JYP Issues Second Apology Over Excessive ID Checks at DAY6 Fan Meeting
DAY6 held its 10th anniversary fan meeting 'Pier Ten: All My Days' at Jamsil Indoor Stadium from the 18th to the 20th. However, when entering the performance, it was pointed out that excessive personal information was requested in the process of identifying oneself. The government restricted the admission of students' ID cards, which are recognized when voting, as well as expired employee cards, national health insurance cards, and public official cards with resident registration cards. In particular, controversy erupted over the revelation that he excessively infringed on the audience's personal information, such as checking addresses and resident registration numbers, sharing personal information such as identification cards in group chat rooms without permission, and even asking for financial certificates and life records.

As a result, JYP requested additional unnecessary personal information as above or collected and shared the audience's personal information for additional confirmation of the prepared documents in the process of entrusting the management of the position to the operating company on the 21st. The self-identification procedure implemented in conducting the existing performance was intended to protect the audience by distinguishing between the audience and those who illegally sell tickets in an illegal way, but in this case, flexible response and management responsibilities were not exercised"We feel responsible for the matter, and we will thoroughly manage the collection of personal information unfairly without invading the privacy of individuals. In addition, by checking the facts with the operating company, we promise to compensate the ticket refund to the audience who couldn't enter the performance due to the excessive identification process, and we will follow up on the detailed notice of the compensation process", he apologized.
