Police question YG Entertainment associates to investigate Seungri's escort allegations

AKP STAFF

Police have reportedly questioned YG Entertainment associates to investigate Seungri's ongoing escort allegations.

As previously reported, Seungri is suspected of procuring prostitutes for overseas investors and his acquaintances on multiple occasions. According to JTBC on April 27, police have called in YG Entertainment associates to investigate hotel room charges that amount to several thousand Won on the agency's credit card.  

The credit card charges are reportedly related to the 'Burning Sun' club, and police are looking into whether YG Entertainment employees had a hand in misappropriation or embezzlement of funds. In December of 2015, Seungri used YG Entertainment's credit card to pay off a bill of 30 million Won ($25,886.40 USD) for a Christmas party where the former Big Bang member allegedly mediated prostitution for overseas investors as well.

Police investigation found the 'Burning Sun' manager received 3 million Won ($2,588 USD) a month as payment. YG Entertainment has also stated the hotel bill was paid by Seungri's personal use, and in such cases, labelmates would later settle the bill with the label.  


However, police are planning to investigate further into YG Entertainment's possible connection to the case.

I really hope YG has no connection to this Seungri mess.

It could be a devistating blow to all YG Entertainment artists.

They would have to suffer for others actions & be innocent bystanders.

Blackpink is on top of their game, Winner is planning their comeback soon, Park Bom just dropped her comeback, Ikon is finally getting the recognition they deserve in the US & what about the badass awesome CL!

I am praying for the best in the end results for all YG artists....including the BigBang members that will soon be released for serving in the service.

if anything....God forbid it goes bad for YG......Psy should bring them all on board at PNATION.

If he could cover that expense.

hoping for the best

And now you see how YG 'recycling and destroying' documents almost a month ago could affect the case.
