BLACKPINK's success comes from many factors. In addition to the members' talents, visuals, and catchy songs in both melody and choreography, the company YG Entertainment founded by former president Yang Hyun Suk also laid the foundation for this popularity. However, Yang Hyun Suk is currently facing a major lawsuit.

At the trial on November 14, the prosecutors recommended a 3-year prison sentence for 2 charges related to Mr. Yang Hyun Suk. That is to cover up BI's illegal drug use and threaten witness Han So Hee.

After discussion and consideration, the judge made a decision to make Mr. Yang Hyun Suk innocent for the accusation of witness intimidation on the grounds that "there is not enough evidence".

With this statement, the former president of YG Entertainment has escaped 3 years in prison. However, ahead of Yang Hyun Suk, there are still charges related to BI's act of covering up illegal drug use.

In addition to the above allegations, Mr. Yang Hyun Suk was once fined 13,500 USD (about 320 million VND) before accusing him of illegal gambling abroad.

It can be seen that, at the present time, the issue of artists' ethical violations is always the top concern of the public. The audience is ready to boycott when the artist makes a mistake.

Recently, KBS also announced a ban on broadcasting with 6 artists involved in legal and ethical scandals including Ha Jung Woo, Don Spike, BI (former iKON member), Kim Sae Ron, Kwak Do Won and Shin Hye Sung.

According to Nate, this is not the first time KBS has issued a ban on broadcasting with celebrities. This list is added every year, depending on the severity of the scandal, artists will be banned from appearing temporarily or permanently.
