On March 4, the official YouTube channels of Starship Entertainment’s artists, including the renowned girl group IVE, experienced a hacking incident, resulting in the unavailability of their content for viewers.
The hackers changed the name of IVE’s YouTube channel to ‘SpaceX’, which is Elon Musk’s space company.
As of 8 PM (Korean time) today, it appears that the videos related to IVE cannot be accessed on their YouTube channel. IVE’s YouTube channel has an impressive 3.37 million subscribers.
Besides IVE, YouTube channels of other Starship Entertainment artists like MONSTA X and CRAVITY were also hacked.
