The business investor from Malaysia who was at a dinner event with YG Entertainment’s head Yang HyunSuk and PSY, is reportedly a man who is on Interpol’s wanted list.
Yang HyunSuk is currently suspected of soliciting prostitutes for this man, while Yang, YG Entertainment, and PSY have all denied the accusations, saying that they attended the event to have a meal together and nothing more. In addition, YG Entertainment has admitted that prostitutes were actually present during the dinner gathering, but the agency itself and Yang were not involved in any way of arranging sexual services to the investors, claiming whatever happened that night happened naturally.
The Malaysian business investor, currently known as Jho Low, was first introduced to Yang HyunSuk through PSY. According to various reports, Jho Low is wanted by Interpol after allegedly acquiring $4.5 billion of national funds through his close relationship with former prime minister of Malaysia, Najib Razak.
The New Straits Times has reported:
“Jho Low has become a central figure in the global 1MDB scandal and charged in Malaysia and elsewhere over related offences.”
In addition, the agency has also revealed that there are currently many people who want to see Jho Low brought to justice back on his home soil.
“The media advisor to the prime minister acknowledged that many Malaysians wanted to see Jho Low captured and brought home to face trial here over charges related to the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) corruption scandal.”
Jho Low at the moment it seems is under the radar.

Unfortunately for Psy's employees, P-Nation is now being referred to as "Prostitute Nation" by netizens.

Low Taek Jho, a Malaysian fugitive sought by authorities in Malaysia, Singapore and the US in connection with the 1MDB scandal, denied allegations Wednesday that he had attended a dinner gathering arranged by Yang Hyun-suk, head of K-pop powerhouse YG Entertainment.
The MBC programme "Straight" aired late Monday the allegations that Yang hosted dinner parties and procured sexual services for two wealthy Southeast Asian investors in July 2014. One of the investors was reported to be Low, who was central to the scandal in which US$4.5 billion (S$6.2 billion) was allegedly embezzled from the state investment company.
"Mr. Low is a friend of Psy, and through him met Yang Hyun-suk," a spokesman for Low said in a statement released through his US attorneys. "He was never involved in, nor aware of, any conduct of the kind alleged in the MBC 'Straight' report."
The police began the probe into suspicions that the other investor -- a Thai man who has close ties to Yang -- raped a woman last year. The Thai national, who is known as Bob and is reportedly staying in Thailand, has not responded to a police summons.
READ ALSOThe probe came after the TV programme aired an interview with the victim.
The victim said on the programme that she had lost consciousness after a few drinks at the club Burning Sun last December. When she opened her eyes, she was in a hotel room, she added.
Separately, police also opened an investigation into Yang.
At the dinner party for Low and Bob, there were 25 women, including more than 10 prostitutes from an adult entertainment establishment with close ties to YG, and eight men accompanying Yang, according to the TV show. YG has denied the allegations as "groundless."
Police are reviewing whether to call in for questioning Hwang Ha-na, granddaughter of the Namyang Dairy founder, as well as Madam Chung -- who allegedly supplied prostitutes for the dinner gatherings -- as they were also part of the dinner gatherings arranged by Yang.
