10 Celebs that Publicly Shamed Their Companies

misc.
1. 1. Jessi
Jessi called out her company, YMC Entertainment, for doing nothing to promote her song "Don't Make Me Cry" when it was released. She posted a photo of herself looking somber on her Instagram, writing that there was "absolutely no marketing by my company" and the hashtags like: #selfemployed #selfmade #selfpromoting #onmyown."
2. 2. Lee Hong Ki
Similarly to Jessi, FT Island leader Lee Hong Ki also blasted his label, FNC Entertainment, on his Instagram, calling them "dirty and cheap" for not even once promoting the band's new single, "Puppy." By coincidence or not, the label belatedly released a statement about the band's new release, only after the Instagram post.

The singer had also spoken out against his label on a television appearance on "Radio Star" for showing favoritism to CN Blue vocalist Jung Yong Hwa.
3. 3. Eric Nam
Eric Nam expressed his frustration with his company, CJ E&M/B2M Entertainment tweeting: "My company don't respect me," then "Naw this ain't hacking. This is just the truth."

While it was never revealed what the issue was, the singer later deleted the tweets and his company released a statement saying: "it was a misunderstanding that was easily resolved in a conversation."
4. 4. BoA
BoA has a reason to be forever bitter towards her label, SM Entertainment. On an appearance on the talk show "Win Win" years ago, the singer and actress blamed the company for forcing her on a strict diet since her trainee days. Having debuted at a young age of just 14 years old, BoA blames the early dieting for stunting her growth.

More recently, the singer hilariously called out her label on her Instagram for incorrectly stylizing her name as "BOA" instead of "BoA."
5. 5. Jo Jung Chi
Jo Jung Chi called out his label CEO on the broadcast of the popular television show "Star King," for showing favoritism to Kim Yerim: "Hey Yoon Jong Shin!. Take care of me and Muse!" Muse, a singer also signed under Mystic Entertainment then agreed, saying, "That's right."
6. 6. Han Chae Ha
Actress Han Chae Ha is also signed under Mystic Entertainment and she called out her CEO on broadcast, sitting directly across from him on the television program he hosts! It was her first appearance on "Radio Star" and she blamed Yoon Jong Shin for not letting her come on, despite receiving numerous love calls from the show's producers.

She ranted on, saying that she doesn't know what he does as CEO of the entertainment company. The actress shared that the two work out at the same gym and every time he sees her there, he asks her what she's up to. "How can the company CEO not know what work you're doing?" The set burst out laughing when he answered, "You're working out!"
7. 7. Hoya
On an appearance on "Hello Counselor," the INFINITE member and actor took a hilarious jab at his boss, for not allowing him to go home during the holidays. Instead, Hoya said his boss plans a company getaway, telling him, "Even if you go home during the holidays, you don't have anything to do."
8. 8. Baek Ye Rin
Baek Ye Rin took a jab at JYP by writing, "I have a lot of good songs I've written. I want to release an albummmm. So many people are waiting for me! But the adults here are so funny and scary. *Vomit*"

Shortly thereafter, she deleted her Instagram account.
9. 9. Amber
While the f(x) member did not directly call out her label, she worried many fans with this mysterious post on Instagram. Many speculated the comments to be toward SM Entertainment and their lack of promotions for f(x). A fellow member commented in encouragement, "Coala, let's be strong. You know I love you right? We're going to be okay!"
10. 10. Henry
Henry worried his fans with an Instagram post similar to that of his friend Amber, who is also under the same agency, SM Entertainment. Henry seemed to express frustration towards his company, writing in the caption: "Tired. Exhausting. I can't do it alone. A mistake I made since nine years ago. .. What am I supposed to do for from now on?"

He also pleaded to fans to speak out for him, commenting on the post: "I only have my fans left. If you see this message, please speak for me. My agency doesn't listen to me."
