On the 21st, Eun Ga-eun's former agency, TISM Entertainment, said, `We humbly respect the decision of the first trial court regarding the application for an injunction for suspension of the validity of the exclusive contract filed by Eun Ga-eun singer.'
In response to the decision, the lawyer in charge of the law firm, who served as our company's legal representative in the first trial, said 'The judgment of the first trial mainly mentions the basis for the settlement of the company, but it seems that the part provided by the company by organizing dozens of detailed settlement basis data before the artist's lawsuit was not sufficiently delivered.'
In the meantime, "The first trial did not judge otherwise that nearly 1 billion won in settlement was paid to the artist during the exclusive contract period. I will appeal immediately against the judgment of the first instance" he said.
We also decided to proceed with the follow-up procedure to show the court that the company faithfully complied with the exclusive contract and to protect various celebrities who trust and follow the company. In the appeal hearing, we will sincerely reveal the actions and positions of TSM Entertainment," he said.
The 21st Civil Agreement Division of the Seoul Western District Court explained that the trust relationship between TSM Entertainment and TSM Entertainment was broken because it is difficult to believe that TSM Entertainment over-settled the expenses or faithfully performed its settlement obligations in violation of the settlement obligations set forth in the exclusive contract in this case.
In the meantime, "The exclusive contract and subsidiary agreement concluded in May 2020 between the Plaintiff and the Defendant shall be suspended from effect""The defendant shall also bear the full cost of litigation" he ruled.
In December last year, Eun Ga-eun filed an injunction against TSM Entertainment to suspend the validity of the exclusive contract, citing non-payment of settlement payments, breakdown of trust, and negligence of work.
At the time, Eun Ga-eun "Trusting and entrusted tasks were difficult because of the company's lax work," he said.
Eun Ga-eun's lawyer said "The agency interfered with the schedule or the progress of the new song, and the settlement was not paid." Even if we request supporting data on the payment of the settlement, they are not providing it," he said, explaining the reason for the lawsuit.
Eun Ga-eun "Thank you all for your concern on the 20th. We will show you good music, good performance, without any lies."
Hereinafter, the full text of TSM's official position.
This is TSM Entertainment.
Our TSM Entertainment humbly respects the decision of the first trial court in connection with the application for provisional injunction for suspension of the exclusive contract filed by Eun Ga-eun Singer.
In response to the decision, the lawyer in charge of the law firm, who served as our company's legal representative in the first trial, mainly mentions the basis for the company's settlement, but it seems that the part provided by the company by organizing dozens of detailed settlement basis data before the artist's lawsuit was not sufficiently delivered. The first trial did not judge otherwise that nearly 1 billion won was paid to the artist during the exclusive contract period. The opinion is that it would be better to immediately appeal the judgment of the first trial and explain it so that the higher trial can fully understand it.
Therefore, we decided to follow-up procedures to show the court that the company faithfully complied with the exclusive contract and to protect celebrities from various affiliates who trust and follow the company. In the appeal, we will sincerely reveal our TSM Entertainment's actions and positions so far.
Thank you.
