Recently, the Korean financial management themed YT channel “Moneygraphy”updated the video, mentioning that JYP’s stock price has increased 50 times in the past 10 years, but YG’s stock price has barely changed. The reason is that YG often gets into trouble and the frequency of launching new people is too low, resulting in limited room for upward growth and frequent declines. However, it may fall to the bottom, causing external shareholders to think that investment is higher risk.

Although YG has BIGBANG and BLACKPINK, BIGBANG often gets into trouble and newcomers are unable to succeed. JYP not only has TWICE, but also launched 2PM in 2008, GOT7 in 2014, and Stray Kids in 2018, all of which were very successful and are currently preparing for the next group. JYP has a short album release cycle and multiple and stable revenue sources, which gives people the impression that they are indeed capable and know how to attract fans.

When BIGBANG was popular, people gave people the impression of Hip-Hop, resistance, and freedom. However, with the emergence of a large number of programs such as “Showcase Me The Money”, the public has gradually become tired of Hip-Hop in recent years. They feel that they “show off their money every day but Don’t pay taxes” , I started to think that Hip-Hop is not cool. For today’s idols and musicians, although swag is also important, it is more important to comply with moral standards.

Summary: Moral hazard affects the value of the portfolio and the company. From all aspects, YG is not optimistic…

Comments from Korean netizens:
1. It turns out that the moral part really has an impact…
2. That’s right…
3. If nothing else, it’s really weird to stop the follow-up work just because the boss filed a lawsuit. Will the entire company be shut down every time something happens to the boss in the future?
4. The biggest problem of YG is that it does not release albums on time and has no idea of selling things.
5. The best thing about JYP is that it releases albums as planned. Although this is basic, few entertainment companies can actually do it.
6. YG from boss to The singer’s image is all…
7. It’s amazing that it hasn’t collapsed after the Burning Sun incident
. 8. As a shareholder, I can see that (JYP) will continue to make money. Even if they can’t be a hit every time, there are still many singers who have reached the top and will continue to act (making the company make money); new groups that are launched according to the cycle also act on time and do not rely too much on a single group. The exact opposite is YG, I can’t see that they want to buy anything.
9. What a pity for iKON and WINNER… I thought they could continue BIGBANG
10. Is there any moral hazard in the face of money? It’s just a matter of not releasing an album and not making a comeback. Who will invest in the invisible future? 11.
Getting into trouble is one thing. BLACKPINK only has 2 regular albums. Are you kidding me? New people don’t come out, and old people don’t release songs.
12. To be honest, moral factors have a very low impact on the stock. The important thing is that there is no cash cow at all.
13. YG has too many criminals starting from the boss, there are few groups, and there are few activities. Loves to get into trouble
14. Yes, the biggest risk for entertainment companies is uncertainty and instability
15. Yes, JYP artist activities are like relay races, even if they get into trouble, they will not be on the three major news channels;;;
