Police Raid YG Entertainment Headquarters Over G-Dragon Copyright Case
South Korean police have carried out a raid on YG Entertainment’s headquarters in Seoul as part of an ongoing investigation into alleged copyright infringement involving K-pop star G-Dragon and the company’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk.
The case traces back to a complaint filed in late 2024 by a composer identified only as “Mr. A,” who claims a song he created was used without his consent more than a decade ago. According to him, the track was reworked into a medley performed during G-Dragon’s 2009 concert and later included on his 2010 live album Shine a Light.
This is the second police raid on YG in connection to the matter, with investigators said to be gathering documents and questioning individuals linked to the song’s production. Authorities have not released further details, but confirmed the investigation is still active.
YG Entertainment has rejected the accusations, insisting the issue stems from a misunderstanding. They explained that during the 2009 concert preparations, there were two completely different songs sharing the same title, which may have caused the confusion.
It has been noted that the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) and British American Tobacco Nigeria Foundation (BATNF) plan to renew their partnership in agribusiness.
The new project is to involve youth in the agriculture business, widen their horizons, and educate them about the agritech sector.
The general manager shared that “The foundation is not only providing grants but also building a system of mentorship, structure, and support that enables corps members to see agribusiness as a serious enterprise pathway.” The plan is to use the NYSC platform to engage youths.
Idi Mukhtar Maiha, Minister of Livestock Development, has revealed the government’s intention of placing women in the livestock transformation agenda that they have in store for Nigeria.
During a recent event, he praised women, describing them as the backbone of the country, and shared that the country will keep on needing their support, hence the inclusion of the agenda team.
He also praised the First Lady for the impact she has made in the country so far and her advocacy for women’s empowerment.
