Bang Si Hyuk Urged To Step Down As HYBE Chairman By Furious Netizens After Recent Exposé
HYBE founder and chairman Bang Si Hyuk is in hot waters following a recent report by Ilgan Sports on October 29, which revealed his direct involvement in the infamous internal reports that have stirred controversy in the industry.
While HYBE’s CEO Lee Jae Sang has already issued an apology, taking responsibility for the leaked documents, the new revelations place Bang Si Hyuk at the center of the controversy. The report suggests that Bang personally oversaw the document’s distribution, specifically ordering it to be sent to a newly appointed executive.
Though it remains uncertain if Bang initiated the report’s creation, Korean media have underlined his role in disseminating it, even though he was reportedly aware of its provocative content.
The report has sparked an intense response from Korean netizens who are furious with the HYBE chairman’s behavior. They continue to question Bang’s absence from the ongoing National Assembly audit. Many have asked him to leave the United States and come back to Korea to face criticism head-on. Some have even called for his resignation, asking him to “take responsibility.”
- “He’ll never take responsibility.”
- “Ilgan Sports is doing a good job. But why isn’t Bang Si Hyuk showing up anywhere?”
- “Does he think the public is stupid or something?”
- “Take responsibility and step down.”
- “Like they said during the audit, he’s busy giggling around in the U.S. while causing social controversy.”
- “What’s Bang still doing in the U.S.?”
- “It’s definitely Bang’s responsibility.”
- “Why isn’t he attending the government audit? After everything he’s done?”
- “What gives him the nerve to act so shamelessly?”
