SUJU Hangeng still under SME

On 13June,2010, Korea SME sternly responded the case of Hangeng, which many people thinks that the lawsuit as came to an end. SME stated that: Contract of Hangeng has not yet been terminated, he’s still under SME. All the activities of Hangeng had to yet undergo SME’s permission and authorization.

The case of Hangeng’s contract termination had caused a big chaos in the entertainment industry. Ever since the commotion settled a bit, Hangeng’s whereabouts has always been secret. After making a quick appearance in America, there had been rumors saying that he is leaving the group and planning to establish a dancing studio with Jay Chou. Moreover, fans had been debating over Hangeng’s case, spreading the news of the unfair treatments provided by SME to Geng, as well as analyzing the future routes of Hangeng, stating that the fans will support him forever.

The response given out by SME today was very stern, stating that Hangeng isn’t freed yet. Undoubtedly, this will be like throwing a heavy bomb to the contract incident, pulling Hangeng, who has been facing lots of uncertainties, back to the whirlpool of chaos. However, Hangeng does not agree with his company, saying that “it’s usual to see K-pop entertainers terminating contract with their companies, if it’s for those who plan to work on his own, it’s really okay.

Stakeholders said that, under the current situation, Hangeng has been secretly working for his new album as well as the arrangements of his performance, and will have a new start in this July. Besides that, Hangeng will be entering the filming industry, and will be appearing on the silver screen soon.

From these, we can see why SME is that concern over Geng’s case, having two different opinions from each side, Hangeng decides to put away the lawsuit case behind, and putting all his effort into his own career. It seems that to exchange his freedom, Hangeng will need to walk the long and arduous journey in front of him.

More about Super Junior Hangeng lawsuit 2010

” Hangeng’s entire court case includes 2 parts. The first part is that the judge could announce that part of the contract is invalid before announcing the termination of contract. This is to protect Hangeng’s rights & interests and to prevent SME from delaying the case. It may also allow Hangeng to have a certain amount of freedom before the case ends (to “frozen” the effects of the contract). The other part is to terminate the contract. Also, the case may last for a longer period of time because of the complexity of the case and contract.

On Jan 23, SuJu was at Wukesong Indoor Stadium throwing their “Super Show 2″ in Beijing concert as part of their Asian Tour schedule.

Super Junior,Hankyung will not participating in the Beijing Concert?

At Hunan Satallite TV's New Year Concert, fans were shocked when Super Junior-M's leader Hankyung was missing.

They discovered later that because of his impending lawsuit and process of terminating his contract, Hankyung will stop his activities.

On January 10, 2010, Super Junior will start its Asia tour in Guangzhou and will also hold a concert on January 23rd in Beijing. In light of this, fans are requesting that their tickets be refunded , “because there is no way to confirm whether Hankyung will be participating in the Beijing concert on 23 January"

After talking to organizers, fans were allowed to refund their tickets. "Refunding tickets is on a voluntary basis, please carefully consider before making you choice.” Many fans indicated that refunding their tickets is the most effective way of showing support for Hankyung: “support this, Hankyung's fans refunding their tickets is the best support for Hankyung! We must not let SM take advantage of this opportunity, saying that if Hankyung is not there, the fans will still be as passionate as before.”

The contract termination case will resume on January 8th in which he submitted an 'agreement to suspend the contract' and an 'invalid contract lawsuit'. He also submitted an 'agreement to suspend the contract' to prevent SM from using delay tactics that would give Hankyung his "freedom" as early as March 2010.

Hankyung's lawyer said in a statement that Hankyung "himself feels unwell and needs some time to recuperate. He is not in contact with his company because he is worried it will lead to unnecessary disputes. Also, it’s because he has already applied to the court to commence his lawsuit and his lawyers have recommended that he temporarily not participate in any of SM’s performance activities."

"Hangeng's case to begin on January 8th

　　Regarding Hangeng and SM's case, there's been a lot of rumors, and Hangeng's representative lawyer, Lawyer Lee; accepted an interview from Sina today, talking about the case. Lawyer Lee revealed, Hangeng submitted two documents to court, "Suspend Contract" and "Terminate Contract" papers; and is similar to those from previous SM lawsuits. They plan to begin the case next year January 8th, Hangeng himself won't be there, but will be represented by his lawyer. Lawyer Lee proclaimed, because this case is kind of complicated, so we can't calculate the percentage of winning right now.

