SEOUL: A member of chart-topping girl group NewJeans will testify for South Korean lawmakers Tuesday (Oct 15) as part of an enquiry into workplace harassment, amid a boardroom drama over her super producer.
In recent years, South Korea's K-pop industry has become a global juggernaut powered by the success of groups like BTS, but domestically it is known for imposing strict standards and controls on fledgling stars.
