K-pop boy group Block B member Park Kyung has been threatened with legal action after accusing some artists of concocting sales numbers to manipulate music charts.
Park Kyung wrote on his Twitter account on Nov. 24: "I want to do bulk buying like Vibe, like Song Ha-ye, like Lim Jae-hyun, like Jeon Sang-keun, like Jang Deok-cheol and like Hwang In-wook."
His agency KQ Entertainment later released an apology, saying Park did not intend to defame or accuse certain artists but wanted to criticize the music charts system.
However, the six artists Park mentioned have released a statement saying they will take a legal action against him.
