The conflict between Sung Hoon, a former member of the group Brown Eyed Soul, and his agency Longplay Music has surfaced. It has been more than two years since Sung Hoon's withdrawal from the team in March 2023 that the two sides are in a head-on conflict.

Sung-hoon claimed on his SNS on the 7th that he did not voluntarily leave BSOL.

Sung Hoon was waiting for the recording of the 2022 Bassol album. But Naul said his voice was not good and he didn't know when his voice would come back, so I just prayed and waited"But one morning, Naul's voice came back and I learned on the Internet that a solo project was being planned."




He began to explode with sorrow and anger which he had endured for 20 yearsIt was a YouTube channel called 'SUNG BY HOON' that kept me going. Even though there were few views, I was so happy. But the boss stopped me from doing YouTube anymore, and if I wanted to do more, I even told Naul to kneel down and beg."

Then "President Lee Soo-geun suddenly came to my house and offered a withdrawal contract and asked me to stamp it."After deliberation, we agreed on the condition that we do not play the media cleanly with each other," he recalled.

Nevertheless "Then you should have excluded my voice from the fifth album." Isn't that polite?" "My withdrawal was not my choice. I want you to know that I wanted to keep it until the end somehow."




In response, Brown Eyed Soul's agency Longplay Music made an official statement on the same day, saying it was an inevitable decision due to Sung-hoon's psychological instability.

The agency said "Sung Hoon suffered psychological difficulties and instability due to the prolonged absence of activities due to the COVID-19 period and members' health problems. I heard you've been doing professional counseling and treatment at the same time" countered.

"In the process, inappropriate words and actions continued, such as sending personal aggression messages to other members and their families, and the company recommended treatment and rest several times" "Nevertheless, he respected Sung-hoon's willingness to perform music and actively supported his personal activities such as producing solo albums and shooting YouTube contents, but as the situation did not change, he decided to terminate the exclusive contract and leave the team after consultation" he said.




He also warned that "(As a colleague who has been with him for a long time, I sincerely hope that Sung-hoon will stabilize," but that if he is defamed by spreading false information, he will take strong measures, including legal action."

Then, on the same day, Sung-hoon issued a second statement and refuted it again. Sung-hoon "I read Longplay's statement well. I heard that I made personal attacks on a member and family member, so please post what kind of personal attacks I made in detail. "I endured it for 20 years. If it comes out like that, I will take any legal action as well,' he warned.

Also "Didn't you stop me from doing YouTube, and I told June, who was in charge of my arrangement, not to do it?" I look forward to and respect Bassol's good performances and music, but I will fight for my honor as I am just criticizing his 20 years of labor as a psychopath"From now on, I will only talk about accurate stories based on facts" he stressed.
