On the 10th, JYP Entertainment stated, "Recently, false recruitment text messages impersonating JYP Entertainment have been continuously circulated, so we ask for your caution."

The false recruitment messages impersonate JYP or domestic and international recruitment agencies, promising high earnings by using tasks such as "music album ranking increase," "writing reviews," and "clicking likes" as bait to induce contact.

JYP emphasized, "All such content is false. If you receive such messages, please do not respond or inquire under any circumstances and delete them immediately," adding, "All official recruitment information is provided only through JYP's official website and recruitment platforms. JYP does not provide recruitment information via text messages or emails."

Furthermore, they stated, "We will take all possible legal actions against those who send impersonation messages," and urged anyone who receives such messages to report them to the nearest police station or relevant authorities.
