HYBE Revealed to Be Agency 'Backing' Sojang; Used YouTuber's Videos Against Idols

Sojang, the infamous YouTuber who attacked K-pop idols with malicious content, is revealed to have been backed by HYBE following an audit.

Recently, the National Assembly summoned HYBE executives for a state audit. Here, they reportedly retrieved 18,000-page internal documents containing awful comments and insights from K-Netz and employees, attacking other labels' artists.

In a recently revealed page from the report, a shocking revelation infuriated K-pop stans, as it was stated how HYBE used Sojang as one of its sources to collect data about "rival" labels'
idols.

In the past, the YouTube channel "Taldeok Camp," run by Sojang, became notorious for attacking various K-pop idols with hateful and malicious content, including IVE Jang Wonyoung, Kang Daniel, EXO Suho, aespa Karina, and more.

During her time, she announced that there was a huge company that joined her VIP/premium membership, hinting that it could be HYBE or the "Big 3" SM, JYP, and YG.

With the internal report, fans and netizens confirmed that it was HYBE, given that they were closely monitoring the channel for more sources that they could allegedly use for viral marketing strategies.

Learning about this, HYBE artist stans, particularly ARMYs, are disgusted considering that BTS V was one of Sojang's victims. Fans are stating that it now makes sense why the idol sued the YouTuber himself, while the label remained silent about it.