　　The fastest he can end this is in March

　　Regarding Korean Laws, the person that's sueing's document of "Terminating Contract" has to go through 1st investigation, 2nd investigation, and 3rd investigation; these 3 steps; 1st & 2nd step. Some of them even exceed 8 months. To prevent SME from extending the battle, Hangeng also submitted a "Suspend Contract" document. This one takes 3-4 months. This means that at the fastest, Geng'll be free from SME in March.

　　Currently Resting, refuses to talk to SME.

　　There were media that talked about Geng's contract conditions, Lawyer Lee confirms it, same as the Media's guesses "There's some proofs". He spilled that, Hangeng's currently on vacation mode, He won't be participating in any performances. One side is because Hangeng doesn't feel well, and needs time to recover, not talking with the company means not starting unnecessary shit (he didnt use shit, but thats the only word i find appropriate). Another side is that because he already submitted a lawsuit, it's kind of awkward with the company. If hangeng attends another SME's activity, it'll cause people's unnecessary guesses. So the Lawyer suggests to not participate in any SM activities. Regarding CFs, Lawyer Lee said that if it's not with SJ, and it's a Solo commercial, then they can consider it. "

Super Junior Hankyung wants to leave SME because of SNSD?

A Chinese news site reported what seems to be a rumor about Hankyung and SNSD. Long story short, the article indicated that Hankyung's real reason for wanting to terminate his contract was not just an unfair contract, but mistreatment by SNSD members.

Hankyung wants to leave SM Entertainment not only because of his contract, but because of the mistreatment from other artists of the company. It's been reported that he has been receiving hurtful comments from SNSD for some time. He was disregarded by people after working very hard and developed psychological disorders.

Sohu.com continued,

Because of the disorders, he wanted to take a break but they denied his request. SNSD has always been sarcastic and used satire against him. For example, they would say to him, "Oppa! Do you think you can look Korean by dyeing your hair blonde?" Comments of this nature hurt Hankyung and he couldn't take it anymore.

One netizen said, "It seems like Chinese press is trying to make Koreans look bad. This is an article that is trying to twist the truth."

Because of SME,Super Junior Hankyung have gastritis and Kidney illness

Hankyung, Super Junior’s only Chinese member in the 13 member group, has filed a lawsuit against the effects of his exclusive contract with the defendant SM Entertainment because of their unfair activity scheduling which has caused him gastritis and kidney illness.

Through Hankyung’s legal representative, the lawsuit to terminate his exclusive contract was filed on the 21st with the Seoul District Court.

According to the litigation, Hankyung has not even been given a single rest day per week after debut. It has been said, “Because of the recent continuous overseas activities etc, it has almost been 2 years since he last rested, he has been rushing schedules (all this while).” “Due to contract obligations and heavy penalties, even during bad health, he was not to skip any scheduled activities.”


Hankyung’s side emphasized, “Because of these kind of health problems, (he) has continuously put forward requests to rest, but has always been rejected.” They added, “Except for when they started their perfomances in 2006, at other times, he had to stay in Korea.” “Through their manager, Hankyung requested from SM for leave to return to China to rest but he was rejected every single time.”

Hankyung’s side added, Hankyung’s exclusive contract terms ▶SM was definitely in a more superior position signing on unfair terms in the contract ▶The contract would span 13 years (starting from the release of their first album) ▶Incorporated excessive damages and in terms of the contract, if he voided it, he would be blocked (from other activities) ▶Allocation of rights and obligations in the contract were significantly off-balanced ▶SM had the right to request Hankyung to be in any activity ▶Profit-splitting rights and provisions were also off-balance, hence the intiation of the lawsuit against SM to terminate his exclusive contract.

On the other hand, after Hankyung intiated litigation, SM stated their stand that “for the sake of Super Junior and Hankyung, they are in talks to resolve the problem”.

Edit: The reason why Hankyung brought in the lawsuit against SM

These are 6 unfair things from Hankyung’s exclusive contract with SM which are stated by Hankyung’s side (not sure from his lawyer or his representative)

1. The contract has many provisiosn which are in SM’s favor.

When the first contract was signed (January 2003) Hankyung was 18 then (underage) and being a Chinese person, he didnt know everything about Korean showbiz so SM had given him a contract with the content that SM suggested.

Not only that, but those side agreements with SM after then (on Febuary 2007 and December 2007) also were only from SM (aka Hankyung didnt have chance to suggest the provisions which are in his favor)

2. The period of the exclusive contract is 13 years is too long.

The first contract was signed stated that it will be ended 10 years after Super Junior’s 1st album but it has been extended to 13 years on the 2nd modified time. Super Junior’s 1st album was released in December 2005 so the contract will be ended in December 2018 and Hankyung will be 35 then.

