Singer Yong Jun-hyung has stepped forward with shocking claims about his agency, Black Made.
📢 Yong Jun-hyung Breaks His Silence on Agency Dispute
On June 21, Yong took to Instagram Stories to share his side of the story. He revealed that his issues with the agency began last year—claiming his contract was abruptly terminated and that he's now facing unfair financial demands.
🎙 "They Told Me to Leave, Then Changed Their Minds"
"On the day my album dropped last year, they suddenly called me in and said, 'We're downsizing due to too many business entities,' and offered to terminate my contract without conditions," he wrote. But when he showed confusion, he said the agency quickly backpedaled, saying, "Let's try to work things out."
Still, just a month or two later, Yong says he was told to leave the company anyway.
💸 Allegations of Fabricated Debts and Unapproved Investments
Yong claims the agency is demanding repayment for investments and "losses" he never agreed to or was informed about. "They keep citing parts of the contract," he explained, "but I've never done anything to violate it."
"They're calculating tens of billions of won out of nowhere and telling me to pay up and leave? I can't accept that," he emphasized. "I asked them to manage me according to the contract, but they've ghosted me multiple times. Who's really breaching the contract here?"
📁 A Complicated Label History
In October 2022, Yong launched the independent label Black Made—reportedly a subsidiary of Big Planet Made Entertainment. The current conflict now casts a shadow over that partnership.
