XIUMIN Music Video Payment Dispute: Producer Says 66 Million Won Still Unpaid

The company behind XIUMIN’s music video says it still hasn’t received the remaining balance for the project.

On the 19th, production house 815 VIDEO, which creates music videos and commercial/promotion content, issued a statement: “In August 2025, commissioned by INB100 (XIUMIN’s current agency), we produced one main music video and one teaser for 'Overdrop.'” They continued, “The total fee was 82.46 million won, of which we received a 16.5 million won advance. However, the remaining 65.96 million won has not been paid to date, even after project completion.”

They added, “After the payment due date, we repeatedly requested the balance and asked for official confirmation from the company. But since the departure of the person in charge, we have not received a clear response or a concrete payment schedule.” The company expressed “deep regret” over the prolonged non-payment of the rightful fee.

“We have continued discussions for an amicable resolution over a sufficient period,” 815 VIDEO said. “If the unpaid balance is not settled promptly, we will have no choice but to review all necessary measures to protect our rights under the contract.”

INB100 has not issued a separate statement on the matter.
