THE BOYZ Face $6 Million Lawsuit From Former Agency ONE HUNDRED
The agency is seeking to reclaim signing bonuses and has secured provisional asset seizures against members, following the group's April contract injunction.
THE BOYZ are entangled in a new legal dispute with their former agency, ONE HUNDRED. According to reporting published on August 4, ONE HUNDRED has filed a lawsuit seeking roughly 6 million US dollars, arguing that the members' contract signing bonuses were advance payments tied to their activities with the label and should be returned.
As part of the action, the agency has obtained provisional asset seizures against the members. Property belonging to Younghoon and Q has been frozen, and ONE HUNDRED has indicated it intends to pursue similar measures against the group's seven other members.
The lawsuit follows a ruling earlier this year in the group's favor. In April 2026, THE BOYZ were granted a contract injunction against ONE HUNDRED, with the court citing breach of trust, managerial neglect and non-payment. At that time, the court rejected the agency's characterization of the signing bonuses as advance payments — the same argument now at the center of the new suit.
The case remains ongoing, and the members have not been found liable. Aegyo Arena will provide updates as the situation develops.
