BTS is not under a slave contract. Although they might not be getting paid as much, they are not under a 7-13 year contract that restricts them of their freedom. After looking up Big Hit Entertainment and doing research on their past debuted artists, the longest contract they’ve had was a contract with 2AM that lasted 5 years. GLAM’s contract with Big Hit was even shorter. Bang PD isn’t stupid. He owns a small entertainment company. Putting a group that he just freshly debuted under a 13 year contract would cost him more than it would earn him. He’s not SM or YG where he can throw all his money into one debut. He keeps his years low for a reason: he doesn’t know how successful the people he debuts would be.

Regardless, BTS’ rapper line gets royalties from past songs and after this album, the remaining members do too. Royalties ALWAYS goes straight to the artists that helped produce the song. If RapMon earned $700 from producing a song, he gets the full $700. From what I read, most profits from photobooks (like the NOW one they released last comeback) goes to BTS. Not all of it, but most. Big Hit makes sure they are fed real meals, unlike other artists who are stuck with Choco pies and little snacks during an 8 hour photo shoot and are well taken care of. 

Also, Big Hit is not mistreating BTS. I’ve been seeing a lot of posts recently about that but I don’t really know why it started…they are not forced into plastic surgery, they are not forced onto an unhealthy, strict diet plan and they do get paid guys. Let’s not forget that BTS is sponsored by Versace, Nike and Dior. Sponsors like that aren’t just given out. Bang PD worked his off for those.
Compared to other Kpop artists, BTS is probably the best treated. So let’s not bash Big Hit guys. 

As you can see, I have a lot of respect for Bang PD because of how he runs his company, unlike others. Let’s do our research rather than putting someone’s company on the line.
