OMEGA X Members Allegedly Abused by Label SPIRE Entertainment CEO

Recently on October 23, OMEGA X's label SPIRE Entertainment and its CEO became the center of abuse allegations after fans took to their social media to reveal having witnessed the CEO's abuse on the members firsthand.

The incident happened while OMEGA X was in Los Angeles in the United States, where they wrapped up their first-ever world tour CONNECT: Don't Give Up at The Orpheum Theater.

One fan revealed, along with a voice recording, that the SPIRE Entertainment's CEO was verbally and physically abusing the group's members. A loud noise that sounded like a person falling can also be heard in the accompanying voice recording, along with someone shouting for the person to get up.

Another fan had also stepped up to share a similar incident, in which the fan's mother had seen the OMEGA X members being verbally abused by a female staff while they were in Chile earlier this month.

Since then, the two incidents blew up on social media, and quickly became viral. As the abuse allegations reached official media outlets, this prompted SPIRE Entertainment to issue a statement on October 24.

SPIRE Entertainment also said in their statement that OMEGA X and the CEO have "resolved all of their misunderstandings" when they continued their discussion.

Despite this, fans aren't taking too kindly to their statement, and continue to heavily criticize the label for their alleged abuse.

Now, according to an exclusive report by media outlet SBS News, the OMEGA X members did not return home to South Korea when they were scheduled to fly back from Los Angeles on the morning of October 23 local time following their world tour.

SBS News confirmed that OMEGA X's flight was abruptly canceled last minute following the abuse allegations.

"We were discussing canceling the [flight] reservations for three days because the seats on the plane for the members could be mixed with the fans. It is not true that we have stranded the members in the U.S.," the CEO said.

The CEO then claimed that the allegations were made by an anti-fan, and explained that they "usually treat the members respectfully."

"The [abuse] allegations were made by an anti-fan. I was frustrated because I have been working hard, pulling all-nighters but they wouldn't acknowledge or care for it. But I usually treat our members respectfully," the CEO said.
