GOT7‘s Youngjae has made public an issue with an agency.
GOT7’s Youngjae | Naver
Youngjae is currently enlisted, but prior to this, was active in a number of ways.
One of these included appearing in the musical production Again Dream High in Spring 2025. Again Dream High was a continuation of Dream High, the popular 2011 K-Drama.
The musical’s run concluded in June 2025, but it appears there have been lingering issues.
In a post shared on his Instagram account, the idol accused the production company of failing to pay what was owed to him by a set date.
You said you would settle this by June 9, but it seems it still hasn’t been resolved even today.
Even from the position of someone who is owed money, whenever I contact you, I keep hearing:
‘Didn’t I say I’d pay you? Please wait a little longer.’
By August, it will have been almost a full year without this being settled.
At this point, it’s becoming very difficult.
I still haven’t properly received the appearance fees that I’m owed, and in that situation, how do you think it feels for me to see posts like this?
Also, please do not say that the payments are currently being settled because portions of the original amount have been paid little by little.
Yes, you have given me some money.
But in my view, it’s such a small portion that it’s difficult to say the account has actually been settled.
Did I ask for money unfairly?
Do the time I spent practicing, the effort I put in, and the entire process mean nothing?
I wanted to resolve this amicably.
However, I do not believe we are the ones who made this situation uncomfortable.
‘We’ll settle it within this month.’
Haha… I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve heard those words already.
