The statements of The National Tax Services were very clear and hinted that YG Entertainment had evaded certain taxes, although minimal compared to the amount of profits that said company generated. Similarly, Yang Hyun Sunk, former CEO of said company, would also be being evaluated for evading taxes:

The 6-month investigation conducted in our four offices and the transition from the tax crime investigation have determined that there is no possibility of prosecution. Therefore, the value of the taxes determined is not a minimum value, although it is not that large compared to YG's sales volume.

On the other hand, said agency has also pointed out that Yang Hyun Sunk is being investigated for illegal gambling and other associated charges. Therefore, it is expected that this character will come to face justice due to the multiple accusations he has against.
