Singer WOODZ (Jo Seung-yeon) has been engulfed in controversy over the recruitment of unpaid staff.

Recently, a post appeared on an online community regarding the recruitment of staff for WOODZ's world tour 'Archive.1' concert in Germany.

According to the notice, those working as volunteers on the day would be randomly assigned tasks such as maintaining audience order, operating MD booths, serving as show runners, or handling meals. Conditions included proficiency in Korean, German, or English; preference for those with K-pop performance experience; and knowledge of lighting and sound. Meals would be provided, and attendees would be allowed to watch the concert.

However, the position is unpaid. It is essentially asking for free volunteer work. Despite this, it is reported that the recruitment application period has already closed.

Ticket prices for WOODZ's concert are approximately 420,000 won for VIP seats, 190,000 won for priority entry tickets, and 150,000 won for general admission.

In response, StarNews contacted WOODZ's agency, EDAM Entertainment, but the public relations officer has remained silent.
