Yang Hyun Suk and YG Entertainment sue a reporter for libel

YG Entertainment and Yang Hyun Suk decided to file their lawsuits especially regarding the three articles and columns the reporter 'K' wrote last month. Some of the issues that the reporter brought up were related to illegal expansion of the YG Entertainment headquarters, and the various drug scandals and rumors floating around about the agency artists.

In regards to the alleged illegal expansion of their building (expansion not detailed in the blueprint and not approved), YG Entertainment explained that this can't be considered an issue because they already demolished that part of the expansion immediately after realizing it was not allowed.

While announcing their lawsuit, YG Entertainment and Yang Hyun Suk stated that reporter 'K' presented false accusations as the truth with these articles mentioning the building expansion and the various drug rumors.

Reporter 'K' however is of the stance that he has been wrongly sued. The reporter stated, "My column from last month that YG is pointing out, was simply asking for a detailed investigation by the prosecutors, but [YG & Yang Hyun Suk] did not look at the overall content and are just making an issue of a few sentences."
