The FIFTY FIFTY incident has been a hot topic every day.
A few days ago, FIFTY FIFTY's agency, Attract, announced a statement saying, "External forces have been confirmed to be approaching affiliated artists and inducing them to violate our exclusive contract."
Here, the external force is known to be More Bounce. More Bounce is an outsourced company that was in charge of producing FIFTY FIFTY in early this year.
In response to Attract's claims, More Bounce also issued a statement saying, "Please stop the forced frame that puts the responsibility for the issues between the affiliated company and the artist on an unrelated company."
Meanwhile, FIFTY FIFTY filed a preliminary injunction to suspend the effect of the exclusive contract against its agency. He cited health problems and opaque settlement as the reason.
Recently, it is known that it has even registered the Korean trademark, and it is in a situation of being criticized.
In the midst of this, there are even claims that More Bounce CEO Ahn Sung-il deceived Attract CEO Jeon Hong-jun.
On the 6th, Dispatch released a recording of the conversation between the two people on April 4th regarding the copyright of the song "Cupid".
In the recording, Ahn Sung-il said, "I'm going to make a song for FIFTY FIFTY. I'll give it to you for free."
However, in the end, More Bounce released the song "Cupid" as its own song.
Attracted CEO Jeon Hong-jun said, "I was deceived by Ahn Sung-il's words."
He said, "I will take legal action against More Bounce."
More Bounce CEO Ahn Sung-il has not yet responded to the allegations.
The FIFTY FIFTY incident is expected to continue to be a hot topic as it is a case of a dispute between an agency and an artist.
