According to the legal community on the 16th, Fifty Fifty submitted a statement of opinion containing this content to the Seoul Central District Court Civil Division 50 (Chief Presiding Judge Park Beom-seok) on the same day.


The representative of Fifty Fifty stated, "The members and their families hold the position that they cannot return to the original agency Attract because it is not financially transparent," adding, "They conveyed the opinion that they are willing to negotiate with Attract on the premise of contract termination."


On the other hand, Attract insists that negotiations must be based on the members' return, so the dispute between the two sides is expected to be decided through an official trial. The court may propose specific conditions and enforce mediation, but if either party does not accept it, the trial procedure will resume.



Fifty Fifty filed an injunction on June 19, claiming that Attract failed to fulfill its obligations to provide settlement data and to manage the members' physical and mental health. The court referred the case to mediation with the intention of resolving the conflict through compromise and held a mediation session on the 9th, but no agreement was reached and the session was temporarily closed.
