TAN’s Agency, Think Entertainment, Fires Employees And More After Kim Ho Joong’s DUI Incident
Previously, Korea’s top trot singer, Kim Ho Joong, was arrested after reportedly being involved in a hit-and-run DUI incident. He recently admitted to his crime, although he denied it for five days. A few days ago, his manager confessed to the absurd method he used to cover up Kim’s crime, swallowing Kim’s car’s black box memory card.
Now, his company, Think Entertainment, also home to K-Pop group TAN, has issued a statement regarding the incident.
It has been announced that the Think Entertainment CEO will be replaced, and the company will undergo several internal changes. There are also discussions with artists regarding their contracts.
Hello. This is Think Entertainment.
We apologize again for disappointing many people with Kim Ho Joong’s incident. All executives and employees involved in the incident have resigned from Think Entertainment and the CEO will be replaced.
We also apologize to our artists regarding this incident. We are considering whether we will be able to continue operating the management business in the future. With our artists and their opinions as the top priority, we intend to waive all conditions and terminate any exclusive contracts effective immediately if asked.
We will do our best to take follow-up measures so that there is no additional damage to all partners affected by this incident.
We would like to apologize once again to everyone who has suffered damage due to our company and Kim Ho Joong.
— Think Entertainment
