While singer Kang Min-kyung, who runs the shopping mall Abiemua, was embroiled in a controversy over the fact that she was giving employees unreasonably low salaries compared to their level of work, it was known that she received office equipment as a sponsor.
Min-Kyung Kang revealed the inside of her company's office last year on her own YouTube channel.
In the video, Kang Min-kyung said, "I wanted to give my team members a nice desk as a gift when I moved in. I went to company D's website and looked at it, thinking about changing it, but since there are a lot of team members, it would be expensive to buy all of them." I was able to receive it," he said, revealing the fact of sponsorship.
In addition, she said that the air purifier that Kang Min-kyung installed in her office was also a 'sponsorship' of her product.
On the other hand, the desk that Kang Min-kyung uses at her company was controversial because it was known that it was a German brand product worth 7 million won.
In 2020, she founded the women's fashion brand Abie Mua.
Recently, it became controversial as it was known that Abiemuah offered an annual salary of only 25 million won while hiring CS (Customer Service) experienced employees.
In response, Kang Min-kyung said that she was the mistake of the employee who posted the job posting, and she explained, "25 million won is the salary of a new employee, not experience."
However, many netizens criticized Kang Min-kyung's management style, saying that according to the job posting site, the average salary of Abiemuah's employees is not high, and that the rate of resignation last year exceeded 50%.
