In an official press release on the 30th, the court ruled that the exclusive contract between the two parties is still valid in a lawsuit to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract between the company and its artist Newzins. The court judged that the company did not violate its obligations as a management company and that attempts to break away from the exclusive contract by creating the appearance of a broken trust relationship should not be allowed.
Since the artist's claim to terminate the exclusive contract in November last year, the company has carefully responded by watching a series of processes, including a lawsuit on the merits to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract, an application for an injunction to prevent confusion until the judgment on the merits is made, the court's judgment on the citation, the artist's immediate appeal, and the decision to dismiss it"For nearly a year, the court has repeatedly decided in several related lawsuits that the company is in the position of a management company under an exclusive contract and that the artist should perform entertainment activities with us."
I hope that today's results, in which various arguments and facts have been verified for a long time, and a ruling to the same effect once again, will serve as an opportunity for artists to calmly reflect on this issue.
Finally, "We will also engrave the role and duties of the management company required in the exclusive contract once again" "We are waiting after preparing for activities such as the release of a regular album, as stated during the main trial." I will do my best to return to the fans through discussions with the artists"I vowed.
On the same day, the Seoul Central District Court's Civil Agreement Department 41 (Chief Judge Chung Hoe-il) ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by Adore to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract against five Newzins. Members did not appear in court.
The court did not accept all claims of breach of contract and breakdown of trust relationship by dividing them into 10 categories, and determined that the exclusive contract signed on April 21, 2022 was still valid, and made Newsins bear the costs of the lawsuit.
▶ Hereinafter, the official entrance of the door is full
Today, the court ruled that the exclusive contract between the two sides is still valid in a lawsuit to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract between the company and its artist Newzins.
The court judged that the company did not violate its obligations as a management company and should not be allowed to attempt to leave the exclusive contract by creating the appearance of a broken trust relationship.
Thank you very much for the decision of the court.
Since the artist's claim to terminate the exclusive contract in November last year, the company has carefully responded by watching a series of processes, including a lawsuit to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract, an application for an injunction to prevent confusion until the original decision is made, the court's judgment on the citation, the artist's immediate appeal, and the decision to dismiss it.
For nearly a year, the court has repeatedly decided in several related lawsuits that the company is in the position of a management company under an exclusive contract, and that the artist should be engaged in entertainment activities with us.
I hope that today's results, which have been verified over a long period of time, and once again ruled to the same effect, will serve as an opportunity for artists to look back on this matter calmly.
We will also engrave the role and duties of the management company required in the exclusive contract once again. As stated during the main trial, we are waiting after preparing for activities such as the release of a full-length album. We will do our best to return to the fans through discussions with artists.
