YG Entertainment [As a company] & Yang Hyun Suk himself, mistreating their female idols - A thread

Everything I post on this thread that's about Yang Hyun Suk, is confirmed by himself and/or his [former & current] female idols.

If I forget to include anything, feel free to DM me what I missed [please include any type of picture or video evidence to support it]

The story of Yang Hyun Suk creeping on a 12 year old girl

[Confirmed by himself]

[1/2]

Yang Hyun Suk saw a 12 year old girl on TV. He fell in love with her [he's 12 years older than her, btw], recruited her to his company when she was 16 and debut her in his girl group, SWI.T.

[2/2]

YG didn't want her to grow popular and didn't want SWI.T to gain fame, so he purposely ignored the entire group, wanting them to fail [as he stated in the article above].

He then disbanded the group, ruining all their careers, including hers, just to marry her.

The many times Yang Hyun Suk called 2ne1 ugly

[Confirmed by 2ne1 themselves]

[1/2]

Minzy had stated that YG called her and the rest of 2ne1 "really ugly", on multiple occasions.

She said how that mentally affected her.

[2/2]

Minzy also stated 2ne1 knew of Netizens calling them "the ugly group" and that it was tough for them.

She said that the entire group tried to act like it's not a big deal, and tried to forget about it, but they couldn't, because it was tough.

CL said that YG kept calling them ugly.

Lee Seung Gi asked "he directly called you ugly?"

CL said "yes" & that YG came to their concert rehearsal (when they didn't have make up on), looked at them through the screen and said

"Ah, they're really ugly" in front of all the staff

CL leaking her on music video because YG wouldnt

[1/2]

In January 1, 2018, CL leaked her own music video on her Instagram account.

She said that she wanted to release music in 2017, but wasnt able to. So she leaked the mv (that was filmed over a year prior), as a gift for fans

[2/2]

She stated that she leaked the mv because she didnt know of it was ever going to be released & that she knew she'd get in trouble for doing it, but didnt care.

She had promised to release music for fans in 2017, but since her company didnt allow her, she leaked it herself

YG ignoring CL

[1/2]

When YG posted a picture on his personal Instagram account, CL commented

"Boss, what about me? #PleaseReplyToMyTexts"

Which further proves the (obvious) fact that he is purposly ignoring her.

[2/2]

When CL commented that under YG's post, many fans started defending her and asking for her album and saying how YGE doesn't deserve her.

CL liked all those comments.

CL not wanting to stay at YG Entertainment & finally leaving

[1/2]

One time, CL was asked to not leave YGE, and she replied to the person saying "You stay"

Around that time, she kept liking Instagram comments about how she deserved better than YGE & how YGE was mistreating her

[2/2]

When CL was under YGE she was basically jobless. She hadnt released new music in YEARS.

The second she left the company, she released her EP "In The Name Of Love" & even stared with Beyonce in the Adidas & Ivy Park collaboration video

Yang Hyun Suk not allowing Lee Hi to date

[1/3]

In 2014, when Lee Hi was 18 years old, she stated that she felt lonely and that she wanted to find someone special to spend time with. She wanted to start dating.

[2/3]

Around that same time, YG allowed Akdong Musician's Chanhyuk to start dating, so she asked YG if she could start dating too.

YG said no.

When Lee Hi asked why, YG said "If I say you cannot, then you cannot"

Both Lee Hi & Chanhyuk are the same age [Born in 1996]

[3/3]

That same time, YG told Akdong Musician's Suhyun (who was 15 at the time), that she can start dating when she turns 20.

Lee Hi then stated that she was the only one in the company who wasn't allowed to date and that the length of her dating ban was never decided.

Lee Hi admitting that YG favors Suhyun

[1/2]

During SBS' Healing Camp, Lee Hi revealed that YG treats his idols differently, and that he favors Akdong Musician's Suhyun.

Lee Hi said that whenever Suhyun did aegyo, YG would blush, get flustered & run away (Suhyun was a minor).

[2/2]

One time, Suhyun wanted to use SNS, so she used aegyo on YG. He blushed & said "YesYesYes you can. You can do as you wish" (Again, she was still a minor).

Lee Hi then said that upon seeing it work for Suhyun, she tried to do aegyo on YG, but YG said "what are you doing?"

Lee Hi's confirmed comeback that never happened.

[1/2]

On August 20, 2017, YGE confirmed that Lee Hi worked hard on her album, that would be released on September 2017

That album was never released. The only music she released after that announcement was 2 years later, in 2019

[2/2]

In 2018, a few months after her supposed comeback announcement, she went on fancafe & said that she misses fans & that she wants to quickly comeback, but it's not as easy as she thought.

