JYJ’s legal representative has released its official statement following JYJ’s agreement with SM Entertainment.
On the 28th, SM Entertainment and the three members of JYJ came to the decision that all contracts signed by the two parties had officially ended on the 31st of July, 2009, the date the trio submitted their injunction.
JYJ’s legal advisor Sejong stated, “Kim Jaejoong, Kim Junsu and Park Yoochun’s nullification injunction against their former agency became the center of society’s spotlight. By gaining two monumental verdicts against an unlawful lawsuit that abused the absolute weak position of trainees, they provided a decisive opportunity to eradicate and improve the conditions surrounding unlawful practices in the entertainment industry.”
Sejong also added, “Because of this lawsuit, institutions such as the Fair Trade Commission, the Commission on Human Rights and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism have improved legal regulations to protect trainees and rookies. Above all, by raising awareness within the industry itself, the trio have set up a sturdy foundation for rookies to pursue activities freely in a safe environment, where they are protected by the law within entertainment agencies.”
They continued to state, “Also, thanks to the cooperation of both forward-looking parties, we hope for more progress for JYJ through this agreement, which is equivalent to an outright victory.”
