In 2019, two members of TRCNG released proof of being abused by their agency.
TRCNG’s Wooyeop And Taeseon Release Multiple Proof Of Abuse And Mismanagement By Their Agency
Member Taeson recently appeared on the survival show Fantasy Boys, but is set to debut in the group called UNNAME. In a recent content on the YouTube channel, he was very honest about the abuse he faced in the past, both as a trainee and after he debuted.
Taesan revealed that while he had experienced verbal abuse, it was nothing compared to the physical abuse that happened every day.
The idol shared that things like vacuums, bats, or broken mops were in the practice room for “physical abuse.”
The trainees would also have money demanded from them to buy things or make them feel like they had to get them drinks if they had them.
While it was easy to think others their age would say that if they were short of money, Taeson revealed it was the CEO and some of their choreography teachers who acted in this way.
Taeson explained that he just endured it because he wanted to be an idol so much, and none of the members told their parents.
Those within the agency said it was “normal” and Taeson said he was brainwashed into believing this.
After debuting, the abuse continued.
One day, one of the member’s actions was misunderstood, and he was severely assaulted, even throwing a vacuum, pushing him to the wall, and strangling him.
He tried to get away, but Taesan felt sorry because they couldn’t do anything.
Taesan and fellow member Wooyeop filed for a lawsuit. All the members did it initially but eight pulled out because they were scared.
It showcases the dark sides of the K-Pop industry, especially as the company TS Entertainment, which was home to groups like B.A.P, Secret, and many more.
