[NEWS] DBSK's Official Statements Regarding Dispute!



As almost everyone knows by now, popular boy group DBSK//TVXQ members, Youngwoong Jaejoong, Micky Yoochun, and Xiah Junsu have been disputing with their company, SM Entertainment. The members finally released their official statements, which had thousands waiting for what the members had to say. (Including me! OMFG.)



Their lawyer stated on behalf of the three boys, "During the five years after they debuted, the company has done whatever they wanted which made the body and spirit of the members of DBSK very tired. The 13 year exclusive contract is too long that, which to them, feels like a life long contract. The members don't receive what they deserve."

Because of the carelessness of the company, Korea's No.1 boys have been suffering from both mental and physical fatigue and feel that they are just being used for profit for the company. (Oh, no really. This was quite obvious from the start. T__T) Not only are there standards that have to be met in order to be paid at all, the boys also receive only a few hours of sleep a day, which is nothing close to what just one day in their schedule needs! Additionally, the 13 year long contract, which excludes the time they will be completing their military activities, will exceed over a mind boggling 15 years.... and it hasn't even been close to 13 years yet! Although the boys have considered it, cancelling the contract is also out of the question, as there is a huge price to pay - approximately a several billion South Korea won (KRW).

The lawyer expressed, "The members don't want to disband, but they just feel that the contract is ridiculous. Right now, the things each of the three members want is a little different, however, the relationship between the members is still unaffected, as they still want to be one." (Oh course! DBSK's bond is too strong to be affected. <3)

DBSK's reasons:

1. During the five years after debut, the members were forced to follow a strict and tight schedule according to their company which made them very tired.

2. The 13 year exclusive contract is basically a lifetime contract.

3. The members aren't getting what they deserve from SM.

4. Multiple times had the members suggested that their contract be revised, but the company did not listen to the members' opinions.

5. The outcome of their cosmetics shop has nothing to do with their singing career.

6. The members have never wanted the disbandment of their group. The issue just spurred from the boys wanting some freedom from the contract.

7. "Although we have caused some ruckus, we will only become better from here."

I can breath again! Thank God they cleared up the disbandment part. But still, waiting for this issue to be resolved is too much to handle. Do you know how hard it is for Cassiopeians to function right now? We're under too much stress! T__T Our poor babies...I want to re-write their contract for them. I want them to be happier. Doesn't LSM know that if they're happy, they'll be able to produce more for him? That man...>=O Forcing them isn't going to do anything! Crap it all. I'm pissed all over again. Cassiopeia & Dong Bang Shin Ki hwaiting!
