“[Sports Chosun By Lyn] ‘Did we take a picture together?’ BTS’ Bang Si-hyuk, who is the head of the only entertainment company in Korea, has been caught meeting popular BJ Juicy Yeon in the US for the second day in a row. On the 8th, a YouTube channel introducing the streets of the US revealed a video of Chairman Bang Si-hyuk crossing the street with BJ Juicy Yeon and her sister. Chairman Bang Si-hyuk, who boasts assets exceeding 2 trillion won, was seen with the young 28-year-old BJ in LA and was the center of attention in Beverly Hills. In particular, Bang Si-hyuk walking side by side with Juicy Yeon and her sister, who were dressed in revealing outfits, caught people’s attention.
Regarding this, a Hive official stated, ‘He coincidentally met the sister while gathering with friends, gave advice on dealing with impersonators related to the entertainment industry, and later guided them to tourist spots and restaurants in LA.’ The official also explained, ‘The video shows Chairman Bang Si-hyuk asking, ‘Did we take a picture together?” In response to this, netizens expressed various reactions, including disappointment in Bang Si-hyuk for being too casual with them, saying it does not seem like a simple introduction and guidance. Some defended by saying that as he is not married and single, it is not a big deal whom he meets in the US.
Juicy Yeon has been sharing photos of her stay in the US since July 29 on her personal SNS, and she has currently closed all comments. Chairman Bang Si-hyuk’s luxury residence is near the street where he was captured. The luxury house, purchased for 3.65 billion won last year, is known to be a residence of Hollywood stars such as Justin Bieber, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, etc. The house spans three floors, with approximately 309 square meters of living space, including six bedrooms and nine bathrooms.

Recently, Hive’s representative artist BTS’ Suga caused controversy with a drunk driving incident, adding to the ongoing controversies at Hive due to conflicts with its subsidiary, Pledis Entertainment’s CEO, Min Hee-jin. With Suga’s electric scooter drunk driving incident and now the sighting of Chairman Bang Si-hyuk with a BJ, the situation is getting worse for Hive.
