YG Entertainment CEO Yang Hyun Suk has appealed for his innocence in an email to employees.

In an email sent May 30th, Yang Hyun Suk said, "First of all, I want to tell you how sorry I am. I'm ashamed of the concern I have caused with the recent broadcast reports. I've been away traveling to the countryside for the anniversary of my father's death two years ago and because of this I wasn't able to respond to the recent reports. "

He continued, "The suspicions from the broadcast are not true at all. I have never done anything illegal or anything that would be embarrassing to you. YG has steadily grown over the past 23 years due to your hard work and the efforts that you put towards your dreams and exceptional creativity. I'm in a position where I'm obligated to protect that."

"About a month ago, YG went through a large scale re-organization and announced our will and plans for the future. As your executive producer, I'll focus only on creating content that helps singers. I will not forget and will hold on to that heavy responsibility."

Meanwhile, 'Straight' that aired on May 27th reported that CEO Yang Hyun Suk hosted a dinner party at a high-end restaurant where 25 women and 8 men including 2 Asian financiers were present. In particular, 10 of the women (prostitutes) were mobilized by Madame Jung and among the regular guests invited were Hwang Hana, the only granddaughter of Namyang Dairy Founder.

Yang Hyun Suk, however, drew the line telling the 'Straight' team that there were no prostitution services of any form at the party and that he was only present at the invitation of an acquaintance. Police have launched an internal investigation into Yang Hyun Suk's alleged sexual favors.
