Like all companies, YG Entertainment makes use of TikTok to promote their artists. Each video promotes the group in some way, whether it’s the latest releases, challenges, or performances.

On TikTok, some accounts have a music note bar on the profile, and this is the “Music Tab” that helps showcase a catalog of music for fans to easily access and discover music on TikTok. K-Pop companies usually use it to promote their artists, so it would be easy to expect the same from YG Entertainment.
It meant that an unexpected change from YG Entertainment’s picks led many to think that the company’s TikTok had been hacked.
On the music tab, netizens were shocked to see some unexpected sounds on the page, including aespa‘s “Drama” and “SPICY”…

While all the songs are amazing, they’re definitely nothing to do with YG Entertainment, and they were mixed in with some other extremely random sounds.
When netizens noticed what happened, they couldn’t hide their reactions, especially as it had gone over 12 hours without anyone on the YG Entertainment team noticing anything.
