They desperately wanted to multiply the numbers of their groups really fast to rival the "family branding" of other big companies like SM so they kept acquiring companies 4-5 years ago. But look at them now โบ๏ธ
When HYBE acquired the U.S. entertainment company Ithaca, the domestic media hyped it up, calling it "sharing a table with Justin Bieber" and "a stepping stone for global expansion."
But when the lid was lifted, this is what came out.
Ithaca's actual net assets were 70 billion won. The amount HYBE paid was 1.2 trillion won. And that's not the end of it. They even took on 120 billion won in debt that the previous owner, Scooter Braun, was supposed to repay.
Scooter Braun had bought Taylor Swift's album copyrights with borrowed money and then sold them off. He pocketed half the sale proceeds, leaving the debt behind. That debt is what HYBE ended up shouldering.
HYBE poured 74% of its spare cash into this acquisition and borrowed an additional 560 billion won. It's as if most of the money earned from BTS flowed straight to the U.S.
New Daily directly asked HYBE Chairman Bang Si-hyuk about this. The message was read. No reply came.
