A broadcast insider stated, "Not only B.A.P, but group A under the agency TS Entertainment has attended multiple events and released their album, but they have hardly received any of the profits from it... Despite doing a considerable amount of activities including university festivals and more, they are currently receiving a monthly income of around 700,000 KRW (~633 USD) and are helping out with composing and music production internally... They hardly received any revenue details and financial statements... Popular group B also had issues with income distribution, and every time the members complained, the agency temporarily resolved things by giving them gifts."
A TS Entertainment PR rep denied these claims, responding, "It is not true... Group A didn't participate in many events... Although there might have been cases when we personally gifted them, that does not factor into the matter of income distribution."
Whether or not the insiders are referring to Untouchable or SECRET, the other groups under TS Entertainment, financial transparency seems to be a common issue for all of the agency artists.
