On August 8, YG Entertainment reported a return to profitability for the second quarter, with consolidated revenue of ₩100.4 billion and an operating profit of ₩8.4 billion. The net income for the period was ₩11.2 billion, showing a positive year-on-year change. The stock reached a 52-week high of ₩104,900 on August 12.

Sources from the police indicate that the Mapo Police Station in Seoul initiated an investigation following a complaint filed in November of the previous year by a composer identified as A. The complaint alleged that G-Dragon and Yang Hyun-suk had violated copyright laws by reproducing a work without authorization and distributing it in an album.

YG Entertainment has refuted the allegations. According to a statement reported by Ilgan Sports, a company representative explained, "This issue originates from a 2009 solo concert where two songs with identical titles were mistakenly included in the setlist. It is not a matter of unauthorized album reproduction."

The police have reportedly conducted interviews with individuals involved and executed two searches at YG Entertainment's headquarters as part of the ongoing investigation.
