Four people were injured on Wednesday afternoon during a photo shoot for a K-pop act in an abandoned factory building in Osan, Gyeonggi.

The four are staff members of The Black Label, a K-pop agency led by music producer Teddy and home to singers Jeon Somi, Zion.T, Taeyang of boy band Big Bang and actor Park Bo-gum.

Two men in their 30s and 40s suffered severe head injuries and were transported to the Ajou University Hospital's trauma center, according to a Yonhap News report.

Two others, one man and one woman, suffered minor injuries.

"We believe that the photo shoot was for trainees of the agency who have not made their official debut yet," the police said. "We have not yet conducted a proper investigation so no further details can be disclosed."

The company manager can be punished if safety precautions had not been taken at the site.