Moreover, if Hankyung gives up some activities because of his health or study, the contract’s period will be extended according to the situation so it might be 13 years on the paper but it could be longer in real life and this violated seriously to Hankyung’s civil right.

3. There is clause stated that Hankyung will have to pay SM a lot for breaking contract or creating damages toward the contract, thus this prevents Hankyung to cancel the contract or some agreements on the contract. If Hankyung wants to move to another company and continue his activities, he will have to pay SM threefold of the money that SM had invested to him and pay twofold for the loss of the remain time of his contract.

4. The amount between Hankyung’s rights and responsibilities that stated in the contract are not the same.

Hankyung has to follow and attend all the schedule that SM give him, has to do/follow all SM’s orders/intrustions unconditionally but he doesnt have right to request his contract to be revised.

5. SM has forced Hankyung to do some activities that against his will.

At the training time, if Hankyung was late or absent or didnt fulfill his duty he would be fined 10,000won for the 1st time, 20,000won for the 2nd time. After debut, if he was late or absent from his schedule, he would have to pay for all the damage, if he cut the contact with SM more than 1 day according to the situation SM can cancel his contract. And if he doesnt fulfill his duty, according to the situation he could be fined 5,000,000won.

According to the contract, Hankyung doesnt have any right to decide for his schedule, he has to follow SM’s words and only attend the events/performances that SM’s manager designed for him. Hankyung even had been forced to attend some activities because of SM’s order when he was ill.

6. The profit distribution and copyrights between SM and Hankyung.

During the contract period, all the copyright of albums and song will belong to SM. Although Hankyung wrote, composed, arranged the songs, they can be used by SM without his permission.

About the profit, the album has to be sold more than 50,000 pieces so that Hankyung can receive 2% the profit. The digital sales has to be equal with the net profit so Hankyung can get 10% and the oversea income has to be equal with the net profit too so Hankyung can get 60%.

About the oversea activities income, after SM deduct all the promotion activities’s expenses & fees, the remain money will be divided among the members.

More about Super Junior Hankyung requested that his contract be voided

- We heard that two separate actions were taken.
"To put it simply, the first action seeks to relieve him from the unfair contract and the second action asks to suspend the contract until the decision is made for the first one so that Hankyung may act on his individual will for the time being."

- When did Hankyung start planning on this action?
"We cannot answer that. We can only answer within the boundaries of what is described on the file."

- His arguments are the same as that of the three members of TVXQ / DBSK?
"Very similar. Hankyung also has 13 year contract with unfair terms."

- Did Hankyung have any contacts with the three members?
"We're not sure. He will soon release an official statement so wait for that."

- Has the date for the first trial been decided yet?
"The file did not even fully go through yet. DBSK's case took about two and a half months until a partial ruling was given and we expect about the same amount of time to be taken for this case. DBSK's case had numerous negotiations for settlements and couple trials so it took longer than usual. We hope that Hankyung's case would not be so long."

- Does Hankyung want to continue as Super Junior or does he want out?
"We don't know. Nothing has been decided in terms of Super Junior."

- We heard that he is preparing for solo activities in China.
"We haven't heard anything about that."

Super Junior,Heechul and Hankyung are best friends

Heechul posted this photo of him with Hankyung and wrote:

"I only go to China when I have a concert. But even still, whenever I go to China I am popular. Although I heard this from the manager, he told me that Hankyung talks a lot about me in China.

The manager also told me that Hankyung often said, when he was in Korea having a hard time, that I helped him a lot and that we were good friends. Because of this, lots of people would ask if I'm coming to China."

SM talk about Super Junior Hankyung

Hankyung send this to SME

Through OSEN’s phone conversation with SM Entertainment on 21st Dec, it was also revealed that, “For the sake of Super Junior, they will try to settle this through communication.”

Super Junior Hankyung will leaves Super Junior soon?

According to a related source in China, Hankyung filed a request at the Seoul Central District Court to make his contract with SM Entertainment null and void at noon on the 21st.

Hankyung, who is well-known as the only Chinese member in Super Junior, is popular amongst both the Asian youth and media. With his good reputation and talent, many speculated that the singer would go on to have a very successful solo career as well. However, rumor has it that the contract forbade Hankyung from pursuing a solo career, creating a rift that led to this contract termination request.

The press stated,

"No specific details have yet been released towards this termination request. However, it is likely the reason is because of the unfairness the contract holds in regards to Hankyung's personal development."
