In recent reports, it was revealed that BTS<\/strong>‘ Jin<\/strong> and Baek Jong Won<\/strong>‘s highball brand was reported to the National Agricultural Products Quality Management Service (NAQS)<\/strong> for misleading information and allegedly violating origin labeling regulations.<\/p>\n

On September 23, TenAsia<\/strong> reported that an individual identified as Mr. A accused JINI\u2019s LAMP<\/strong> of mislabeling the origin of ingredients in its IGIN<\/strong> highball products, specifically the watermelon and plum flavors, starting an investigation against the brand.<\/p>\n

\n

“If violations are found, the case will be prosecuted and referred for further action. Administrative penalties will also follow depending on the severity of the violation”<\/strong><\/em>, said a representative of NAQS.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/figure>\n \n

According to the product details, Jin’s alcoholic beverages include imported ingredients<\/strong> such as plum concentrate from Chile and watermelon concentrate from the United States, but the company\u2019s website mistakenly listed the origins as domestic<\/strong>, causing consumers to believe IGIN watermelon and plum highballs were made entirely with Korean ingredients.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Under South Korea\u2019s Origin Labeling Act, providing misleading origin information can carry penalties<\/strong> of up to seven years in prison or fines of up to 100 million KRW (approximately $73,000), worrying all BTS member fans amid the investigation.<\/p>\n

A JINI\u2019s LAMP representative makes a statement<\/strong> regarding the legal case, assuring that the matter is “under review”<\/strong><\/em>, declining to provide further comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
