"I couldn't earn a single won from music streaming royalties because of this damn contract."
Hip-hop group Epik High expressed extreme anger toward Woorim Entertainment (hereinafter Woorim Ent).
On the 21st, Epik High (Tablo, Mithra, TuC) released content on their official YouTube channel showing them excavating a secret warehouse.
On that day, Epik High recalled their time at YG Entertainment, stating, "Ten years ago, when we left YG, we hurriedly packed all our belongings and everything in our studio and office into a warehouse and switched to being independent. We don't know what's in the warehouse. We came here to play a treasure hunt."

After opening the warehouse, Epik High discovered their own merchandise, fashion items worn during their YG days, and diaries. Immersed in nostalgia, they shared the stories behind these items.
However, what truly shocked subscribers was the discovery of an exclusive contract drafted early in their debut. Epik High debuted in October 2003 after signing a contract with Woorim Ent, a newly established agency at the time, and releasing their first full album, "Map of the Human Soul."
Upon seeing the exclusive contract with Woorim Ent, Tablo exclaimed, "Oh my god. This is huge. Before Woorim (agency)," unable to contain his surprise. He then added, "September 23, 2003. Because of this contract..." and cursed.
The reason was that they had not received proper royalty settlements from Woorim Ent at the time. Tablo stated, "I made 'Fly,' but I didn't get a single won. Because of this damn contract, we didn't earn a single won from music streaming. And yet, they got so angry as if we were eating shrimp," publicly firing shots at Woorim Ent.
In response, TuC laughed, saying, "I had this one. This is huge," to which Tablo retorted, "This is the one that should be hung up."
