Professional basketball Carrot, delayed payment of team salaries… lameness concerns


It has been revealed that Day One Sports, the operator of the professional basketball team Carrot, failed to pay the players’ salaries on time.

It is because of the management difficulties of Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering, the parent company, and I am concerned about whether I will be able to pay the remaining 1 billion won of professional basketball subscription fees.

Day One Sports, which acquired professional basketball Orion last year, was founded under the name of its sponsor, ‘Carrot’.

However, as soon as it was founded, it caused controversy by paying 500 million won for the first round of KBL membership fees late.

This year, it was confirmed that even the salaries of the players and staff could not be paid on time.

Day One Sports said it had to pay wages yesterday, but it was delayed to the 13th.

The parent company of Day One Sports is Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering, a mid-sized company, but it has become difficult to raise funds as the parent company is in serious financial trouble.

Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering’s union criticized Chairman Kim Yong-bin for taking over the basketball team unreasonably despite a management crisis.
