BTS agency raided over fraud claims

Industry giant: A woman taking photos in front of the signage for HYBE, the agency behind K-pop megastars BTS, displayed outside the company's headquarters in Seoul. — AFP HYBE, the agency behind K-pop superstars BTS, was raided by police in connection with alleged fraudulent trading involving its founder Bang Si-hyuk, investigators said. 'We are conducting a search and seizure at HYBE's headquarters in Yongsan district,' Seoul police said in a brief statement. Bang, the mastermind behind BTS, is under investigation over allegations that he misled early investors to reap illicit profits from the company's 2020 initial public offering. He is accused of gaining around 200 billion won (RM613.3mil) through the process, according to local reports. HYBE has denied Bang committed any wrongdoing. 'We will dutifully clarify that the listing at the time was carried out in compliance with all relevant laws and regulations,' the company said in early July. It pledged 'active cooperation' with authorities to get to the bottom of the case. Bang allegedly misled HYBE's early investors, who held pre-IPO shares, by telling them in 2019 he had no plans to take the company public. He then allegedly encouraged them to sell their shares to private equity funds when in fact IPO plan was in the making. HYBE went public in 2020, after the shareholders sold their stakes. The 52-year-old is accused of secretly striking a deal with the private equity funds to receive a portion of the profits they made from selling shares following the IPO. The investigation comes as all seven BTS members complete their mandatory military service and prepare for a comeback next year. HYBE announced this month that a new album and world tour were scheduled for 2026. — AFP

Dancer Lee Kai Yin shares first photo of face since Mirror accident in 2022

Lee Kai Yin (right) uploaded a recent photo of himself (left) on social media on July 23. Photos: Lee Kai Yin/Instagram Hong Kong dancer Lee Kai Yin has shared a close-up photo of himself for the first time in three years. The 30-year-old, also known as Ah Mo, was critically injured in July 2022 when a giant LED screen fell on him during a concert by popular Hong Kong boy band Mirror at the Hong Kong Coliseum. Lee suffered a severe spinal injury and was in critical condition for more than a month. Reports then said he faced the possibility of being paralysed from the neck down. Hong Kong media said he has left the territory to continue his treatment overseas. On July 23, Lee posted on Instagram several photos, including one of himself in a wheelchair. Although filters were used on the face, the tattoos on his chest and one of his arms matched those in old photos of him. A scar was seen near his collarbone in the latest photo, which was probably caused by a tracheostomy tube in his neck. 'It's me!' he wrote in English, before adding in Chinese: 'I was encouraged by what the daughter of an optical shop owner said yesterday, so I'm going to share some of the little things which made me feel good lately and see if I can pick up energy from you all.' He posted a picture of the items on his table – including K-pop girl group NewJeans' official light stick and three Teletubbies figures – two photos of a sunset and two artificial intelligence-generated pictures of his cats. His girlfriend So Ching, a former member of Hong Kong girl group Collar, shared his post on Instagram Stories, writing: 'If I were half as strong as him.' In December 2024, Lee posted on Instagram his first photo of himself in hospital showing only his hand, while his father, pastor Derek Li, was beside him. 'Probably the only human being who loves me so much and actually cares about my every nanometer bit of improvement every single day,' Lee wrote then. – The Straits Times/Asia News Network
