The agency countered the report that BTS is having a conflict with its big hit entertainment company.

JTBC 'Newsroom' on the 9th reported that "BTS is suffering from big hit entertainment and profit sharing issues and is considering legal response."

In response, Big Hit Entertainment said in a press release today that "BTS and parents are not considering any legal action, including litigation against us." It's not clear what that means, but we and BTS are currently discussing some issues that won't affect the exclusive agreement. ”

"After the report, we checked with the members of BTS and their parents, and the parents of BTS had inquired about the legal contents of some of the exclusive contracts related to the video content business two months ago to a law firm in Gangbuk. "It was confirmed that the inquiry did not lead to the actual request at that time, and the law firm did not officially consult."

Big Hit Entertainment emphasized that, as reported, the company and BTS are not trying to take legal action because they have not been able to negotiate a particular issue, but are discussing with us after making a legal inquiry.

BTS agency pointed out that JTBC has exaggerated the report. Big Hit Entertainment said, "I did not confirm the facts. "We showed a suspicious level of coverage to the media that emphasized the issue."