& she apologized for not releasing music & for "being a singer with few expressions"

Yang Hyun Suk ignoring BlackPink

When YG walked into the room, BlackPink were the first people who greated him, they were standing right in front of him.

But he ignored them & walked right passed them. He then looked at them at the end and said "oh, you guys are here too?"

BlackPink's delayed debut

[1/2]

News of YG debuting a new supposed 9 membered girl group was released in 2012.

The GG's name was "Pink Punk". All 4 BlackPink members were a part of the line up

In 2014, the GG's debut was pushed back AGAIN due to YG's new BG.

[2/2]

In 2016, YG finally announced that he would be debuting a new girl group, named BlackPink, that included 4/9 Pink Punk members.

In July 1, 2012, YG Entertainment posted this video on their official YouTube channel, and called it "Future 2ne1"

None of the 4 girls in the video debut. But BlackPink were seen sitting on the side, watching.

YG lying about BlackPink's music

[1/2]

On July 2016, before BlackPink even debut, YG confirmed that by the end of 2016, BlackPink would release a total of AT LEAST 8 songs with 8 different music videos.

[2/2]

Well, in 2016, BlackPink released a total of 4 songs & music videos.

Today is June 2, 2020, BlackPink are [nearly] a 4 year old girl group, yet they STILL DON'T have a TOTAL of 8 music videos.

YGE & their unfair treatment towards BlackPink

[1/5]

BlackPink debut in 2016. This is their 4th year as a group, yet they only have 13 songs.

If we count their collaborations with Dua Lips & Lady Gaga, Jennie's solo AND their DDDD remix, they'd STILL have less than 20 songs.

[2/5]

The 1st image shows all of BlackPink's music releases since debut

The 2nd image is YGE's statement about BlackPink's 2020 releases

- 8 month hiatus between PWF/Stay & AIIYL.

- 12 month [1 year] hiatus between AIIYL & Square Up

- 10 month hiatus between Square Up & KTL

[3/5]

- 14 month hiatus between KTL & their next cb

BUT, that's a 14 month hiatus from KTL to their JUNE Pre-release single

Blinks have to wait until September for the Full Album's OFFICIAL release

• So, that's an additional 3 months. 17 months TOTAL since KTL was released

[4/5]

Let us not forget, at the end of 2019, YGE confirmed that BlackPink will be having a comeback during the FIRST half of 2020.

It's June, and the only information they released about the comeback is that it's a full album that's split in 3 releases.

[5/5]

YGE had to delay BlackPink's 2020 comeback because of "the Corona Virus".

Which is just a bullshit excuse, because Ikon & Winner BOTH had comebacks in 2020 already.

YG and their lies about BlackPink's solo music

[1/5]

The image below shows YGE's statement about BlackPink's solo releases.

In early/mid 2018, YGE confirmed that all 4 BlackPink members would release solo music 'soon'.

It's 2020 and only Jennie released her solo song.

[2/5]

Over a year ago, Rosé had stated that she was working hard on her album and that it would be released soon [just like YGE said in 2018].

Yet, in the statement above, YGE said that Rosé will be releasing her song in September 2020.

[3/5]

BlackPink comeback once a year. It takes YGE 1 year to prepare a single or 4 songs for BlackPink.

It took YGE 2 years to officially release a statement about what they're doing with Jisoo, Rosé & Lisa's solo music.

They're always coming up with excuses, lies & delays

[4/5]

They're always making up excuses and lies or delaying ANYTHING related to BlackPink.

Yet, if it's about their BG's, they keep their promise.

Treasure haven't even debut yet and they're already releasing solo music.

[5/5]

Whenever it's Rosé releasing a cover, it's just audio. No cover video, no nothing

But when it comes to Treasure, they get whole cover videos

How is that fair? They both worked hard, but one gets video covers, official solo debuts, etc., and the other doesn't get anything

Nearly every "update"/"news" YGE released about BlackPink (or any of their female idols, tbh) is a lie

It's obvious that they release all these statements & "updates", just to stop Blinks from sending them trucks & trending things worldwide.

They want Blinks to stop complaining

YGE not crediting BlackPink for working on their own music

[1/3]

BlackPink were not credited for any of these:

When STAY was released, Jisoo & Jennie were not credited for writing the lyrics

Long after its release, Jennie stated that she took part in writing the song

[2/3]

Jisoo also took part in writing STAY, but she wasn't even credited.

Not to Mention, BlackPink stated that Jisoo wrote the entire Korean part of Clarity, for her solo stage.

Jennie & Lisa even wrote the rap part in Sure Thing.

[3/3]

Jennie participated in writing SOLO & even helped choreograph the dance.

Rosé has also composed before.

