Fan protests reach South Korea’s national pension fund
Heeseung’s departure also sparked mobilization beyond the traditional K-pop environment. On March 19, Reuters reported that ENHYPEN fans overwhelmed communication channels at South Korea’s National Pension Service, after incorrect information circulated on social media claiming the organization was the majority shareholder of HYBE.

NPS chairman Kim Sung-joo stated that the fund does not interfere with the formation of K-pop groups or decisions involving members. According to Reuters, the organization received more than 1,500 emails and several international calls in a short period. (reuters.com)
The report also explained that the NPS held a stake in HYBE, but that did not mean control over artistic or administrative decisions involving ENHYPEN. (reuters.com)
