Park Bom deletes Instagram post announcing lawsuit against YG founder Yang Hyun-Suk

Park Bom deletes Instagram post announcing lawsuit against YG founder Yang Hyun-Suk

In a shocking turn of events, former 2NE1 member Park Bom stirred massive controversy after posting — and then quickly deleting — an alleged legal document announcing her intent to sue YG Entertainment founder Yang Hyun-Suk. The lawsuit, as shown in the post, accused Yang of fraud and embezzlement, claiming he withheld Park Bom’s rightful earnings from her time as a YG artist.

The now-deleted Instagram post featured what looked like an official complaint document written in Korean. It listed Yang Hyun-Suk and YG Entertainment as the accused parties and detailed allegations that he failed to pay Park Bom her due income from album sales, stage performances, television appearances, and brand endorsements. The bizarre part was the enormous sum mentioned — reportedly an incomprehensible figure running into trillions of won — which immediately drew skepticism and alarm from fans and media outlets alike.

According to the post, the amount was cited as “1002003004006007001000034 ‘64272e trillion won,” a figure that roughly translates to 1 undecillion won or around 4.5 quadrillion US dollars — a number so absurdly high it dwarfs the world’s total GDP. Fans were left wondering whether the post was a serious accusation, a hacked account, or a cry for help.

Shortly after the post began circulating, it was deleted from Park Bom’s page. However, screenshots and screen recordings had already gone viral across social media, sparking widespread discussion and concern.
In response, her current management, D-Nation Entertainment, issued a cryptic and worrying statement to South Korean media outlet Sports Kyunghyang, saying,
“Park Bom is someone that we cannot control either. We are looking into the lawsuit against Yang Hyun-Suk.”

The statement raised more questions than it answered, with fans expressing distress over the label’s wording and Park Bom’s possible mental state.

Neither Yang Hyun-Suk nor YG Entertainment has commented on the claims so far. Whether the lawsuit has any legal validity remains uncertain, but this incident has reignited debate over the treatment of idols, financial transparency in entertainment agencies, and the pressures faced by artists navigating fame and personal turmoil.
