L.Joe speaks up for the first time since filing to nullify his contract with TOP Media






Ljoe who recently revealed intentions to leave his group TEEN TOP and his label TOP Media by filing for a nullification of his contract, has spoken up for the first time since the issue broke out.

The idol had been hinting at his next steps by making his SNS accounts private and deleting TEEN TOP from his usernames. TOP Media's stance on the matter is that L.Joe will remain with TEEN TOP until his contract ends in January 2018, and participate in TEEN TOP's upcoming comeback, scheduled for this March. 

L.Joe spoke up about the matter by taking to TEEN TOP's official fan cafe. He wrote: 

"It's been a long time. First and foremost, the reason that I deleted all of the pictures on my Instagram which had memories I've made with fans in them was not because I wanted to erase those memories. It was difficult for me to look at photos capturing moments that I will no longer be able to return to. Please cherish our memories, and don't forget them. I will cherish them as well. Absolutely. I sincerely apologize for making fans frustrated because I wasn't able to speak up for myself through SNS up until now. There was nowhere for me to let out my own frustrated heart.. and these situations.. Thank you for worrying about someone like that, and I really am sorry for making you worry. The weather has been cold suddenly, so please watch out for sickness. Angel.."

Idol Leaders Who Aren’t the Oldest in Their Group

2AM’s Jo Kwon (August 28, 1989) Known as one of the trainees with the longest training period, not many people questioned his position as leader. B1A4’s Jin Young (November 18, 1991) He is only five months younger than the oldest teammate, CNU. Block B’s Zico (September 14, 1992) Although he has his silly side, Zico known when it’s time to get down to business. He is the second youngest of seven members. Big Bang’s G-Dragon (August 18, 1988) He gained experience very early during childhood through the group Little RooRa. He penned “Lies,” which shot his group to stardom. Such success due to a member, and not from the agency, freelance composers, etc.,  was unprecedented.

Agency ordered to repay partner

A Seoul court ordered the agency of Block B to return nearly $600,000 to its partner, holding it responsible for not hosting a concert of the idol group. The Seoul Central District Court ruled yesterday that Stardom Entertainment, which represents the seven-member boy group, needs to pay 652.44 million won ($586,990) to Shownote. The two companies signed a deal in September last year after agreeing to collaborate to hold Block B concerts at least twice each year for two years. Shownote gave the money to Stardom Entertainment on two occasions through October of last year. But the concerts were canceled after a conflict between Block B and Stardom Entertainment deepened over the terms of the contract. Shownote terminated the deal with Stardom Entertainment and filed a lawsuit to get the money back. Stardom Entertainment reportedly filed a countersuit, claiming Shownote slandered another singer that it represented and demanded 30 million won in compensation.
