In a set of KakaoTalk messages CEO Kang threatens a manager of OMEGA X, as well as member Jaehan and another member:
QuoteDisplay More"Manager X exacerbated misunderstandings between the artists and the company with all kinds of lies.
Finding this a cause for dismissal, you are officially fired.
If you accompany our company's artists, I will sue you.
Get off the plane. This is an order.
Kim Jae Han, get off the plane.
You must face all penalties associated with violating orders from the company.
Both of you, get off the plane.
Kim Jae Han, member Y, get off the plane.
You are not only fired, your contracts will be terminated.
Do you think I'm joking?"
I am wondering if this is the only manager who stayed with the boys in LA and traveled back to Korea with them on their own dime as well. Only one person stayed with them, so it's probably this person who seems to have fought for them.
Furthermore, SBS News has discovered evidence that Kang forced members of OMEGA X to perform during their overseas tour even after the members tested positive for COVID-19 using self-test kits.
Two months ago in late September, four members of OMEGA X tested positive for COVID-19 before a scheduled concert. However, CEO Kang simply told the members, "Steel yourselves mentally and go on stage."

"Meanwhile, SBS News has also reported that Spire Entertainment has recently forwarded a statement of accounts to 10 out of 11 OMEGA X members, claiming that each member owed up to 400 million KRW (~ $300,000 USD) in unpaid fees."
