An official statement in the FIFTY FIFTY affair.
The project started in earnest in June 2021 after receiving a request from Jeon Hong Joon, CEO of Attrakt, and achieved a successful debut and an unusual achievement of a girl group “FIFTY FIFTY” transferring all planning duties, production and related operations to Attrakt beginning May 31, 2023. Currently, we are only handling global promotion and overseas promotion with Warner Records at Attrakt’s request.
As of June 23, 2023, Attrakt has mentioned the involvement of “external forces” in legal battles with artists in press releases or interviews, and speculative rumors about “an outsourcing parent company that ran this” spread through various media and communities.
Regarding the speculative content of the articles, we would like to inform you that we have not intervened in any way, and that the content of the articles has nothing to do with us.
Additionally, on June 27, CEO Jeon Hong Joon filed a complaint with the police against the company’s representative and others, and reported the complaint to the media.
Since the establishment of Attrakt, he has faithfully worked in accordance with the contracts for outsourced services, and the day Attrakt received proof of termination of the contract from FIFTY FIFTY members, CEO Jeon Hong Joon, our CEO Ahn Sung Il and the lawyer for Attrakt attended a meeting. However, even though CEO Jeon Hong Joon and Attrakt are well aware of the above facts, they have been spreading false information, defaming the company, its representatives, officers and employees, and obstructing their work.
Our company has completed all the tasks, including securing the copyrights, in a timely manner, and especially the song “Cupid” belonged to us before the project of FIFTY FIFTY, and after that, we started to work on the group songs.
The reason for the accusation revealed by Attrakt in the media is completely different from the truth, and the company has maintained a neutral position without disclosing any position between Attrakt and FIFTY FIFTY.
Regarding the false accusations by CEO Jeon Hong Joon and Attrakt representatives and the continued spread of false information in the media, we have appointed a law firm, Yoo Hwa-woo, and will vigorously pursue legal action. in the future.
