[News] 111203 JYJ sent congratulatory message to Sejong law firm for its 30th anniversary
On Nov 30th, Sejong has celebrated the 30th anniversary of it founding at Westin Chosun Hotel in Sogong-dong, Seoul. Before this event, famous singers JYJ’s members’ congratulatory video was showed. They said, “During our very difficult time, thanks to Sejong, we were able to start our activities again. Next time, we hope that we can meet as younger brothers and brothers/sisters, not in case of incident/accident.”
“Incident/accident” refers to the fact that they have withdrawn from SM Entertainment’s affiliated group DBSK in 2009 and involved in a legal dispute. On their behalf, Sejong applied for injunction against SM Entertainment, demanded SM to do not interfere in breakaway members’ independent entertainment activities. The Court accepted this application in October 2009. SM Entertainment filed an objection against it but it was dismissed last February. With this winning (T/N: in original article, the journalist used “승소”, a legal term which means “win a case/lawsuit”), JYJ traveled with their concerts around Europe and Asia and have become one of the leaders of “Hallyu Fever”.
In 2009, Sejong formed a team wholly charged for events in entertainment industry, with lawyer Im Sang-hyuk and 5 other lawyers as main axis. On the behalf of JYP Entertainment, this team was responsible of various negotiations with Sony Japan, in order to sign a contract establishing local affiliated company. Early this year, they gave legal advice to DSP Media that was dealing with the declaration of leaving of KARA’s members. They also took charge of contract issue between actor Song Sae-byuk and JY Entertainment.
As entertainment industry has grown with “Hallyu Fever”, it became a trend that many law firms formed a team exclusively responsible for entertainment cases. Yulchon also has Cultural Industry team that engages in advisory activities for entertainment companies including SM Entertainment.

This gives us more information than we had before. Even though I admire HoMin’s savvy and their music is exquisite– I wish that all five had gone out together. Just imagine what they would be producing together by now. TT
Yes – if they had all been together, whether that means noone staying or noone leaving, their common catalog would have been as legendary as ever. But, at least we have our memories – and we have members who are healthy and hardworking and this is really all I need – is what I`m telling myself when it all seems a little bit unfair. ^_^
How are you all? Super-busy as Christmas is drawing near, right? 🙂 I hope you are all well. It looks beautiful in here, as always. And Cha, I just noticed the number of page views – AMAZING! In a year, you have soared along with the biggest JYJ – and TVXQ fanbases. I feel so proud to know of this site! But it makes me more shy of commenting… *^^* Also, there`s a bit of updating pressure involved, I suppose? Whereas I can pack up and leave without it being noticed, I assume you can`t – ! ^^ But I know you`re not considering that either, so I do not worry – and we will always support you guys! 😀
See you soon! I`m off with my long list to get a few errands done. ^_^
Hi YF. How dare you be shy around me. My Goodness! I’m speechless.
Truth to tell–I really don’t think about the numbers as pressure seeing as how they love to read but not write. Hint: Please don’t turn into only a reader.
Basically, I treat this site as a personal blog and if others can enjoy what I place here, then that’s a bonus. I also feel that as we repost from other’s sites it gives them advertisement. I find it to be fun.
BTW, I did notice that you were gone. You have been reworking the site and I haven’t been able to get in for a while. The colors are fantastic. Go Girl!
As to being busy, yeah, things are picking up a bit–but we decided to give more than get this Christmas which means that I am not approaching those horrible shopping scenarios. We are giving to the Mango Tree Project and Angel Tree.
I’m off with errands today for the Food Pantry at church so I’m going to post a few things and then run. Cya and Love You. Cha
