Police in South Korea have raided the offices of entertainment company HYBE as part of a probe over allegations of unfair share trading involving the company chairman, a source familiar with the matter said.
According to media reports, the country's financial regulator has referred the chairman of HYBE, Bang Si-hyuk, to prosecutors to investigate his activities during the company's stock market listing.
Ahead of the 2020 Initial Public Offering (IPO), Bang and three other executives were accused of misleading investors into selling their shares to a company they secretly controlled and then cashing in once HYBE went public according to the media reports.
HYBE, best known for managing global superstars BTS, says it is fully cooperating with authorities including the police, for "fact-finding efforts".
“We will take the necessary time to thoroughly demonstrate that the IPO was carried out in full compliance with laws and regulations,” the company said in a statement.
