The Yongsan Police Station in Seoul announced on the 22nd that they plan to indict CL without detention on charges of violating the Popular Culture and Arts Industry Development Act. The corporation she operated will also be indicted. CL is accused of operating the corporation for over five years without reporting it to the authorities after establishing the one-person agency "Very Cherry" in 2020.

According to the Popular Culture and Arts Industry Development Act, operating a business without registering with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism is punishable by imprisonment for up to two years or a fine of up to 20 million won.

I feel like we hear a lot of idols getting in trouble for this.

operating an unregistered entertainment agency isn't exactly a bright idea. especially in sk!
that being said, someone obviously spilled the beans on her. 5 years is a somewhat extended period of time.
I guess if Alpha had blown up, this sort of prosecution would've come sooner.

Many agencies were flagged in September of last year and had until the end of the year to register.
She obviously elected to go for a beer!

That's what I was thinking! There was a pretty clear "get your paperwork in order" warning and I guess she decided not to!
