We will prepare preventative measures to ensure that such a concerning event does not happen again." We are currently greatly disconcerted over 'A's actions, taking ill-advantage of an artist's trust we feel the significant weight of the responsibility and the misdirection of this.

'A' is no longer an employee of the company. “Due to Lisa's wishes to bring the matter to a settlement quietly, as 'A' was a manager whom Lisa trusted 'A' has repaid a portion of their debt and will be repaying the remainder of the amount accordingly through a repayment plan.

YG Entertainment confirmed the news with a statement that reads, "after an internal investigation, we have learned that Lisa was scammed by her former manager, 'A'.” Inside sources revealed that Lisa is currently struggling to deal with fear and anxiety that came after the betrayal. Korean media outlet Market News reported that the manager was a long-time employee at the South Korean entertainment company, YG Entertainment and has been managing the group since their debut. While the name of the manager was not revealed, the now-former manager known as “A” took advantage of the singer’s trust and took the money that he promised would be used for real estate investments, and allegedly blew it all on gambling. Lisa from BLACKPINK was reportedly scammed of approximately RM3.2 million (1 billion KRW) by her ex-manager. K-pop fans have always been protective over their favourite bands and groups, but BLACKPINK fans are angry now after member Lisa was scammed by her former manager.
