Cube Entertainment has announced its official position on the dispute with LAI KUAN LIN, a former member of the group Wanna One.
“The Seoul High Court on May 19th dismissed an appeal by our artist LAI KUAN LIN against our company,” Cube Entertainment said on May 20th.
“We respect the court’s decision and plan to settle the matter smoothly through dialogue between the parties“.
LAI KUAN LIN filed an injunction against Cube Entertainment in July of last year in the Seoul Central District Court to suspend the validity of his contract. LAI KUAN LIN claimed that Cube Entertainment transferred its exclusive managing authority for LAI KUAN LIN in China to Ostrich Entertainment in January 2018, and that LAI KUAN LIN and her parents were aware of the contract in April of last year.
Cube Entertainment, on the other hand, said: “There is no contractual reason for termination between us and LAI KUAN LIN. All schedules and contracts have been executed with the consent of LAI KUAN LIN. We have also received LAI KUAN LIN‘s consent to select a management company in China, which is essential for promotion in China. Since he is an intern, we support him in “Produce 101 Season 2”, Wanna One’s activities and activities in China, and let’s distribute the profits. ”
Later, the Seoul Central District Court rejected LAI KUAN LIN‘s request for an injunction to suspend the validity of its exclusive contract last November. At the time, Cube Entertainment announced its official position, stating: “We plan to maintain our exclusive contractual relationship with LAI KUAN LIN and to seek a smooth solution through dialogue between the parties.”
LAI KUAN LIN then issued a statement on May 19th with his legal representative via his Weibo account. LAI KUAN LIN Will Continue Dispute Over Rejection, News Release.
