Song Ji Hyo & Ji Suk Jin's label Uzurocks reportedly facing major financial problems

AKP STAFF

Song Ji Hyo and Ji Suk Jin's label Uzurocks is reportedly facing major financial problems.

According to reports on April 5, Uzurocks has let around 10 employees go due to financial difficulties, while others are allegedly leaving over worries about the agency's future. One employee claimed they had not been paid for 2 months and neither has the agency's celebrities. The employee stated, "I haven't been paid in 2 months. For some employees, their insurance policies haven't been paid either. I also didn't receive the year-end settlement refund I should've received along with my salary. Celebrities aren't being paid their appearance or endorsement fees either."

The employee further stated managers working for Uzurocks haven't been paid for over 3 months, adding, "It's a start-up, so it's understandable to have temporary financial issues, but I'm shocked by their attitude. They act as if they're entitled to it. They should've given us prior notice of missed payments and asked for understanding."

It's reported the employees plan to go to the Department of Labor together if they're not paid by April 10 KST. Meanwhile, agency CEO Park Joo Nam, who lives in the US, is unable to be reached for comment.

Stay tuned for updates.

I want Jihyo to go back into acting more. Whether she stays on running man or not I think for her acting career it would be better for her to join an agency that focuses on actors.
