work and be more careful in the future, reassuring fans that there was truly nothing to worry about.
