Amid B.A.P's recent filling of lawsuit for the nullification of their contract with agency TS Entertainment, fans have been in constant surveillance on the social media accounts of the idols. Others even checked previous SNS timelines of the idol group members.
In a report by Koreaboo, it was found that the group's leader and main rapper Yongguk posted a selca on his Instagram the day before the news broke. In the said post, which was deleted after the lawsuit filing was publicized, Yongguk allegedly said he was going to Prague.
Meanwhile, member Himchan also reportedly updated his Instagram with a selca minutes before the media outlets reported about their lawsuit. The said post was also reportedly deleted shortly after.
According to the report, Himchan and other two members Daehyun and Youngaje changed their profiles in their respective Twitter accounts. They reportedly removed the official link to their official Daum profiles.
Youngjae, meanwhile, included a line on his Twitter profile saying, "The people together with me forever. Thank you." This left fans to discuss on the real intention of his post with regards to the recent controversy.
All members of the group, Yongguk, Himchan, Daehyun, Youngjae, Jongup and Zelo, filed a lawsuit on Wednesday at the Seoul Western District Court, Kpop Herald reports. The lawsuit was filed to nullify what they referred to as a "slave contract," which is allegedly benefiting TS Entertainment only.
In their lawsuit, the idols cited unreasonably long seven-year contract, unjust profit distribution, as well as intrusion of privacy and exploitation of basic rights.
TS Entertainment released an official statement on the same day the news broke, denying B.A.P's accusations.
"Currently TS Entertainment is in the process of trying to figure out the details and the truth of the matter. However, we wanted to make clear that there is no such thing as a 'slave contract' or 'unfair contract conditions' in our contracts, and we have never given them unfair, one-sided treatment."
Meanwhile, there are no new updates yet about the lawsuit.
