YG, 블랙핑크 팀 재계약에 멤버별 수십억 베팅… 그룹 활동 준비 중

YG엔터테인먼트가 지난해 12월 자사 최대 지식재산권(IP)인 블랙핑크와의 '팀 활동' 재계약을 성사하면서 멤버 1인당 거액을 베팅한 것으로 나타났습니다. 오늘(22일) 금융감독원 전자공시시스템 사업보고서에 따르면 YG는 지난해 무형자산 전속계약금으로 약 412억 원을 취득했습니다. 상장 엔터사는 통상 아티스트 전속계약금을 '무형자산'으로 일단 인식한 뒤, 계약 기간에 맞춰서 정액법(해마다 일정액을 계산)을 적용해 비용으로 인식합니다. YG는 지난해 12월 블랙핑크 멤버 4인 전원에 대해 그룹 전속 계약을 체결했습니다. 412억 원이라는 전속계약금 규모를 고려할 때, 다른 IP 계약 사례가 포함됐더라도 몸값이 압도적으로 많은 블랙핑크 멤버들과 1인당 수십억 원에 계약했을 것으로 추정됩니다. 다만 블랙핑크 멤버들의 계약금은 1인당 100억 원은 넘지 않은 것으로 알려졌습니다. YG는 이에 대해 작년에 블랙핑크뿐만 아니라 다수 IP에 대한 재계약 및 신규 계약이 있었다 며 계약 일체 사항을 공개할 수는 없지만, 해당 액수는 블랙핑크만의 계약금으로 볼 수는 없다 고 밝혔습니다. 블랙핑크는 팀 활동에 한해서는 YG와 다시 손을 잡았지만, 멤버 개별로는 4명 모두 각자 홀로서기를 택했습니다. 제니, 리사, 지수는 각각 개인 기획사 오드 아틀리에, 라우드, 블리수를 차렸고, 로제 역시 YG를 떠나 독자 활동을 모색 중입니다. YG가 개인이 아닌 팀 활동에만 거액의 계약금을 쏟아부은 만큼, 앞으로 폭넓은 블랙핑크 활동이 예정돼 있을 것이라는 관측이 나옵니다. YG 관계자는 4월 베이비몬스터가 공식 데뷔하면서 활발한 활동을 전개하고, 트레저는 일본을 넘어 아시아로 그 활동 무대를 넓혀 성장을 이어 나간다는 계획 이라며 더불어 블랙핑크의 그룹 활동 계획도 준비 중 이라고 전했습니다. (사진=YG엔터테인먼트 제공, 연합뉴스)

[SBS Star] K.WILL Says Elementary School Student Fan He Met 11 Years Ago Turned Out to Be SOMI

Singer K.WILL recalled meeting K-pop artist SOMI eleven years ago when she was an elementary school student. On the March 12 episode of SBS' talk show 'Strong Heart VS', K.WILL guested. During the show, K.WILL said he met a future celebrity when he appeared on KBS' sports game show 'Let's Go! Dream Team' eleven years ago. We went to an elementary school, formed teams with the students, and had to do a series of missions with them. When we arrived, the students there cheered loudly. Some kids brought a girl over to me and said she really liked me. She was such an adorable little girl, and she was all blushing. Her friends shouted that she was a K-pop agency trainee. She seemed to be very shy. I told her, 'You're so cute, thank you!', and left. The singer continued, Singer Seo In Guk was on the show that day, and the host asked him to do aegyo (a cute act involving a cute voice, facial expressions, or gestures) in front of the students. Using a baby voice, Seo In Guk went, 'How old is In Guk? In Guk's 27!'. When it was my turn, I decided to do the same aegyo. I was like, 'I'm Hyung-soo (K.WILL's real name)! Hyung-soo is 33!'. Suddenly, murmuring noises came from the students, and the atmosphere between them changed. Some boys shouted, 'She's crying here!'. I recognized the girl in tears. She was the one I spoke with earlier. When I asked her why she was crying, she responded, 'Why are you so old?'. , K.WILL remarked, and the entire studio burst into laughter. That's when I realized my age could unintentionally offend others, even though it wasn't my fault. , the singer playfully commented, making everyone laugh even more. A few years later, I attended the wrap party for KBS' drama 'Descendants of the Sun'. During the party, a tall Caucasian man I had never met approached me and started talking to me. While I was wondering who he was, the guy asked, 'Don't you remember?', then showed me a picture of me and the girl at the elementary school who cried. , the singer recounted. K.WILL revealed that the girl who burst into tears after finding out how old he was was SOMI, and the man at the party was her father, Matthew Douma, who made a cameo appearance in 'Descendants of the Sun'. When I first met SOMI after her debut, I asked her, 'You remember me, don't you? Why were you crying back then?'. She replied, 'I guess I was too young at that time.'. , the singer recalled, and burst into laughter. (Credit= SBS Strong Heart VS) (SBS Star)

[SBS Star] I Wanted to Rest So Much that I Wished I Got Injured BTS V Talks About Suffering Burnout

V of K-pop boy group BTS shared that he wanted to rest so badly from burnout that he once even wished that he got injured. On September 11, a new episode of another member of BTS SUGA's YouTube show 'SUCHITA' was posted on the group's YouTube channel. This episode featured SUGA having a conversation over some drinks and snacks with V. During their talk, V told SUGA that 2018 was the toughest year for him, saying, I think it's my first time saying this out loud, but I was experiencing burnout in 2018. He continued, I'm not sure how many people would have understood me if I had told them that I was experiencing burnout back then, because we were receiving tremendous love around the world at that time. SUGA responded, Yeah, there were definitely times when we were just too exhausted. In 2018, it was easy for me to tell that you were struggling inside. While suffering burnout, V revealed that these were the thoughts he had: The burnout lasted longer than I expected, and I started thinking, 'All the other members seem fine. They also look as if they are enjoying every bit of life now. Why am I the only one experiencing burnout? Is it because my pace and mindset are different to theirs?' Comparing my situation to the rest of you guys' was difficult to resist. He claimed that as BTS got busier, he was more worn out, I was way too tired of everything that I couldn't get rid of the thought, 'I want to at least take a day off and do nothing for that day.' Following the shooting of 'FAKE LOVE' music video, I asked our agency staff if I could take a day off, since we only had dance practice left until our comeback. But I couldn't, as our comeback was right around the corner, and it was more important than anything else for me to learn all the moves before that. At that point, my mind was filled with negative ideas. I honestly couldn't bring myself to do anything more. So, I kept on trying to find ways for me to take some rest. Unfortunately though, there were none. The only way for me to rest was to get injured. So, I even thought to myself, 'Maybe I should get injured on purpose.' , he added. Upon finishing his sentence about wanting to purposely injure himself so that he could get some rest, V shared that he deeply regrets thinking that way in the past.
