Kapanlagi.com - The K-Pop world has been shaken again by shocking news from one of the members of the VCHA group, Kiera Grace Madder (KG). On December 7, 2024, KG publicly announced her resignation from the VCHA group under the management of JYP Entertainment USA. This decision not only surprised fans but also sparked heated debates regarding issues of harassment and unfair treatment in the entertainment industry.
KG, who started her career as a trainee at JYP Entertainment, stated that her decision was based on personal experiences that she deemed harmful to her mental health.

The issue gained even more public attention after JYP USA issued an official response denying the allegations.
This controversy has sparked extensive discussions about the welfare of K-Pop idols and the training systems implemented by major agencies. Here is a summary of the chronology of events and statements from both parties.