I'm sure the girls worked on more of their music, but we wouldn't know because they're never credited.

But whenever YG's BG's work on their music, they ARE credited

YGE declining & refusing offers of celebrities & idols, asking to collaborate with BlackPink

[1/3]

Many celebrities have reached out to BlackPink and/or YG Entertainment & asked to collaborate with the girls, but none of those collabs happened, due to YGE.

DJ Snake & ZEDD:

[2/3]

Gallant reached out to Rosé and commented "sent you a song" under her Instagram post.

He went live & was asked to collab with Rosé. He said he wanted to, but that "he does not have a good relationship with people's companies"

[3/3]

The people I mentioned above are not the only ones. Many other celebrities & idols have said that they wanted to collab with BlackPink and even reached out to them, but nothing ever came out of it.

Here's an example of 2 of the many people who want to work with the girls.

YGE rarely allowing BlackPink to promote and attend events & award shows

[1/3]

BlackPink are [nearly] a 4 year old girl group, but they barely go on any variety or radio shows, to promote their comebacks.

They've only ever had 1 reality show too.

[2/3]

They RARELY attend award shows.

But when they do, YGE confirms a HUGE special performance, only for it to be a disappointment.

Their performances are short & the girls don't even get to participate in any Special/collab stages, with the other idols.

[3/3]

Not to mention, they dont ever attend events that other idols attend. One EXAMPLE of the events i'm talking about, is ISAC.

Or even Naver x Dispatch's 2018 Girl Group Maknae Christmas Party.

Or any other event of those sorts, where idols just have fun with other idols.

YGE not helping CL when she was performing at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics

[1/2]

In 2018, CL was invited to perform at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, but her BOSS & COMPANY did NOTHING.

[2/2]

As the image above shows, her & her backup dancers were the ones looking for hairstylists. They did their own makeup. Styled their own outfits, rehearsed alone, literally prepared the ENTIRE performance by themselves.

And they did an AMAZING job

Clip of the performance:

Lisa was swindled 1 Billion KRW by her former manager. YG Entertainment confirmed this.

Bom's "drug" scandal

[1/6]

Before we start, let me just say this from right now, what Bom had was PRESCRIBED medicine, NOT drugs. It was confirmed.

After news of Bom supposedly smuggling drugs into Korea, YG released a statement about this issue (as seen in the pictures below)

[2/6]

Bom released a statement about how she has ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder), and how she was investigated for the drugs issue, and she was found NOT guilty.

She stated that she gets her prescribed medication from the US [but it's apparently not allowed in Korea].

[3/6]

Bom released the statement below and explained the situation fully.

She said that AFTER 2ne1's disbandment, she didn't want to sing on stage anymore, but then realized that she doesn't want to let this rumor and misunderstanding, stop her from doing what she wants to do.

[4/6]

How he threw Bom under the bus & basically blamed her for 2ne1 disbanding

YG said that he disbanded 2ne1 because he "wanted Bom to focus on her mental health", which was absolute bullshit. Back then, his other idols had mental health problems too, but he kept them going.

[5/6]

Not to mention, back then, Bom herself had stated that she WANTED to continue with 2ne1 and that she was preparing stuff [that was never released, most likely because YG didn't allow it. He's done this before so no surprise there]

[6/6]

He blamed Bom for 2ne1's disbandment, when Bom herself DID NOT want that. She wanted them to CONTINUE.

YG just wanted to end 2ne1 then and there. It wouldn't be the first time he sabotaged and disbanded one of his GG's [I explained what he did to SWI.T up in this thread]

Why Minzy left 2ne1 & YGE

[1/5]

Minzy has been struggling with depression and even had suicidal thoughts, ever since she was younger.

She said it hit the hardest when she was around 16-17 years old, when they dropped "Can't nobody", "I Am The Best" and "Ugly"

[2/5]

She stated that being with her members, helped her A LOT, but because it took longer and longer for their albums to come out, and with the other members busy with solo activities, she would rarely see them. That lead into her feeling really lonely.

[3/5]

As I stated previously in this thread, 2ne1 struggled a lot, due to all the harsh comments they got by netizens & the media

She was also hurt & very affected when her own boss, Yang Hyun Suk, called 2ne1 ugly. She & CL both stated that he said that many times.

[4/5]

She also stated that YG Entertainment didn't handle her solo album well.

Her solo album was scheduled to be released before "I Am The Best", but was pushed back so many times, then was scrapped, because it conflicted with a different idol in the company.

[5/5]

Not to mention, in 2017, Minzy posted this photo of 2ne1 on her Instagram account, and said that it was a shame to find out that 2ne1 would be releasing their final album, through a news article.
