FIFTY FIFTY Lawsuit Update Clears All Charges Against ATTRAKT CEO – Agency Strikes Back
In a turn of events that has the pop culture world buzzing, the cloud of controversy surrounding ATTRAKT’s CEO, Jeon Hong Joon, has finally cleared. Police investigations have absolved him of all breach of trust allegations, marking a pivotal moment in this high-profile case.
On March 11, ATTRAKT breathed a sigh of relief as they shared news of vindication. This announcement follows a suspenseful period after accusations surfaced last August, accusing CEO Jeon Hong Joon of misusing the group’s revenues.
In response to this decision, a representative from ATTRAKT shared their intention to pursue those who misled the members into filing the complaint. This stance also showcases the agency’s commitment to protecting its reputation and its artists.
“We received information from the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul. They have decided not to move forward with the breach of trust case that former FIFTY FIFTY members Saena, Sio, and Aran filed, without pressing any charges.
We’re committed to holding accountable those who misled the members, who weren’t savvy about the company’s financial dealings, and pushed them to file a complaint. We’ll take action against any attempts to interfere (like making contact before the exclusive contract ends) all the way through.

Ahn Sung Il Prosecuted + SBS “Unanswered Questions” Faces Sanctions: Justice Prevails?
So, does it mean that the justice has finally prevailed for ATTRAKT and FIFTY FIFTY’s reputation?
Previously, The Korea Communications Standards Commission (KCSC) recently gave a warning to the SBS show ‘Unanswered Questions’. This came after the show faced criticism for not treating a FIFTY FIFTY contract dispute episode fairly.
The episode, which aired last August, sparked viewer boycotts and industry protests due to perceived bias. Acknowledging their mistake, the production team then promised to be more careful in the future. Despite trying to show every side of the story, the missing key figures, including ATTRAKT’s CEO Jeon Hong Joon made things look one-sided.
Therefore, the KCSC pointed out that the show might have misled viewers and unfairly harmed reputations by not waiting for the court’s decision. They also heavily criticized the program, emphasizing the importance of staying neutral. And that is especially when legal matters are still unresolved. This controversy made the episode the most complained-about program to the KCSC from January to August of the previous year.
Meanwhile, the original producer of Kpop group FIFTY FIFTY, Ahn Sung Il, is now facing legal actions for his involvement in a controversial lawsuit. He had recently been sent to the prosecution for further proceedings. This development follows a complaint by ATTRAKT, leading to Ahn being found guilty of the accusations against him.
