Yuehua Entertainment’s CEO Responds To EVERGLOW Yiren’s Claims Of Never Being Paid — Sparks Criticism
Yuehua Entertainment CEO’s comments regarding EVERGLOW‘s lack of payment since debuting sparks criticism.
EVERGLOW gained attention after member Yiren claimed that she had never been paid since the group debuted.
On April 15, Yuehua Entertainment CEO Du Hua made an appearance to promote an upcoming variety program, and she addressed the comments made by Yiren. In the clip, the CEO explained that they had invested a lot of money in EVERGLOW but the money hasn’t been returned.
Wang Yiren was trending a couple of days ago, right? She said she didn’t receive any payments even 6 years after debut. I must explain this. I asked about her and the company’s situation. When she debuted, the company invested a relatively large sum of money, so that money hasn’t been returned to the company yet.

When the clip was posted, netizens criticized the comments, explaining that EVERGLOW has had a lack of comebacks, which has limited their chance to earn money, and it is still the company’s fault.
Yuehua never had a group with billions of streams like Everglow. How tf can't money be returned when you have multiple hits? Atp it just means du hua is fucking lame nothing more, she should stop ruining kpop groups https://t.co/wBSEPUQgkR

Also not to be the devils advocate but I already expected this kind of answer from yuehua . Specially the first 4 comebacks Everglow’s budget was literally big 4 level , but they were not making big 4 money and yes that is yuehuas fault

so maybe you should give them good promotions after seeing really big success on first fourth albums??? but you did nothing. so people start forgetting everglow (unf), so that's why you haven't returned money yet (but still i can't believe it) https://t.co/GIc0PpaPwQ

and of course the solution to that is to give them less comebacks, less promotion, less albums, less merch, and just overall less opportunities to make money because that makes total sense https://t.co/NrHHI9bQs9

Acting like they're a poor nugu company, girl cut the act y'all just want to have a reason to not pay your artists cause you're greedy af.
If you're not going to do your best to promote a group and make them get famous and instead ruin them at their peak then don't debut them???… https://t.co/0wy5NId5OM— ämpi⭑.ᐟ (@glownoos) April 15, 2025
