JYP Entertainment fined for illegal use of its New York office
JYP Entertainment received another fine for the irregular use of their office in New York, United States. It was reported today that the agency's office received another violation notice after it was found out that they have used their first floor as a music studio.
JYP Entertainment's building in New York is composed of three floors and is only allowed for office use as stated on the city's Environment Control Board. The agency may receive a fine between $1,200 to $10,000 for the violation.
The case is revealed to be pending with a hearing scheduled on November 1st. It is also speculated that Park Jinyoung, C.E.O of the company, may not be able to avoid the fines this time. JYP Entertainment already received 8 violations since 2010 and is estimated to have paid at least $15,000 for it. They were previously cited after it was found out that they have used the space as a housing unit for the Wonder Girls.

Two years ago the Herald published articles based on what the Wonder Girls English teacher reported. The girls were living in firetraps without insurance. I think JYPE denied it, but it turned out to be true. I think one article was "Wonder Girls Ill-treated" and the other was something like "JYP admits Wonder Girls lack insurance." How much money does this guy make? he can't do the right thing? Maybe this is why American companies won't work with him.
