Reporter Lee Jae-hoon = A series of incidents surrounding ‘Fifty Fifty’, a new K-pop girl group of ‘Cupid’, is spreading into a fierce battle between the agency and music service companies. This time, they are fighting over the cessation of the Hollywood movie ‘Barbie’ OST ‘Barbie Dreams’ music video project.<\/p>\n

On the 17th, Dugiverse, which was in charge of Fifty Fifty’s music service, said, “Attract CEO Jeon Hong-joon insists that Dugiverse CEO Ahn Seong-il arbitrarily proceeded and canceled the ‘Bobby Dreams’ music video project without his approval. He directly approved the filming of ‘Z’, and even though he himself ordered the sudden cancellation during the project, he is claiming false facts.” <\/p>\n

According to Dugiverse, CEO Ahn had a meeting with Atlantic Records under Warner Music Group (WMG) during a business trip to the United States in March of this year. Atlantic Records, which highly rated Fifty Fifty, proposed filming a music video for ‘Bobby Dreams’ to Dugiverse through Warner Music Korea on May 27th. <\/p>\n

Dugiverse reported this situation to the former CEO and decided to shoot the music video by minimizing the amount of appearances of Aran, who had health problems. However, Dugiverse claims that on the 19th of last month, CEO Jeon, who received proof of contents from Fifty Fifty, abruptly stopped the filming of \u201cBobby Dreams\u201d on the 20th of the same month, saying that the instigator of this incident should be found and held accountable. <\/p>\n

Dugiverse said, \u201cCEO Jeon abruptly stopped the process that he had been preparing for several weeks on the advice of his lawyer, and at the same time forced CEO Ahn to give a false explanation about the reason for the suspension while hiding the fact that he had received a proof of content from Warner Music, and shifted the responsibility for that. CEO Jeon, who needed to explain the situation to the US side due to the sudden cancellation of the filming, repeatedly evaded responsibility and made false claims, saying, ‘The person who led the MV to be stopped was PD Ahn Seong-il, and he himself could not convince Aran’s parents. “he added.

Dugiverse’s contract with Attract ended at the end of May. Dugiverse said, “The reason Dugiverse is ending Attract’s business is because of problems within Attract. Even when people around us ask, ‘Why are you stopping when the artist and album are doing well?’ I couldn’t give you a clear answer that I could understand.” <\/p>\n

Separately, suspicions arose that CEO Ahn forged the autographs of three Swedish composers, the original authors of \u201cCupid.\u201d Dispatch, an entertainment media outlet, reported on the same day that CEO Ahn bought the copyright of ‘Cupid’ without Attract’s knowledge, and signed a contract to transfer the rights to take over the composer’s share in February. In addition, the media claimed that it had committed an illegal act by forging the autographs of three Swedish composers and submitting a confirmation of share change to the Korea Music Copyright Association.<\/p>\n

Dugiverse has yet to comment on this.<\/p>\n
